Lead Me On, My Faith! {142.}


Radhasoami Dayal Ki Daya
Radhasoami Sahai

May Compassionate Radhasoami Shower His Grace
May Radhasoami Help
****

Radhasoami!
****

I know nought of God
for all my years and decades
of earnest, solitary striving.

All I possess of God
is but my sincere faith.

So, lead me on,
my genuine quest,
my deep longing,
my intense yearning,
to my Supreme Parent Radhasoami Dayal!

This is the best and most
that any devotee remains capable of.

The Soul Is God Within. {137.}

Radhasoami!
****


The soul is God within one’s being.


Does the soul really exist?


Scientific attempts to locate the soul
have apparently failed miserably so far.


If a thing cannot be proved to exist,
that does not ipso facto prove
that it does not exist altogether.


The way to God is through the soul.


The soul is the divine spark
latent in every being.


The soul can be accessed
through meditation, if performed rightly
under the tutelage of a living Master.


Mysticism will yield all the answers
that humanity sorely needs
and science cannot provide.


The quest for truth involves
tapping into one’s own soul,
and exploring the divine realms
that the soul can reach.


There is nothing without
that’s not already within!


God, I shall yet know Thee
in awakening my own soul internally.

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.

Only God Can Truly Satisfy. {93.}

****
Radhasoami!

Even if you get
what you’re now wanting,
you won’t be satisfied.

Life is a progression
of desires, responsibilities, duties.

Life is frequently a choice
merely between sundry evils.

I know that everything truly
real, beautiful, noble,
desirable, blissful, eternal,
can exist only in God.

I seek little from life,
I expect little from life,
so am rarely overly disappointed.

My essential quest is divine,
its only mode is meditation,
Grace does naturally work miracles,
God tugs the sincere closer.

It is reassuring to know
the curtains will finally fall
on this life’s senseless plays,
and I’ll be home again.

Radhasoami!
