I have a very healthy respect for God, but when it comes to me I fall flat. As I say it's important to learn.

You are probably generous and kind. It is people like that who struggle to love themselves.

There is a saying by William Blake; "If a fool would only persist in his folly, he would become wise"...and there will be many out there who love to point out folly, because it gives them an ego-boner.

I have no problem with the word "worship" because for me, that arises out of an expression of love for the Divine and not as a supplication to it.

For many, surrendering the life or will to a "Higher Force" is seen as willingly placing yourself at the mercy of a sublime "concept" and shirking your personal and individual rights and responsibilities as a member of the human race.

.....until you realise that a full heart-surrender to God, means that this is what is meant to happen and others who cannot do this will not be able to understand why you would ever want to (love) and try to use their own ego to appeal to yours...and if you still have one, it will listen.

If you do not, you have already become lost to this world and now exist in another, where you can worship God as being anything you choose and it will still be God...As long as that understanding and awareness remains..and the way one does so, is personal, sacred and as I am learning, should be totally kept to oneself.

Excellent answer, my friend!
And what a prison it is to be devoted and to serve and to love...to be focused on the Creator of All That Is. (!)

As Ramakrishna said...I want to be taste the sugar, not be the sugar.

Each of us is suited with a particular individual temperament and tastes;
one wants to be God, no separation...another is into the longing to have union...
another sits and dreams of his Beloved, meditating on the heart in
love with his Protector and Divine Father, Mother, God.


It is a prison to even care what another does...focus on whatever you want my friend...the I AM,
Krishna, Jesus, who cares...God doesn't.



Hi, Eelco.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

I think that this article, although very old, ( theosociety.org/pasadena/forum/f20n11p502_the-guardian-angel.htm ) very simple explains very important things when it comes to ''find GOD,...'' For some strange reason we maded spiritual development in the modern world and contact with the divine extremely complicated and difficult, although it's very simple and accessible to everyone, and everyone can get it touch with our angels, bodhisattvas,.. if we have the courage or will to listen, trust,..
