The Divine in One’s Life
When we go out in nature, we see the divine all around us – the peace, the calm, the energy which one’s feels quietens our minds, that is nothing but the divine. The hills, the mountains, jungles/forests, river banks, seas, oceans – where there is nothing but calm, silence and complete peace. When we are in such areas our attention automatically starts going within as the thoughts in our minds stop – this is completely natural as there are not thoughts in nature. Nature gives us a pure environment which we just have to absorb quietly.
That is one way to come in the presence of the divine – the other is meditation. Meditation under the guidance of a living realised Master is the fastest way to self-realisation and the commencement of one’s inner journey! The habit of being inwardly in the calm presence of one’s soul – the ‘God’ within, thus keeping that consciousness steadfast day and night. Being in constant companionship of the soul helps one remain healthy, protected from being enslaved by disease, suffering and fear. Don’t you feel that is worth the effort?
Meditate every morning and welcome the day by thanking the God within for this beautiful day and whatever it brings; meditate in the evening too to thank God for the day gone by and feel the divine before going to sleep at night – once you start doing this you will start feeling happiness, joy, bliss beyond expectation!
Effort is necessary, but that effort will make one a king enthroned in the kingdom of peace and joy. Time spent in the pursuit of extraneous material things is a waste of man's precious opportunities to know the God within. Once you find the peace within you will learn to live with it and even the most trying of circumstances will not make you lose your equilibrium. Such is the power of meditation and becoming one with the divine lying within each one of us. Make the Divine a daily part of your life and stay blissed and blessed.
