The Awakener

Me : You have taught me so much!  

Voice : You think so ?

Me : Yes, don’t you know that ?

Voice : I think life itself plays a wonderful role of a teacher. I play a different role with you.  

Me : So, teaching is old school ?

Voice : Ha Ha. There is nothing to learn. I have nothing to teach you. I have only Love to give you and I need only Love from you. 

I awaken. This is My work with you.

Me : Hmm 

Voice : When you are the recipient of this Divine Love of God, it contains everything. There is no learning - only yearning.

Love can love without reason and it will spread itself transforming humanity. Love in your heart is My work of awakening.

You feel I give you answers, you feel I teach you to live, you feel I guide you on the path, but it is Love that answers, it is Love that fulfils you, it is Love that illuminates and it is Love that sheds light on your next step. I only keep the fire of this Love burning inside your heart as it grows, grows and grows more, finally engulfing your entire Being.     

What is preaching, learning or teaching to the one who lives in the majesty of this Divine Love? It is the highest order of spiritual living. 

Me : Wow

Voice : I am The Awakener. Stay awake to My Love every moment.  

    

           

Saving Humanity

Voice : How is going ? 

Me : Pretty good. Actually feels like calm before a storm. 

Voice : So you picking up undercurrents from My gentle breeze..

Me : Well, what are you upto now ? 

Voice : The usual.

Me : Destroy and create ? 

Voice : Ha Ha. You really think I enjoy destroying ?

Me : Well, to bring a major shift in consciousness, I understand that a spiritual upheaval is necessary. But do people have to perish ?

Voice : From where I am, I experience indivisible oneness. The play of numbers would only concern you.

Me : Then what does concern you ? Aren't you the Saviour ? 

Voice : Shouldnt' a True Saviour's work be to prevent the 'dying of humanity' over 'dying of people'. I see the coming transformation so monumental and significant that it transcends mere numbers. Death and life will always be so beautifully intertwined. 

Me : Hmm 

Voice : Detach from numbers and you will bear witness to God's manifestation on earth - an era of love and unity.   

Me : What happens to me ?

Voice : What avail is life, death or anything to you ? Don't you feel My pure, divine love ? You are already saved.  

  

Wandered Away From God

Me : Sometimes people lose their faith in God and wander away. It makes me sad when that happens. How do you look at it ?  

Voice : Good question. 

Don’t you have three dogs in your family now ?

Me : Yes ! And I can have a lot more ! 

Voice : You can have 100 of them and I know you would still do a pretty good job with that!  

Me : Thank you. No surprise at all that when spelled backwards Dog is God. I can't imagine my life without God as Spirit and Dogs as my physical companions. I am a sucker for pure love.  

Voice : You are fortunate. You think I did a pretty good job with creating dogs ?

Me : Apart from the present mankind, you did well with everything in your creation. 

Voice : Ha Ha. Tell me, what if one day you had 1 dog from the 100 missing ?

 

Me : Oh. I will not rest until I find him and bring him back. 

Voice : But you still have the other 99 with you.  

Me : But I won’t give up on the one that has wandered off.  

Voice : Won’t you rather be satisfied with the all the other dogs that are still safe with you ?

Me : No ! How can I allow that one dog to be lost ? I will move heaven and earth to find him ! I will never be at peace until I have him back.  

Voice : It is the same with Me. There are many who stick to Me with faith and love. But, there are those who, in their despair and weak moments loose faith, renounce God and wander far away. In the same way as you, I am more concerned over the My own who has wandered off. I am more eager to bring him back to Me. 

That one person who goes astray receives more attention until I win him back. How can I ever give up on one of My own ? 

Me : Hmm 

Voice : So don’t worry about those who have wandered off from God or whose faith has weakened. I have only allowed some slack but he is firmly reined in with Me. Divine love is irresistible and in time, he will be drawn again to My love wherever he may be.  

Me : Wow 

Voice : I am more eager for your love than you can ever know. To move the whole world for the one who is mine is no price at all for Me.  

Me : Wow. Even if it's just for one person ?

Voice : Yes, even if he is just one soul from the whole universe. It is for this precious love, the whole creation has come into being.      

  

Die !

Me : I feel overwhelmed.

Voice : Close your eyes right now.  

Me : Feel this moment. Now let it sink-in that today is the last day of your life. You will be dead tomorrow. Be with this thought and tell me what you feel.

Me : Hmm. Give me a couple of minutes.

Voice : So ? 

Me : Wow.

Voice : You were smiling.. 

