The human mind is quite central

to the occurrence of divine miracles

in two contrary ways.

Firstly, it is the mind that allows

one’s faith to leap across usual ‘reality’

propeled by desire, mystical insights and beliefs.

Finally, it is the mind

naturally attuned to

a perception and comprehension of

God’s inconceivable Grace and glories

that merits, causes and allows

the very occurrence of miracles.

But the mind thinks only because

the heart loves God

and the soul

yearns for its lost bliss

wedded to the Being

that existed before It sired creation.

The mystery is resolved

only when the self

awakens to God

by transcending its human ego.

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.

Divine Proximity Naturally Induces Humility. {151.}

It is only by

transcending one’s human ego

and nullifying one’s self

that one can possibly deserve God.

Proximity to God naturally induces

humility in the blessed soul.

One beholds the divine vision,

and realizes one’s sheer insignificance

in the infinite cosmic order,

in a manner of speaking.

Even the faith, godly proximity,

especial abilities and unique accomplishments

that the inspired may possess

are essentially gifts from God. 

The sincere soul remains humble

and immeasurably grateful to God.

Who Says I Am Human? {149.}

There is really little need

for the twain to meet,

since there exists,

no dichotomy or schism anyway.

It’s all in the mind,

the self breeding its ego,

a false perception of a remote God somewhere inaccessible,  

and the difference of others out there.

The mystical being is united

with God just as it is

with Her entire creation.

Having chosen birth as a human,

being alive and apparently living

as a human,

I temporarily somewhat succumbed

to the illusion

of my being a human.

Who says I am human?

Who can, with any semblance at honesty,

even presume to regard me a human,

at least as all the others are?

It is time for truth.

It is time for honesty.

I shackled my own infinite soul

with the bonds of false beliefs,

and sought my freedom

despite no slavery ever having been.

Ah, is the human verily foolish!  

Indeed, let the truth free one.

The hour of my transcendence draws near,

I delight at the joy

of final fusion with my eternal Beloved.

Tear away the blinkers from my eyes,

let all doubt and confusion forever end.

The devotee celebrates God’s glory,

rejoices in His numerous miracles,

and the furtherance of

His most glorious Mission

of universal salvation.

Please note that I wrote the above

essentially as a mystical realization,

and certainly do not literally claim godliness;

though the twilight mystical existence

between the human and God,

between life and its consummation,

does not allow of descriptions quite rational.

Beware: This Blog is Magical! {130.}

Radhasoami!

This humble blog is overpoweringly magical.
This need not quite astonish anyone,
since miracles come naturally to God.

The Name Radhasoami is divine.
God’s Awareness & Grace Sanctify
the words this blog contains.

A home is but a house
until love renders it a home.
A temple is a mere building
unless God’s Awareness & Grace descend.

This blog is a blessed blog.

Any visitor to this blog
shall leave it subtly transformed.
She or he may not
realize, believe, or accept it;
but her or his destiny
shall stand altered --
fundamentally & irrevocably.

Beyond the human ego,
at the plane of the soul,
Grace shall work through this blog
to tug the readers’ souls Godward.
As water naturally flows down,
the soul aspires to fly towards God.
This blog shall serve as the impetus
that hastens your spiritual evolution.

I'm the insignificant & imperfect tool
that but honestly attempts to transcribe
what the Awesome Living Force Wills.

I humbly await, O Parent of all,
Your Miracles Performed
for Your most glorious Mission
of universal salvation.

Remain, Live True to Yourself. {49.}

****
Radhasoami!

The self hides the Self,
and the Self is God.

Seek your self, beyond your ego.

Know and understand yourself.

Only then can you be,
remain and live
true to yourself.

This doesn’t necessarily
mean becoming “selfish”.

I have usually found myself to be
at odds with the milieu.

I was either a round peg
in a square hole,
or a square peg
in a round hole.

Mere friction, disharmony and strife;
never to my liking,
to no purpose whatsoever.

I remained myself.
I survived people and life.
That was victory.

The beautiful lady is resented and hated
by all the other less pretty ones,
for no fault of hers.

Despite the malice and baseness
that one encounters in life,
one must continue with one’s
goodness, faith, devotion and service.

It is pointless to yield
to those who are incorrigibly
wrong, perverse, sinful and hostile.

Be clear and remain strong.
After all, the endless Source
of all Wisdom and Strength
remains our Guide and Redeemer.

Life is quite a silly nightmare
that shall end once the surat or soul
finally reaches Radhasoami Dham.

Humility Alone Kills One's Ego. {34.}

****
Radhasoami!

The trait of humility has been stressed
ad infinitum in our religion.
What does humility really mean?
Why is humility so important?

Humility cannot mean pretending
to have no ego at all.
We all have our egos
& it serves various purposes.
Indeed, civilized life
would be virtually impossible
were ego to vanish altogether
from human society & life.
Imagine every person walking off
with another’s goods just because
nobody had any “ego” left.
Jungle law would prevail thereby,
leading to chaos, strife, misery.
Obviously, this cannot be meant by ego,
so, what is actually meant by it?

The ego is the gravest threat
to the soul’s quest for God & salvation.
It intrudes in one’s spiritual practices
& prevents a quicker & closer Darshan,
or beholding of the Divine Countenance.

The ego causes the human to succumb to the
other four “dooth” or demons of
kaam, krodha, lobha & moha,
or lust, anger, greed & attachment.

These five together combine to keep the soul
enmeshed in sensual & worldly quicksand
for years & decades & lifetimes & eons.

So, victory over these can occur only if
you first destroy their leader, or ego.

The ego gets destroyed by true humility.

True humility is realizing
one’s innate human imperfections & limitations.

This causes a dependence upon one’s Guru,
which in turn evokes His Grace.

When the ego is annihilated,
you become quite free from
the other four named baser tendencies.
You are then secure
& headed fast towards your salvation.

Therefore, one’s ego is one’s greatest enemy,
& cultivating true humility benefits
only one’s own self incalculably.

The Ego is a Cage. {26.}

****
Radhasoami!

The human ego
acts as a virtual cage,
imprisoning the soul
within the narrow confines
of a limited believed ‘self’.

The soul remains one with the SuperSoul.
The self is connected with all the other selves.

The human ego sets up
false differences, barriers, hostility, clashes ...

Sure, individuality is a fact,
as one’s own primary responsibility,
but the essential unity
between God & all beings
ought to be well realized.

Radhasoami!
