Strange Life of Karmas between Loved Ones




Me : So is this necessary ?

Voice : What ?

Me : Differences and hostility between people who love each other ?

Voice : No

Me : Then why do you let it happen ?
I know its all working out of Karmas, etc and I know you play a big part here, but can you keep those bitter moments outside this wonderful relationship ? I mean if I have to get mean, I would rather take it out on some stranger outside than on someone I love - That way you get me to work my karmas but I prevent my close ones from pain and anguish.

Voice : Hmm...interesting. Work those karmas but risk that working on somebody you can 'afford to' ?

Me : Yeah! Cause I reckon all these arising differences are to work these Karmas!

Voice : Let me offer you a perspective. Let's say some stranger treated your wife with disrespect. Out of love for your wife, you obviously stand up for her and confront the other man. This escalates and now you have a full fledged feud with all three involved. Now, this has no boundaries since its 'outside your' personal space and you defend your unrestricted response and fuel the escalation. This now possibly further opens doors to more people getting involved in this. What you have now is a full blown mess with fresh karmic entanglements and more people involved.

Whereas, I prefer to keep the despair, anguish, angry bouts between closed ones who love each other - not only have I 'restricted' it between two people, I have also contained the drama that could have been much worse with emotions running high. This may appear cruel at times, but trust this is My Compassion for you. I love you and I have to free you from the bondage of karma and also protect you from incurring unnecessary karmic baggage. Its important that you know I have facilitated the escalation and it is I who will prompt the de-escalation, the moment the purpose is served.

For this, I often present opportunities between closed ones to exercise love over hate, forgiveness over resentment, deeper understanding over irritation, kindness over bitterness, trust over jealousy,  and giving instead of receiving.

Me : Its a strange life of Karmas between the loved ones.....always our loved ones..

Moment in a Cup






Me : Imagine when tea is a perfect blend of all ingredients, the fragrance of fresh tea leaves, aromatic steam from the cup, the silence of the moment, the most spectacular views around, prefect cool breeze, empty mind, heart filled with love - all in my reserved cup. Its a moment when you want nothing but be in the present. 
Nothing from the past would matter. Nothing about the future would bother. Its living and dying in an instant. 

I find that hard to explain. Its not just a cup of tea anymore for me…..

Voice : Hmm.

Me : Strangely, my only passive and peaceful quest. Would that be a wasted life ?

Voice : That perfect cup of tea will lead you to yourself. You could spend your whole life looking for one, and it would not be a wasted life.

World War III





Me : Let me just ask you straight up…are we gonna have a third world war ?  


Voice : What do you believe ? 


Me :  Yes or No ? 


Voice : The third world war has already begun. 


Me : Talking about this earth ?


Voice :  The third world war has begun and is taking place inside each one of you. The inner-war this time will be fierce and there will be no room for keeping things under the carpet. People will be subjected to inner conflicts like they have never experienced before. No one will be spared. Inner turmoil will drive mankind to seek relief. 


Boundaries will break and all your relationships with health, money, family, friends, planet earth and your ownself will be questioned. You will question your own existence and you will be desperate to seek answers. 


Watch around you and notice the turmoil within everyone. Greater the inner resistance - greater will be the suffering.  

The first reflection is the wave of natural disasters, civil unrests, climate change, depletion of natural resources, economic crises, rise of human diseases - this is all manifestation of inner conflicts. 

I can see the world war has already begun, but because you relate to wars with explosions, bombs, missiles, jet fighters, bloodshed, killings - you fail to recognize it. 


Every wave of anger is a explosion, ever feeling of hatred is a missile, every act of selfishness is gun fighting, every act of greed is bloodshed and every choice made to reject Divinity is added human suffering. 

You relate to the usual visual drama of war and hence this unseen battle misses everyone’s eye.  

War is just an external manifestation. The conflict first emerges inside you and when the when conflicts within rise, when hate, anger and selfishness touch unsustainable levels, you will create a full blown war. 


Me : Do I stock up with ammunition ? 


Voice : Good idea to do that right away. 


Me : Any ideas ?


Voice : Stock up with plenty of cannon balls of love and begin the firing immediately. Meet all resistance in the world with Love. Bomb the world with repeated blows of love-grenades. There is no weapon more powerful than Love. Distribute this ammunition with everyone.


Me : Haha. So the war can stop ? 


Voice : Its in your hands. Bring peace within you and the war can cease.


Me : What if don't find the peace within ?


Voice : Ask, what is that you seek in your life ? Contemplate and you will find that what you seek is seeking you. Peace will come.


Me : There are so many things my mind is busy with…. 


Voice : The most important things for your soul is pushed to some distant time. The heart is traded for numerous wants.


Me : Hmm….


Voice : You are at an important period on this planet. Life, as you have been living will not be the same. 

