Living In The Presence of God (VolII/PtII)-Chapter 27

[Guest guest]

CHAPTER 27 Purity that is planned Is only an impure scheme Of the evil trail of thoughts Stop the planning! Simply implement its Will in your effort And its spontaneous nature Will awaken, I promise The Divine self In this very manifestation! A calm and peaceful mind is the mirror of a pure heart. Bad thoughts do not arise, spontaneously - they come, when one constantly indulges in the uncontrolled flow of his passions and desires. Hence, never, ever, blame the time nor the circumstances for your harsh behavior. Such a response comes, only when one has already dwelt, nurtured and been nourished by the poisons of one's own weak character. Hatred has made man behave like a savage beast that has been left loose to devour the fearful, the feeble and the meek! Such horrifying freedom has made one bound to the misery of his own unrestrained and undirected acts. Blinded by this ignorance, he is unable to see that the faults and the weaknesses are only in him! In his very thoughts! In his every expression! And in his every way of possessive love! Hatred comes, My child, when one lives

in the resentment of his own fears - of his worldly gains and losses. Hatred is nothing but the terrible insecurity of paying for one's own hidden wrongs. The insecurity grows, so much so, that one is determined to even destroy his own self - the very nature of his life, only to protect the gnawing fear within him. The one that sleeps upon the bed of fears will only dream the nightmare of the fictitious, unknown attack. Such an unstable one will wake up - will gather the arms to defend himself in the reality from the attack of the unreal dream. He will blame, wound and attack the innocent and will justify his behavior by swearing upon the reality of his dream! How foolish indeed! Thoughts that have only fear are unreal like the experience of a nightmare while deep asleep. The only difference between the two scenes is that fear is the vision of the one whose heart is asleep - the frightening

dream is only the vision of the one whose body is at rest! To overcome hatred for another, one has to learn to love and respect his own self! The dislike is an expression of one's own lack of inner fulfillment. Hence, realize, My child, that contentment comes, when one is eternally grateful for whatever he has and for whatever comes his way. Do not expect ideal behavior from another. Such expectation comes from the most imperfect being! A person that truly lives by the pure and high ideals of the self will only look at his own effort to bring unity in any task or duty! Resist, at all times, the need to argue - to fight - to criticize - and bring within the inner home the bliss of silence! Do not worry if the love in the relationship is mutual. That, itself, brings the basket of worries and undue fears!

Time, My child, is quicker than the blink of the eye! Do not waste its precious gift by spending it in the bitterness of howling resentments. Peace comes, when one forges all and remembers only the love! Pain is a part of every attachment - Peace is the fullness of pure love! Hence, undo the attachment by shedding all its fears and envelope yourselves in the purity of the divine bond between each soul. Learn that you can give much more, when you don't receive. The moment you receive a price for your love, remember, you have lost the true value of its purity!Source : LIVING IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD (Volume II/Part II)
