The Divine Bliss
on Spirit
Every Human being is subtle,
unified entity and the supreme creation of Almighty Lord. The physical
structure of human body is supplemented and supported by senses, intellect and
two more invisible astral entities in the form of mind and soul. The human
Spirit is considered as a component of human mental knowledge, philosophy, art and psychology. It is linked with our
intellect, emotions, fervor, passion, enthusiasm, vitality, eagerness,
commitment, creativity, contentment, liveliness, courage and other favorable
aspects. The evil concepts of mankind in the form of stress, anxiety, anger, lust,
ego, hatred, corruption etc. are due to irrational tendencies of mind.
In many religious,
philosophical and historical traditions, the soul is the immaterial essence of
a every living being. The belief of Animism (Aristotle) says that even the
non-living entities of certain rivers and mountains have soul. The soul is the
real, divine source of intellectual energy or intensity in every living
organism as revealed in a work of art or performance. Every religion believes
in the seven prominent characteristics of soul; peace, power, knowledge,
security, love, happiness and bliss. These eminent qualities have been granted
through the graceful benevolence of Almighty God.
Different
meanings of Soul:
Soul is considered as a unique
‘immaterial substance’, endowed with reasons adopted to rule the body through
divine bliss. In old English, the original concept of ‘Sawol or Sawel’ is meant to be coming from or
belonging to ‘The sacred sea or lake’. Soul is special entity, endowed with
reasons, adopted to rule the body.
In Hinduism, the Sanskrit word,
most closely corresponding to soul are, ’Jiva, Atman and Purusha.’ According to
Latin (Hebrew), the soul confers two words, ‘Ruach’ which means ‘wind’ and
‘Nephesh’ meaning ‘breath’. It is related to the body and earthly power to
eliminate the evils and darkness. Their version conveys that soul is celestial,
spiritual and moral entity. As per Greek language, the word ‘Psyche or
Psychein’ means ‘Breathe’ that acts in the form of mental abilities of living
being as reasons, character, feeling, consciousness, memory, perception,
thinking etc. Soul adopts the virtuous trend of truth and morality. It remains
away from illusions and materialistic incidents. Spiritual peace and elevation
achieved through regular meditation is the virtuous attempt of seeking
salvation.
Seek Heavenly
Blessings:
The benevolence of God is the
way to achieve human excellence in totality and also to attain sublime state of
supernatural peace. The course of life can become easy if one can surrender
totally to Divine and follow the supreme guidance with faith. The soul cannot
attain purity and strength unless it leaves the materialistic desires. We have
to improve ourselves to acquire the virtuous habits of honesty, truthfulness,
humility, tolerance, submission and contentment. Strong consciousness to merge
with God cannot be attained in a few moments because there are no short cuts in
spirituality.
Meditation is the faithful, emotional and
devotional submission of soul with God. During meditation, the shut up energy
of mind is released. It gives comfort and freshness to mind and body so as to
lead purposeful happy life.
The Great Deity
and Divinity:
God is supreme and principal
power of faith. He is sublime and ultimate reality, being perfect in power,
strength, knowledge and virtue, who is worshipped as sole creator and ruler of
the universe. He has unique qualities of Omnipresence (present at every part
and participle of the creation. He would need to be everywhere in order to know
and care everything); Omniscience (he has created everything that we see, in
reality being the creator of knowledge); Omnipotence (he has the ultimate
power, even the devils are also under His order, thus worthy of our love and
devotion); Omni-benevolent (perfectly good and graceful); All loving
incorporeal (immaterial, un substantial and spiritual); Conception of Transcendence
and immanence (living outside and inside the nature of universe); The three
letters in the word ‘God’ denote virtuous properties of being Generator,
Operator and Destructor. The virtuous qualities are beyond description.
How to be sure,
God listens to our prayer:
- The person can become
successful only with the kind blessings of spiritual guide who provides the
virtuous technique of initiation. The true saint is ‘One with God’ with eminent
qualities of being mentor, philosopher and guide because he carries the eternal
knowledge and experience of prolonged meditation. He has the body on earth but
the soul always in communication with Almighty Lord. He is capable to divulge the secret message of
God Words to his disciples. These holy words act as source of immense energy
and also help to perceive the eternal divine melody. Thus our spiritual guide
creates perfect love for God in us.
- Every person should follow that Spiritual
discourse or ‘Satsang’ adds status to life, social service or ‘Sewa’ is art of
life, meditation or ‘Simran’ is part of life and spiritual guide or ‘Satguru’
is gift of life.
- Understand the difference
between God and man: God is superb and sole creator of universe and human race
the supreme creation through His grace. God gives, gives and forgives; whereas,
man gets, gets and forgets. We should not carry anger, hatred and bitterness in
our heart against anyone if we expect God to forgive us and hear to our
prayers. The challenges can make the human life intervening and overcoming.
- We must have a forgiving spirit
and pray in full faith. God has made us a master piece; we should remain
blessed, secure, disciplined and equipped.
- The soul becomes capable to
visualize the inner light and sound that actually is the radiance and vibratory
sound (sweet melody) of God within us.
- Yesterday was experience, today
is experiment and tomorrow is expectation. So use your spiritual experience in
your experiments to achieve your expectations of seeking direct visualization
of God.
Motivate Soul
with Eternal Benevolence:
- The meditation becomes bliss to
ensure health, well being, worldly and heavenly happiness.
- The third eye provides a sense
of serenity, tranquility and calmness instilled in mind.
- We should focus our attention in between and
behind the eyes by repeating the God words. We have to change our thinking from
transient to the eternal.
- We face darkness on closing our eyes but should
not worry or develop tension. Our continuous concentration on silent recitation
of God words will help us automatically to reach at eye centre.
- When we continue to remain
involved in meditation, our mind gets suppressed in oblivion but our soul gains
strength to establish direct link with supreme power.
- Thus the physical body gets
detached from the materialistic world.
- When we get concentrated at eye
focus, we may listen to the delightful music from within in the form of divine
melody, which emanates from the eternal source.
- At the end of meditation, the
body organs regain their consciousness and the soul returns to the physical
body. Thus the third eye can help to see the unseen and even listen the unheard
- The Soul is blessed with Divine
virtue and truth. It becomes capable to cherish the inner radiance and
continuous eternal sound or pleasing music (Anhad=naad or Bange-elaahi). It
adapts to the virtuous trends of truth and morality but remains away from
illusions, hypocrisy, distress, deceit, pretence and ostentations. Meditation
prevents all illness, no matter how big these may be. It helps us to live, love
and work effectively with splendor. The body attains strength to perform
selfless voluntary service and sacrifice at will. The evil thoughts of
transmigration (cycle of death and rebirth) get lost forever and sol attains
salvation.
