I am not afraid of death or suffering
anymore because in all that I see a story
separate from my truth, the ultimate
truth that I live with, the eternal, ever
youthful, and ever fresh, beyond age,
truth. These stories can come and go,
they have come and gone like blink and
a miss appearance in my existence but
the eternal truth story of mine has
always been there. This separate story is
different from truth. Since we are not
able to see the complete truth and the
complete package that we are, this
worldly life is like an illusion or ‘Maya’
because we are not able to realize and
perceive it in the light of the larger truth.
It is a reality that is beautiful and if we
are able to realize it then we can fulfill
the mission of our human incarnation.
Being human is not a pain; it is an
opportunity to serve the giver, the
divine, the divinity, and the very current
of life itself, the eternal truth.
is no day, no night, no sun, no moon, no
light, no darkness, no ignorance, no
knowledge, no reasoning, no analysis,
no veda, no scripture or philosophy, no
deity, no body, no thought, no reason or
logic. My cup is filled with void and
hence it is empty. The bliss or ‘ananda’
that comes with it is inexplicable and
incomparable. It cannot be compared
to anything worldly that we see, hear,
say, read, taste, touch, think or
calculate. It is beyond all that. It is
beyond the senses and beyond the
creation. It exists in every speck of
space and yet it is beyond space. I am
his lover, his servant. I live with him
every day. When I live with him, there is
no mortality. My life of bliss is beyond
space and time. My life of bliss is beyond
this physical and mortal body. In that
life, there is no pain, no misery, no
suffering. I know now that suffering in
physical realms and physical incarnations
is only temporary. What is permanent is
bliss. And I am fortunate enough to be
immersed in it. Thank you so much.
We need to realize the beauty of this life,
this creation. The suffering vanishes if
we are immersed in bliss, if we are
beyond and yet within. Everything
becomes part of an eternal, immortal
and ever continuing beauty and bliss.
We come, fulfill our purpose, go back to
where we came from and come back
when it’s time. If we are able to see
everything including these material
realms from the seat of the void, from
the seat of bliss and truth, then
everything is truth.
