Perseverance Eventually Leads to Success. {87.}

****
Radhasoami!

Faith is a taxing and exacting matter.

One needs believe, abide by values,
and patiently wait for resultant rewards.

Sure, causality works,
and the law finally consummates.

But humans are limited, weak,
and human lifespans are brief.

So, now that you are
attached to the right faith,
keep clinging on to it,
and striving towards your Maker.

The rest of life will
basically just not really matter.

Remain clear about your priorities.

One’s faith reflects one’s proximity to God,
and evokes God’s Grace accordingly.

So, persevere in your faith,
final consummation will be yours!

Radhasoami!

Do It; Regardless of Expectations. {73.}

****
Radhasoami!

“Dekho chahe na Dekho, Soami /
Main apni si kiye jaungi.”

Attaboy; that’s the spirit!

That is,
“I will continue my devotions,
I will continue my services,
whether You See or not
{meaning basically,
whether You Reward or not}.”

Well, I for one, have really been
long living these Paath or hymn lines.

I am proving it even now
in my writing these very words.

However, Soami Dekhte Hain
{the Lord Does See}.
I know it well because Gracious Huzur
had Amply Proven it n times to me,
& even Maalik now has no less.

But this really is the spirit
with which Satsangis must
perform their sundry acts of faith.

Be free of expectations.
All that I do
is merely my integrity.

You May See or not.
You May Be Pleased or not.
You May Reward or not,
at least as I might fathom it.

You Are Beyond my humble,
imperfect, insignificant, undeserving, powerless self.

& the Supreme Lord always Sees everything!
Rewards, if deserved, must take their time.

Radhasoami!
