Stirrings and Musings within Me. {156.}

Radhasoami!
****

Oh, help me, my Supreme Parent
arrive unto You at the earliest!

There are now stirrings within me
evoking words from a mystical well
too deep for me to fathom.

I feel I am steadily evolving
beyond disease, health, my very body,
into another aura sired by my resonating prayers
that can instantly heal or wreak
all that it pleases.

There is an intuitiveness  
manifesting through my mind
that knows every truth there is
the unalloyed truth
the whole truth
shorn of distortion or verbiage.

Every mystery now stands resolved
and every question implicitly answered.
I have met and mated with the truth
and she is God.

I am amazingly moving
beyond sleep and wakefulness
into a continuing trance
that permeates my living.

I am inexorably transcending
beyond life and death
into a loftier realm
where the twilight glows  
and the words infinity and eternity
have been fully realized.

I mock sorrow and joy alike
serene in a bliss that heralds
nascent paradise to me.

Like all life so far
this, too, shall soon pass
and the path ahead lit
by God’s growing potent Grace.

God’s Melodies Compel Mystical Union. {152.}

Radhasoami!
****

Yes, this is it,
quite tantalizingly close, anyway.

The whirl subsides,
the Beauty draws.

Mystically dancing by the very 
edge of limited human reality; 
as the ego gets beheaded,
I eerily slide off it,  
into the abyss that contains
heavens yielding their unalloyed truths.

The fulcrum that governs life,
the seat of the soul,
God’s aspect nascent within me,
face to face with God,
reborn into a functional force.

I transcend life’s measly bondage,
gliding among the eternal skies
of infinite awareness, consciousness, and
the bliss of reclaimed Home.

Radhasoami!

I am nought save in my faith.
I think of nothing else.
I value only God’s Pleasure.
I desire only redemption soon.
I speak only about mysticism.
I do but serve Mission.

I am shut to all else
and singlemindedly concentrated on my goal.

The inevitable has to occur,
is happening now,
and will naturally continue
until my faith stands fully consummated.

God shall really become and prove
the reality and experience
to my entire life and fate.  

So, let Grace work miracles,
even as I humbly pray
to the Supreme Force that causes
this entire existential play.

My impulse to mysticism may be summarized thus well:
Life is essentially just not worth living;  
And right, final and early death is eminently desirable.

Radhasoami!

in loneliness i recklessly 
delved deep within myself
until there was no i
to even experience feeling alone.

whom they all call god
is my being;
i have realized the truth
but life thralls me yet.

i long for the freedom
that was mine before birth
and i shall triumph
in challenging, transcending death.

god is a mere
state of my being.
and paradise the home
all exiled yearn for.

I Just Want Out Fast. {138.}

Radhasoami!
****


This life seems got not of my asking
I withdraw from it into my own being.


I seek to be neither beggar nor king
Evolved beyond need of thought, emotion, talking, doing.


My best hours are spent but in meditating
Deaf to the world, hearing celestial bells ringing.


Nothing worthwhile has ever come free or easy
Redemption needs deep faith, perseverance bred of sincerity.


Life is a nightmare that cannot long last
Help me Lord, I just want out fast!

Life is Akin to Hell. {134.}

Radhasoami!
****


A pig can be content
to wallow in the muck.


So, human contentment is hardly
an absolute measure
of one’s state of existence.


God, paradise, salvation,
and such words
have obviously remained mere words
despite umpteen divine incarnations worldwide,
many global religions,
and centuries of humanity’s
apparent quest for a veritable utopia.


Humanity is confused and floundering,
drowned in its own flood
of meaningless knowledge.


You’ve got to know
just what you’re missing
to truly want it.


The rare soul
who sincerely yearns for God
naturally believes in the hereafter
perhaps as all fail to.


To such a one,
life does become akin to hell
and eternal bliss draws her
across the threshold of life.


I fear this world seems destined
to witness many a disaster yet
before frolicking humanity really needs to:
believe in the beyond,
desperately turn to God,
and earnestly strive for its redemption.

Close Your Eyes to Life. {133.}

Radhasoami!
****


Now, this is a tricky statement, indeed.