Be aware of what you sow. The time is now.

'Bad' Thoughts and 'Bad' Deeds




Voice : Looks like you felling low ?  

Me : Yep

Voice : Can I help ? 

Me : Now you want to help ?? Couldn't you have prevented it in the first place ? I have been trying to remember God and take His name as much as I can every day. Its not working for me. I just got so angry with someone. I just flipped out, went berserk and this side of me disgusts me ! 

Voice : So ? 

Me : So ?? What do you mean - 'So' ? Do you like me showing this side ??

Voice : I love you. Nothing will change my love for you.

Me : Right now I feel myself so distant from you. With all the spirituality in the world and so-called connection to divinity, I am just worse than anyone else. My 'so called equipoise’ is such a farce!

Voice : Hmm…so thats what you feel.  

Me : I have been on the spiritual path for so long. How do you explain if my anger, greed, hatred, lust, pride, envy, irritations, fears, anxiety are all having a damn field day ??? Why haven’t they just disappeared ??? Where is the damn spiritual growth in this after so many years ?

And let me not even get started on those thoughts ! If there was a big screen showing my thoughts to the world..my entire spiritual journey would be the biggest joke for everyone to laugh at my expense ! And yes, I meditate for 2 hours every day !!   

Voice : Ah ha. You want spiritual growth or God ? 

Me : Now, how the hell is that different ?

Voice : Its very different and thats what makes one frustrated as one does not understand this important difference. Where did you get this idea of having no weaknesses ? Maybe, I want it to remain.   

All your life you have been caught up between moral and immoral deeds, right and wrong words, good and bad thoughts. 
Let it all be my problem. Dont make it yours. Remember, I am above good and bad. 

This needs conviction that I am responsible for all the thoughts in your head. Maybe, I planted the thoughts in the first place. 
The ‘bad’ is serving a vital role as much as the ‘good’. I work with opposites in a way that you would not understand. 

Me : Why ? What purpose do they serve ? 

Voice : The heavy load of karmas even get worked out through your thoughts - both good and bad. Observe them gently. Knowing this, you are able to surrender all to Me. The same is true with your actions. You have no idea what you have accumulated through lifetimes. 

Me : I mediate, remember God and chant His name for tranquility and detachment !

Voice : Love God for what He doesn’t give you, as much as for what He gives you. 

Me : That was a killer line ! You are full of it. Listen, I am not convinced.  

Voice : You will be when the time is right. You are in a state of judgement because of the moral standards of the world. 
Do not judge yourself. When you reach a state of non-judgement of your own being, it will reflect in non-judgement of others. 

Me : Okay....

Voice : You may imagine yourself getting closer to God by being in virtuous state with no weaknesses. But, the so-called weakness keeps you grounded and you remain helpless to My help. This keeps you closer to Me. In a state of having ‘vanquished’ your lower attributes, you will become judgemental of others, thus walking on the thin rope of pride and conquest. The ego is very tricky and without you realising it, you create a spiritual ego - which would only mean more work for Me. You will create your identity of 'Lover of God’ through distinctions of vices and virtues. The creation of that very same identity is work of the ego that will bind you further to Falsehood. And the job was very simple from the start - to lose your very Self.       

If you want what the world understands as spiritual life - you face the danger of perpetuating the ego. If you want God, then elimination of the ego is inevitable. What the world may term as undesirable, I may use this for the greatest benefit.   


Me : You realise you can put those 'positive thinkers' speakers and authors out of business ?  

Voice : Thats why I said this is beyond comprehension of the human intellect. 

Me : So, I can be a bad boy, now ?

Voice : Be yourself. You dont have to bother being ‘spiritual' to please me. 

Me : So I can getaway being angry and yell at everyone ?

Voice : Didn’t you just apologise to the person you were screaming at, even tough you knew you were right ? 

Me : Yes. Was ashamed of my behaviour. 

Voice : Wasn't that a wonderful opportunity for you to exercise humility, ask for forgiveness, practice tolerance and forbearance ?

Me : I want to be Thanos from Avengers and unleash my evil side !        

Voice : I know what resides in your heart and I know your karmas from previous lifetimes. I am deeply involved with you with each thought, word and deed. Its not your connection with Me - Its My connection with you. I am the One playing out your life each moment.  

What needs to be worked from deep within your consciousness, nobody knows except Me. Let it work out. Let it be.  

My work is above the moralities of the world. Remember, when God is your companion, the ways of working remain unfathomable.        
Your weaknesses can be removed in a moment when I want it, but that doesn’t matter to Me nor must it matter to you.   

Me : God, I feel kinda free now.  

Voice : Did you notice how we can bind our own being ? 

Me : Yes.

Voice : Your pair of jeans may fade away. Divine Love cannot.