Me : I don’t fear death so I could do this easily. But, what was most important that this carried a feeling of liberation and freedom within me. All the things that mattered to me just vanished ! All the strings attached to me loosened away and I felt so light and free. My mind ceased to run around. The future had no grip over me. The past became inconsequential. All my possessions, titles, ambitions, worries, concerns just dwindled away. I truly imagined my death and so quickly the next moment transformed to a profound and powerful experience. Thank you.  

Voice : What happened with that unresolved family matter? 

Me : Not bothered by it.   

Voice : And about that client who won't pay you ?

Me : He can keep the money.  

Voice : What about the uncertainty of your future plans ?

Me : If I am not alive in the first place, how would anything matter at all ? 

Voice : That's true. You could die today.

Me : What a waste of life giving so much time to what will eventually have a value of ZERO. 

Voice : Now you know what a tethered existence you live by your own choice. 

Me : Yes. Please explain me more about this.. 

Voice : The contemplation of this powerful thought without fear was a few minutes of reality-check.     

You were no longer held captive by time. The force of ignorance lost its grip over you. 

By dying, you relinquish your own form and when you cease to exist even in thought, everything that comes from the falseness of your existence withers away.

Death is inevitable to all but you have been choosing to live like an immortal ! If nothing in your world is forever - what is the rationale of living the way you do ? 

Me : Hmm

Voice : Peace is given away to a distant future you have never seen, simple joys in life are forgotten, fear is allowed to overpower you forsaking love, resentment is nurtured forever and you have been accumulating things like you have the option to carry it forward to your next lives ! I am lucky that you can squeeze a few minutes in your day for Me !  

       

Me : Well....

Voice : You know everything is temporary. Only God is eternal. 

 

Me : But, how can I keep feeling this ? I can’t play dead all the time !

Voice : Ha ha. It's an art..the art of dying.  

When you feel overwhelmed, this reflection will help. Deeper the reflection, deeper will be the result.  

Me : It's certainly a weird thing to do. But, this works powerfully well. Thank you. 

Voice : You feel so burdened and gripped by the world, what could I have suggested to help you feel instantly free and unbounded ? 

You felt good because you diminished your own presence, to bring alive My presence. 

 

While the world will teach you to live, I will teach you to die to yourself. 

 

 

God and Suffering

Me : Why do people say that God gives suffering to His close ones ? 

Voice : That's what I keep hearing. 

Me : Seriously tell me. 

Voice : Tell you what ? That God gives suffering to His close ones ? 

Me : That's the word going around… 

Voice : Then it's probably true.

Me : Seems like you want to keep it this way.

Voice :  Seems like you want to defend God.

Me : Don't your lovers need to know the real deal ? 

Voice : It is good when it's kept this way for most. When you blame Me for everything, you keep Me closer to you. You give me a place in your life for all that happens and that’s what I like. And when you hate Me for what is happening to you, you will have an opportunity to intensify your remembrance of God.   

Me : But that doesn’t answer my question. 

Voice : Okay let me tell you something about God and suffering of His close ones. 

Me : Let me get some popcorn..

Voice : Ha Ha 

Here is what actually happens. When a lover of mine is destined to go through intense challenges and inevitable hard times, I draw him to Me much before the onset of that time. I let him know of My existence, help him feel My love, remind him of My presence and keep him nurtured in love and faith for God. This is a beautiful period of divine companionship.  

As the law of cause and effect begins to unfold in his life, My lover is faced with the inevitable hard times and seemingly insurmountable challenges. This was always going to happen by the inexorable working of the law of Karma. But, this is when he concludes that the hard times have befallen on him only after his closeness to God.

But, in reality the pain was inevitably a part of his life - I only made My appearance at the perfect time so he is not alone in his adversity and receives My help.

 

My role during this period is take upon Myself most of his suffering. If he had to undergo this without our closeness, his suffering would have very hard to endure and it would completely break him.  

And, thus emerges the belief that God and suffering surfaces together and sufferings to His close ones have befallen by My choice. 

   

Me : Wow. Everyone should know this ! 

Voice : Maybe not.

Me : Why not ??

Voice : Let My lovers believe it is Me behind everything in their lives including their hardest times. Let the belief be that God gives suffering. This way they will not blame anything or anyone else for whatever happens in their lives and this in turn, will prevent further karmic engagements as the blame remains only on God. 

Love Me or blame Me - both are as precious to Me. Both keep you close to My help and infinite love. 

 

Me : This love is madness ! 

Voice : I am your Divine Beloved who loves you more than you can ever love your own Self. 

