God is Waiting for Us

The curtain that is seen between God and us, the distance that is seen, the separation that is perceived, is in fact our own creation, not God's doing, as God is Omnipresent and is present at all times. Not only that, He is closer than our assumed sense of My-ness. He is present As-is even in the most fallen and degraded ones as well. Therefore spiritual aspirants must want that they should accept their Beloved within themselves, and become free from all anxiety or worries "nischint". When besides God there is acceptance of no other entity, then an aspirant will attain his Beloved within himself. However, as long as within remains the assumption - "I am the body" till then he will attain nothing but the world.

He who sees His Beloved in other individuals, in saints and great souls, in scriptures etc, he will have to experience separation from his Beloved. However, he who sees his Beloved within himself, he does not have to suffer the separation with his beloved. However close you may see your Beloved when seen as separate, there will most definitely be feeling of separation. However, when the Beloved is seen as inseparable (within us) then an eternal affinity is established. As long as the aspirant's inner senses perceive the existence of many, till then he cannot experience an eternal affinity with his Beloved, rather he wanders from place to place in this world to attain his Beloved.

An aspirant should never feel a sense of hopelessness with the real essence (tattva), because the aspirant has complete eligibility, rights and potential for realization of the supreme truth. It is a rule that he who can enjoy worldly pleasures, he can also turn away from the world and experience bliss. He who can develop attachment and aversion in the world, he can also renounce attachment and aversion and be able to truly love as well. He who can engage in sense pleasures, he can also renounce pleasures and be able to attain "Yog" (equanimity). He who has the ability to adopt, also has the ability to denounce.

Man endowed with desires can never love anyone. Therefore a man of desires cannot be a true believer in God. Man becomes a true believer in God, when in his eyes besides the one Beloved (God) –nothing else remains. Such a true believer attains Love by God's grace. Although God's grace is showering equally on all beings, then too that grace is only experienced when man entirely becomes only God's. Not accepting the existence of anyone else, is becoming God's.

Besides the One God, there is no one else who is my Beloved (Lover). When besides God when we love anyone else, then that love destroys "sanhaar" you and the other. This is not love, it is attachment. It is only the Love for one's own country that destroys "sanhaar" other countries; attachment to one's own organization / group that destroys "sanhaar" other organizations; attachment to one's own race, caste, type, "jaati" that destroys other race, caste, type, "jaati".

If besides the one God, if all other wants are renounced, then God will come without our calling and the world will disappear for you without trying. Hope of His attainment in the future is a mistake. One must serve others. Let there not be the slightest bit of affinity with the body and the world - this is true "renunciation" and besides That One God, do not accept the existence of anyone else, not even the slightest bit - this itself is Love.

He who is filled with desire, that being alone cannot love. Because desires are of the world and Love is of God. Man filled with desires is a worshipper of worldly sense objects. Whereas a man filled with Love, is a worshipper of God. The worshipper of the world becomes dependent and the worshipper of God becomes independent. (to be continued)
