Guest guest Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Can we understand reality by merely relying on our five senses? Can we understand this gigantic and ancient universe with its countless stars, planets and living beings through our puny mind and limited intelligence? Can we reach out and grasp eternal truths through our conditioned and selfish ego? Certainly not. What is this world? Who am I? How do I know that 'I' exist? 'What' are 'we' ‘observing’? What is being observed, who is the observer and what is this act of observing? If all matter is energy, is it possible that it is our mind that is transforming this energy into objects of perception? Are we all part of and perceiving nothing but an eternal stream of energy? If all objects of matter arise from and subside into energy, then is not this energy the only real, absolute and eternal object. Everything else then is a mistaken interpretation arising from our limited mind and ego. The observer, observed and act of observing are nothing but this eternal energy-consciousness. If we realize that, we and everything around us is a manifestation of the same divine energy, how can we develop ill will towards any other being? Our lives will be filled with love. If we lose our false self and regain this consciousness our fears, doubts and desires will vanish. Beloved Father, teach us. O Jagat Guru, forgive our ignorance and mistakes. Give us Your Grace to realize You as our inner Consciousness, through which we perceive You as this external universe. Light the Knowledge and dispel the ignorance in our hearts. May we be always conscious of your presence. May your golden feet lead us from darkness to light.