Closing one’s eyes to life
hardly seems like an ideal solution
to its umpteen ills,
or the most sensible mode to consummate it,
or to even truly transcend it.


However, instead of indulging in
mere intellectual satisfaction
to the detriment of truth
{yes, that is very possible!}, 
let’s try and get
what I’m trying to put across.


God and meditation and redemption
are enabled only through life
yet remain beyond it
and involve its transcendence.


Life is not the ultimate reality,
nor the best existence possible.


Life is a transitory state,
which the enlightened employ for their salvation.


The Buddha’s memorable last words on earth
perhaps cannot be bettered:
“All composite things pass away.
Strive for your own liberation with diligence.”


Life is just life -- 
dismally, incorrigibly, hopelessly -- 
even if one discusses God,
or the route to salvation;
the true journey has not begun yet.


The actual treading of the path
in meditation
is internal, solitary, lonely;
with one’s eyes closed
to life in its entirety,
both its best and worst.


God is beyond life.
Meditation is beyond life.
Salvation is beyond life.


Life cannot lead you to the afterlife,
unless you employ it rightly,
by denying it,
and seeking to transcend it rightly
through the prescribed techniques of meditation,
under the tutelage of
a living true master.


Well, well, nothing seems simple or easy.
There are too many usages
of such words as 
‘right’, ‘rightly’, ‘prescribed’, and ‘true’ 
in the preceding paragraph. 
And pray, who determines  ‘rightness
and how exactly?


Once you have yearned for God, 
you cannot go back to 
square one again; 
your transcendence is rendered fated. 


God is the supermagnet
that loves Her children.


If you really want God,
just trust that you will 
be magically guided towards Her.


Remain true to your being
and honest in your quest.


As Goethe observed in Faust,
“For he who is unceasing in his striving
is ours for his redeeming.”

Stop … Pause Awhile … Wonder … Think! {132.}

Radhasoami!
****


Halt!
Pause awhile.


Stop living your usual life.
Take a break from routine.


You’ve been doing it for too long enough.
Have you got what you desired or expected?
Are you headed in the right direction?
Will this lead you to your destination?


The unreflected life is measly existence
or a brutish engagement
in the senseless ratrace
that characterizes most life.


Get out of the rut.
Accept that you are yet alien to God,
remote from the possibility
of your salvation,
and guarantee of attaining paradise.


This world is a temporary station,
decreed by the gods for destruction.


Life is but an illusory reality.


Tap into your innermost being,
you shall access the divine spark ,
which is your priceless soul.


This world is mere quicksand
and life a fleeting chance
for you to realize God.


Prove that you are a being
made in the likeness of God --
aware, enlightened, responsible, moral --
by valuing and persevering for your redemption
seriously, rightly, earnestly, determinedly, intensely, ….


Take a break
from your way of living,
and invent another
more adequate for your salvation.

None of This is It. {127.}

None of This is It. {127.}
****

Radhasoami!

There’s something fractured and dissatisfactory
about life that is frustrating.

The best of experiences still lack
that certain something real, desired, meaningful.

Human language proves utterly inadequate
if one aspires to describe
the most sublime of experiences;
expression remains denied to me.

I cannot help constantly feeling
it’s on the other side;
call it God, reality, truth,
bliss, completeness, eternity, salvation, paradise.

Beyond the threshold of life,
across the embrace of death,
perhaps awaits my Supreme Parent,
I strive with that trust,
longing to transcendentally leap across.

Death is the Final Beloved. {126.}

Death is the Final Beloved. {126.}
****

Radhasoami!

The world is too unreal and perishable.

Life is too fractured and fleeting.

The self is one’s responsibility.

God alone is real, desirable and important.

One’s soul alone matters eternally.

Meditation is the most worthwhile activity possible.

The goal is one’s final salvation ensured.

Death is merely crossing over
from life into the afterlife.

Death is the only embrace that can
lead one to divine bliss,
if one has striven rightly
for redemption during one’s lifetime.

So, let my love for my Maker
daw me inexorably towards Him.

Ah, Death, my final beloved,
I long for your kiss.

Radhasoami!