Desires, Temptations and Fear

Me : What do I do with these lower desires and fears that surface ? 

Voice : Hmm

Me : It's like the temptations dance before me again and again. 

Voice : Hmm

Me : How do I overcome desires, temptations, fears and lure of my lower self ? Will this struggle ever cease ? 

Voice : For many it will continue to haunt them their entire lifetime and for others it will be an ongoing war repeatedly losing the battle to it's force.  

But for a few, this will be no more than an occasional mosquito in the room. 

Me : What is the secret to overcome this ?

Voice : There is no secret.

Me : Then how come those few can overcome it ? 

Voice : They don't work on overcoming anything. They simply live in continual awareness of who I really am. 

Me : That's enough ? 

Voice : If you truly really understand, fathom, realise and are convinced of who I really am…temptations, fears and desires itself will loose it’s hold over you. 

Many take Me to be their friend, guide, father, brother, mystic, saint and more. But, to take Me to be what I really am itself will shake all the bindings. The intensity of this contemplation itself has that supremacy, power and strength. 

I am Infinite Consciousness with many names - Love Incarnate, Highest of the High, Redeemer, Messiah, Saviour, Prophet, Divine Beloved, Avatar, GOD. Nothing less. 

The few who have inscribed this in their hearts, savour this Truth every day of their lives. This conviction runs in every cell and fibre of their being. This charges them spiritually inside out. This itself makes mockery of those desires and turns everything meek and weak.  

A weak conviction needs constant reminders and re-ignition of perhaps this most signification truth of their lives in their journey towards Divine Bliss. Therefore, everything seems to become a battlefield for them. 

Me : Wow

Voice : Do you really think the one who loves and lives with his Divine Beloved is troubled by fears or temptations ?

A true lover of God lives with the highest divine stimulation..what power can mere lower desires have over him ?    

Voice : Do you know ? 

Me : What ? 

Voice : I am God.

When you soak this in, so much is already done.  

It Is Time

Voice : Do you feel My presence ?

Me : Yes very deeply  

Voice : Do you hear Me ?

Me : Very clearly 

Voice : Do you find answers to all your questions ? 

Me : You have left nothing unanswered. 

Voice : Do you have conviction of who I am ? 

Me : Beyond any doubt !

Voice : How much more closer do you want to get to God than this ?

Me : Can never feel closer enough!

Voice : You are blessed to feel My presence, you have the grace to hear Me, you are privileged to receive answers to all the questions arising in your heart, you have rare gift of conviction and you are most fortunate to live in My companionship.  

Do you realise you are not a seeker of God anymore ? 

  

Me : Hmm 

Voice : Now, your quest for everything must cease. It is time for you.  

Me : Time for what ?

Voice : For just one final part. It is time now for you to live God’s words. 

Distinctions

Voice : Why did you move away from those people ?

Me : I could not grasp a word they were speaking. 

Voice : Did you try to ?

Me : Yes I did try to understand but I was clearly struggling and so I thought I pull myself away so I could breathe.

Voice : Ok

Me : Look, I really can’t understand world politics, economies, financial markets, tax laws, PE ratios, etc. You haven’t given me the aptitude for it.   

Voice : So, it’s kind of My fault?

Me : I am not saying it's your fault. It's how you have made everyone..contrastingly different and unique. 

Voice : So, why didn’t you think the same way for your friend who is an atheist ?

You don’t understand world politics. He doesn’t understand God. I don’t see this difference, then why do you ?  

Me : Hmm

Voice : He is equally true to himself as you are. Do you think if one disbelieves in God, he doesn't deserve your understanding or he is incapable of contributing to My cause ? What compels you to make distinctions? 

Me : Well.. 

Voice : Nurturing exclusions even in your mind will keep you lingering in separation. Divinity is an all-inclusive, without a trace of separateness. There is no exception. 

 

You knowingly work for me. An atheist unknowingly works for Me. And I love both for the roles that is played to perfection. 

The opposites in the world of duality work in perfect harmony with Divinity, which is beyond understanding. In the mysterious working of Existence, one works with the other for propelling the Divine Cause.

 

Me : Oh 

Voice : Discard impositions and thrusting your views, banish coercion of any form, abandon judgements, blur the differentiations and include all for none are unfortunate.    

        

In the subtlety of distinctions in your mind, seeds begin to germinate for crusades in My name and God is misinterpreted by His own, yet again.  

Me : Hmm

Voice : For the one who chooses God, choose love alone. Love silently. Love greater. Love deeper. Nothing more needs to ever be done.
