Have you ever thought if there is a personal God?
I think most of us agree that there is a cosmic power that
moves everything in universe or universes. All the matter and energy as
deciphered by science interact in a way which is most of the times
incomprehensible to us. But we know they do ,actually matter and energy are
same .
But the question is ,is there a personal god who cares for
little me? For my health, wealth and happiness? That is a question we all ask.
Have you ever had a deep healing sleep? It is a most
precious thing in the world. It comes naturally. If you are having sleep
problem you may take sleeping pills but it does not guarantee a deep healing
sleep .It causes drowsiness and hangovers. If it happens with or without sleeping
pills it seems to happen by chance.
I had such a sleep yesterday. For a few days I was burdened
with worries and my inaction. Try as I may I could not sleep well. Not even
with the help of sleeping pills.
I dwelled on the thought of suicide a few times. I thought
of my useless life etc. Each day I got up irritated from lack of sleep and went to bed with a
heavy heart. Try as I may I could not rectify it.
Suddenly yesterday I slept well and a healing, peaceful and
joyful feeling came inside my being. I dreamt strange dreams. In my dream I saw
my wife and relatives naked although I was dressed. They all were playing and sleeping
over sand dunes. After I got up with a freshness that I have not long enjoyed.
And this thought came
to my mind. Whether god is personal? This sleep and health and joy I was craving
for suddenly came to me without knowing. I could not get it with all my trying
and suddenly it came. And the central
thing that came to my mind is that we must not crave for anything. If it has to
come it will come naturally. We should even leave the thought that we must do
something in life. That is central. Then automatically comes a relief and we
are free to from our pain. In fact we cannot even do that. If that thought
comes to our mind that is not in our control. All that happened to me, this
sleep etc. came automatically. It is the same cosmic power that drives the
universe made me sleep well. And gave me power to be happy and think well
again. And clear thinking opens up road to wealth. So that same cosmic power is
my personal god as well. That cosmic power cares for my well being.
You may say we must TRY. But as I went on thinking I found
that we cannot try on our own will. In fact the very thing WILL comes from that
very cosmic power and when we have that we surge ahead with an indomitable
force. When that power is not behind us we cannot do a thing. You may say why
do not pray? Well when you are in the down in deep dumps there is not even the
will to pray. So praying, trying and everything else is a boon to us from that
cosmic power which is personal god in a way.
We are composed of matter and energy and as I told you
matter and energy are interchangeable. But we have minds. So in some way matter
and energy in some way must have minds too , the essence is in them. If the
cosmic power is made up of matter or energy that cosmic power must have a mind
of its own . You may argue that if matter and energy combine in a particular
manner we have a mind. My argument is the essence of mind must be inside every
particle or non particle in universe other wise mind would not have
come from . That intrinsic thing, which we call mind, is inside everything in
this universe or universes . We are made up of our body, that is a chemical
composition of a few things. That chemical composition and energy impulses
inside it creates mind. So if that intrinsic thing were not inside these
chemical things and the energy generated by them, we would not have minds.
Therefore the cosmic power has also a mind. And that cosmic power with a mind
drives me. Therefore I have a personal
God.
And that personal God made me write this.
I don't make a difference between Personal God or just God. If we believe in God , all of us are children of His and He is One and personal to everybody.
ReplyDeleteI believe some power is of course driving us in all our deeds either it is dream or actions. And more we can develop our Swattic Gunas , more we will be peaceful, the feeling you had after your nice sleep that day....
