Living in the Presence of God (Vol I/Pt I - 71)

[Guest guest]

CHAPTER 71

The clothes that acquire a stain have to be washed several times before the stain begins its process to lighten, and with each wash, the stain takes its leave - leaving only lesser behind, until one day, the clothes show complete disappearance of the stain. Similarly, the process of your purification will take several washings - washings in your repentance, your efforts, your determination to accept sorrows and sufferings, and your simple vow

of ending all karmas by the renunciation of all desires, by overcoming every weakness of the mind, by remaining unaffected with the temptful senses and by surrendering to the will of the Lord and accepting His will as your command. All that exists, all that lives, must find its own awareness - the bliss of the self. Your lives have become only the existence, without the awareness of the truth, and where the truth remains blind folded, existence becomes only a suffering - Yes! The suffering of tangible attachments that makes the illusion of fears a dreadful reality. Awareness will only

come when the existence begins to search its true purpose and finds unfulfillment in every step he takes in his everyday routine. The lesson of purification will begin its teaching, when you will accept and open its book to the first chapter of "Sacrifice". A lot

must be given away - and given up, before even the image of purity will

begin to appear before you. The doors to anger must close completely, the fire of jealousy must be exhausted forever, the mask of false pride must peel away, and with every such impurity that is offered to Me, you,

My dears, will begin to experience your first taste of the nectar of purity. It is only when you are able to 'recognize' your own impurities,

will you be able to offshoot them and attain purity. To understand the glory of the sunlight, you must first experience the light, only then, will you welcome the brilliance of day light. The spirit of sacrifice is

nothing but extracting your very own poisons - Yes! You must be the snake charmer that allows each poisonous snake within you to dance to the tune of divine music - the music of divine virtues, strong character, and unshakeable faith in your ability to become God. The second chapter in this process of purification lies in being

ever content, at all times, in total acceptance of God's divine will. Purity will not come with sacrifice that immediately expects its rewards

and becomes unrestful, as the response of God seems silent. Know for certain, that one day, God will respond, but until then, your determination must not weaken with another's comparison in the spiritual

path.Once you have experienced momentary peace, the third chapter in purity must continue its battle within, so that the God found must not be lost, ever again. Know that anger, jealousy, pride, hatred, envy, will continue to knock upon the closed doors - remain deafened, and let the truth that you have experienced stare eye to eye until the fear of their deceit will make them flee, only to return for another attempt. To stay pure, you must not fail in keeping the Lord enclosed in your home, at all times.

Make service your path to meeting with purity. Serve in silence, there must be no pomp or showiness involved. Service must humble you and fill you with love and compassion by revealing to you that you are surrounded by sufferings and that each one's pain is the same pain that makes your own heart bleed. The difference lies only outward, but each one lives in the same delusion and ignorance in which you have found your own self in. With your love and kindness, develop true knowledge that the pain, too, lies only outward and that the true self will only experience bliss under all circumstances and under any roof of suffering. Healing the wounds of others will only close each wound of yours, forever, and your self-pity will turn into universal compassion. Your worries will seem smaller, My dears, when you will serve the worries of the world! Start to reflect your purity by not denying your present state of impurity. Live to be aware - aware of your own several faces that convince you of your false purity. Live, my dears, to be aware - aware that you must find the one face of truth, only the one face of all - in each self! Existence must be in constant awareness of the self, and it is the truth of awareness that will allow you to climb the quick steps to purity.- Divine Messages received and recorded by Mrs Seema M
