View The World From A Vantage Point
Look down upon this physical world from a high vantage point. You would find the light of billions of Is shimmering throughout the ld. Like a foaming sea, they move ut from one life to another, from form of living thing to another. souls, when seen in their truŠµ spective, are the same. They are all tof God's consciousness; they are all t and they all have innate bliss. But if we look at the condition of our ld, we are appalled and shocked by suffering and pain each form of life undergoing. We find strife and sension throughout the world. Many ions are embroiled in internal flicts.We see religious groups at s with each other. Communitystrife videspread. Even within families we discord and disharmony. We find man beings killing each other and also harming other forms of life. We wonder how there can be so much pain and turmoil among people who have within them the same Divinity. Just as a couple bear children to increase their mutual love and joy, so did God bring about the creation of so many souls, so many children. Yet the result is far from what was intended. We who are moving packets of bliss and all-consciousness are aware only of great pain and torment. If we could return to our true state of bliss, we would experience peace and ecstasy. If we could tap deeply within, navigating beyond physical body and mind, we would find a wellspring of eternal peace and happiness, the secret of unity underlying the universe. Saints from every religion teach the same truth. They help us find the common elements in each. They have love and respect for other great saints and the world's religions. They recognise that they are teaching the same Truth. Although outer languages, cultures, customs and the ways of dressing and greeting may differ, in essence all religions are the same: Love. The various religious and spiritual traditions have more commonalities than differences. The common core of each is the same. They believe that we have a spiritual core within us created by a higher power. They also speak of tapping into the spiritual dimension through prayer, meditation, or inversion to uncover our Source. While language and customs differ, at the heart of it allare practices that connect our true essence, the soul, with the higher Power. Saints, masters, spiritual teachers and enlightened beings, such as the 88 Buddha, Jesus Christ, Mahavira, Moses, Krishna, Rama, Guru Nanak, Kabir, Maulana Rumi, St Teresa of Ávila, Mira Bai, Hazur Baba and manyothers came to help connect the peopleof their times with the divine within. We think we are body and mind.Wednot realise that we are soul. We are true children of the Divine. The stillness experienced during meditation is the reflecting pool in which we can see who really are. When our body and mind are still, we can see our own true Self as soulMeditation is a practical method witwhich we can discover our true Self as soul and achieve spiritual consciousnesby reuniting our soul with the higher Power. It is a way to discover our true purpose in life and to reach the goal of enlightenment in this lifetime. In this way, we can uncoverwho wereally are and can truly say that we know ourselve
