What is Belonging to God?

Belonging to God and just remembering God are not same. People in worldly Bhakti also remember God, but they are not able to use this relationship for spiritual benefit of themselves or for World peace. We belong to Supreme Almighty Baba and use His powers. Learning to belong to Baba is essential in this practice. Let us see what belonging means.

Where do you belong to? When you say you are from place ‘X’. X has a special place in your heart. You call it your city. You feel my-ness and sense of security being in X. Wherever you go and stay in the world, you will belong to X alone. Right?

When you say you belong to your family, what does it mean? You feel comfortable with your family and you feel that it belongs to you and you have right over your family. It is the closeness of relationship. Right?

In office, when we say so and so person belongs to the manager/boss. It means that person reports and is confident of manager/boss. That person will not be afraid/intimidated by anyone in lesser authority then manager/boss. Right?

Now what does belonging to Baba mean? Do we realise that who ever we may interact with/who ever we may stay with/who ever we may spend time with but we belong to God alone. When we belong to some one, our priorities change putting that person in priority. We shape our life and priorities according to the requirements of the person whom we belong to naturally. This is belonging. When we learn to belong to Baba, we learn to have right over our Father We learn to really be with Baba. Then we can say we are children of Supreme Baba. Until then we remain in Bhakti and do not understand the knowledge. This sense of "My Baba" and I belong to no one but Baba is essential in spiritual practice. Now check if you are remembering Baba, what was the belonging ness you felt in this process? If you are being with Baba, what did Baba mean for you? Did He mean just another good Soul or did He mean world for you? To what extent were you able to love Baba? Was it just love a fellow being or love that sweeps us off ground?

Relationship with God - Some thoughts

It becomes difficult to be with Divine Father with out any specific purpose. Relationship is best maintained when there is a purpose. Short term and long term purposes help in this process. It is because one is not feeling the presence or necessity of Baba in actions and life to the extent one actually needs. Baba is Supreme Power. When we are with such a great power and He says all those powers belong to us. Just having this faith in mind makes a lot of difference in confidence and our actions. We experience Peace, Love and Bliss just by being in remembrance and seeing Baba (during meditation). So why not keep seeing Him all the time during every action and second. Why not maintain this contact which empowers us? What is more important in our life that we should get diverted by waste thoughts? Why not share every thought and decision with Baba? (irrespective of getting a reply, faith is in knowing and remembering that Baba is listening to me and is empowering me to do right action).

Born Lucky

I cant fail till I give up trying
I have not gained a bit, fearing
Lets face what ever comes with a graceful smile
Courage lies in faith and respect for self.

Let us see the Good in all that happens
Let us see the lesson for all that happened
Let us see the care of all beloved
Let us see the strength that develops

For there is only one in a million in this world who have
Opportunity I receive
Security I sleep in
Care I grow in
Support I stand on
Am I not born lucky?

Love! Let it flow...

River is so live so long as it flows
Love is so live so long as it’s free
Building a dam to capture the river.
Holding the love to capture it in greed
Sure will it over flow or dry up soon
Breaking the heart in flood of feelings unknown

Love is for healing on the move
Let it flow and free all hearts
Those dry & cry shall bloom & fly.
Only when it’s free shall it heal the soul.
Never seek love but let it flow.
Love of self is the greatest gift to last.

Tolerance

Ability to speak with a Sweet Smiling Face even with enemy.

Having no confusion even in thoughts (Absolute clarity).

However big a Mountain or Storms may come in the way
it seems to be an enjoyable small play ball for sweet one
who doesn’t get carried away by the flow of negative thoughts
(of weakness in self or others) either from within (mind) or
without (as told) but remains in Self Respect.

Tolerant one has the overflowing Graceof depth and
complete Calmnessin personality in contrast to
ever complaining and questioning person remains
with feelings of emptiness and dissatisfaction.

Tolerant person remains Light and Enjoys every
challenge and moment of LIFE.

Only when one loses tolerance, one complains of
receiving nothing from being tolerant due to
helpless and hopeless Attitudesof weakness.

Tolerance exists where there is Strength.
Hence to be tolerant apart from firm resolution,
one needs to Empower the Self.
Maturity is the embodiment of tolerance.

Learn to enjoy the Grace of Tolerance.

I am a Soul living on….

I am a Soul living on….
Many lives, many families
All have gone with body.
I still remain to live through the result.
Isn’t it I who reap for that do I sow?

God is Soul Supreme.
Beyond the matter as am I.
No place outside can you find the self or GOD
Only a Soul can find a Soul beyond the bound material.
Isn’t it simple that awareness leads realization?
