IT IS THE SOUL EXPERIENCE THAT MATTERS

All days are beautiful! It is not the days that matter but what goes on deep within you as each day passes. It is the soul experience that matters, and the soul should contemplate the glory of GOD at all times, regardless of the weather! Man tends to live out his life like a cork floating in the sea, tossed about by the waves without the sense of direction. That is not the purpose of life. "You do not expect to see a car travelling along the road without a driver at the wheel, or to see him asleep at the wheel." But that is exactly what is happening in many of our lives.... No direction, no awakening, just the experiencing of events and the needless problems of everyday life. Actually you are 'the driver' and you alone can pilot your way through life, choosing your own path. There are many paths but there is only one that will lead you back to GOD;.... "THE SPIRITUAL PATH". However, you can find GOD along before you complete the journey, for GOD is always with you. You do not see Him because your eyes are clouded by illusion and you are looking elsewhere, drawn away by the materialism that you can see all around you. You become attached to the material world and everything in it and your whole life revolves around it... The desires, the pleasures, the fascinations, the material rewards, anything which feeds or swells the ego, that are the things that your vision becomes clouded and the truth hidden from view or distorted. The thought of searching for the truth does not even occur to you and you remain at the lower levels of consciousness. Then one day,something happens,perhaps a traumatic experience, and you begin to stir from the sleeping state. These are the first signs of an inner awakening; You begin to wonder what life is all about and why the path which you have been following has brought you so little satisfaction, and certainly no peace of mind or a lasting happiness. You start to look around and, eventually, you look within for that is where the solution lies to all your problems.... Heaven lies within, not in some distant part of the universe. Ask your self how all this applies to you. Where are you now, and where are you going? Are you happy, and have you experience.... Absolute peace of mind? If not, you now have the opportunity to change your ways and take control of your driverless car. No longer will you be the victim of events, no will the world determine your future. What a bleak future that would be! Your future is assured once you find your own true self, the real you, that lives deep in your heart. Be your real self from the morning till night and.... Walk hand in hand with GOD in all that you do, knowing that nothing can harm you, ultimate bliss is inevitable. It is the only path, the divine path, and it is there in front of you now. Start the new journey hand in hand with GOD at this very moment and never turn back. The path ahead is glorious and will being peace of mind, something which has eluded you for so long. And the GOD will always be there to guide and protect you. From Empty Hands, A. RAHMAN BIN MAHADI. Labis, Johore. 016-6020321/017-7161330. 20 MARCH 2014. Next Topic: 1.
