Sri Aakassdeep`s message of the day :
Note: This talk is only for advanced seeker of truth.
Life is like a seed, full of potentiality. It is neither the beginning, nor the end. Until one becomes enlightened, there will be many lives, many waves, humans come from God and return to God. Until they return to their original source, soul can never be peaceful and calm. Until soul becomes united with the supreme soul, soul will always feel, something is missing. Always feel the pain in the heart. It is just like a seed always missing to become the tree, bring the flower and fruit and bring the new seed. People by trying to console themself, by holding some material property or relation, but they will never be in peace and happiness. For a time-being, they might forget, but pain will return. Soul have 3 stages, 1. seed-stage, 2. tree-stage, 3. flowering-stage. As long man live and die in seed-form, man will always remain hankering in sexuality. Sexuality can never go beyond body. Body is very grasp, because of this, love can never happen there. Next comes mind, through mind or heart, one can experience love. Through love one experience little bit glimpse of grace, but still it remains impossible to experience grace until soul meet with the supreme soul. When soul meet with supreme consciousness, then grace showers to the soul and soul experience a unworldly experience. The stage of loving. Through physical relation, love can never be possible. It is something like you try to dissolve 2 icecube, but it will not be possible. But when icecube become water, they can melt and become one, same way, as long physically one will search for love and grace, it will not be possible. But, through finding God by melting in God will be possible. From oceanic happiness one can melt and become united. Only who is grouping in sex, they look for each others body, but when love happens in life, they don`t look for each others body. Two lovers look for some third point and that third point is divinity. By meeting with two physical body's is called lust or kame. Lust and kame always brings sorrow, fight and depression. One can try again and again, but it will always bring disappointment. It never happens fulfillment. By uniting the feeling love happens. In love, it is the union of the two heart, it is beyond the body relation, but unfortunately feeling always fluctuates, as a result, feeling will rise and fall. It will be like a wave of water. Sometimes it can turn to silence. No wave. So, love is momentary. But, through love journey starts, because through love one experience glimpse of devotion and grace. Grace and devotion is like a cloud in the sky. Devotion is like a cloud floating in the sky of grace. In devotion, sometimes it will be in one shape, sometimes in different shape, but when it will grow bigger and bigger and on one point, it will shower like rain and bring shower of happiness in life. It is ultimate flowering of the soul. Meera says, as long you are grouping in sex and body you can never enter in the temple of devotion and grace. The people are grouping in sex, are like those insects, crawling on the ground, they will not look up the sky and will not see the beauty of the stars in the sky. Devotion and grace is beyond word to express, but Meera gives comparison with different things and stages of moods to give a touch and taste of happiness, one experience, when soul unite with God. It is almost impossible to share this experience whom never experienced God in his life. But those are seekers of truth, when they drop all the external rubbish from their life, drop the identification of mind, then they move inwards, that is the starting of their advanced journey and stage. In this stage, they might not be able to experience grace, but some experience they will experience of happiness and joy, that will be something very beautiful and sweet. But they will not be able to figure it out what it is. It is something like, before the rain a cool breeze blows. A beautiful feeling arises in the heart, rain not yet arrived, but one can feel that rain is coming. Same way when beloved will be ready, lover (God) just on the way to meet with his devotee. Amar Kahyan wrote many beautiful poems about this stage. Here soul and God become two lovers, but ordinary people did not understand that. This stage is only for those are in advanced stage of spiritual journey. In this stage, ones feeling need to be like a pure gold. Need to be 100 % pure gold. Even 1 % of physical or worldly cannot do. It need to be pure spiritual. Here God word will not work, or a idea of God will not work. One need to feel God in his heart 24 hours. One need to feel him in his every breathe. Sufis says, all the souls are feminin only Gods are male. They call God their lover. So many beautiful cazal has been written about that relation. Meera, Nanak, Chaitanah experience this relations and sing many songs about it. When this happens to ones life, then whole life becomes a dance of love. That`s why Meera was dancing on the road of Rajastan. Chaitanah was dancing in Bengal. It happens always. In India when peoples goes mental, they call them mad and when one experience this stage, that time they also call him mad. But when one fall in love with God, this madness is so beautiful. In India when someone reach to this stage, people from sunrise to sunset will come and keep on kissing the feet of this lovers. They believe, just by touching the feet of this lovers, one can touch the feet of God, or kiss the feet of God. It is a very mysterious stage, if it happens, to ones whole life blossoms. It is a very drunk stage. All alcohol or drugs are nothing in front of this drunkness. J. Rumi says God keep on pouring the wine of grace and he is keep on drinking. He want to remain in this drunkness forever. He even not interested to go to heaven, if he can remain in this blessfull stage. So much grace showering and flowing all around him. When one unite with supreme existence, that is the most graceful experience of ones life. The ultimate fulfillment of soul. This is the art of devotion. With this art, one can live his whole life in the ocean of happiness.
Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti.
