It Is Only Him


Sri Swami Vishwananda
Long before you come here [to Earth], it’s already said where you have to be, who will be your guide and when it will be that God makes everything possible for you to achieve Him. Actually, you can say it is you, but it is not you at all. It is only Him, because in the core of everything, your Atma, is only Him.

Sri Swami Vishwananda by
Swamini VishwaLakshmiAnandama

 (Initiated into the Swami Order by Sri Swami Vishwananda)
In rare interludes, Sri Swami Vishwananda seems human to me, and for a moment the mind makes me believe it. However human he may appear for a second, he is eternally Divine. In those rare seemingly human moments he has said to me: “I'm a good actor, and also, life is a game.” Is this his Divinity talking or is this Swami pretending to be human? Sometimes one and then the other is possible. 

Mahavatar and I become One when writing together. It is a mystical time that I cannot explain in words. There is no time in these states of consciousness, and although we become One, I still retain my individuality. I asked Him:  “Beloved Mahavatar, is this how it is when one attains God, The Divine? Is this bliss and Oneness how it is when The Divine is attained? Mahavatar responds: “I am blessing you with a gift of nature and Divinity when we write these writings and poems. You move far beyond the conscious mind when we write and you are blessed with having a glimpse of attaining God and eternity.”


What I feel while writing the poems is bliss, pure Love, that we are everything and nothing, and that now is all there is…Mahavatar and I together are One, and in that is All That Is!  . . . for eternity. And then the poem is finished and the cosmic game has been played and I am in the world awareness once again. And still there really are no words to fully explain these experiences.


We have received a plethora of wonderfully nice comments on the poems and our writings. We thank the people and detach and let go and ego or pride do not arise as it would be useless. It’s all Him!


Yesterday I received something about my writing that today is still lingering, for it feels like. . . “Yes, this is how we write the poems and that time with Mahavatar Babaji and the writing is joyfully magnificent!” 

Comment:
 

“Oh, what a glorious way you play with words.Thank you, Swamini”
 

And when I think of these words with joy, I know that life really is a game . . . a glorious illusion.

An Emerald Ring Circled In Gold


Satguru will never show this feeling,
but you will feel it. He knows it,
but he wants you to know it.
Sri Swami Vishwananda

AN  EMERALD  RING  CIRCLED  IN  GOLD

Spirit is everywhere because everything and everyone is spirit.
Why do some live lifetime after lifetime in the morass of misery
With an obstruction barring reaching the heart, the soul of the Self?


Is is ever the same.
These people are like a mountain without life, standing tall
But barren from a forest fire of Mother Nature’s cleansing and clearing.
Then the mountain receives the blessed rain and sun for some time, and
The once barren mountain blossoms again with a plethora of
Many-colored wild flowers and abundant, verdant, green trees
Flora and fauna, and. . .
The birds sing and the wild animals roam the mountain again. . .
Mother Nature in action.

On a high mountain, one feels closer to God!
The psychic energy of the activities and the busy minds
Of man are left far below and the air feels rarefied and pure.

So it is with the misery mankind makes for himself.
He becomes like the burned and barren forest
When he stays in the mind rather than the heart.
The real Self is in the heart of man
Like a bright emerald ring circled in treasured gold.

At times a SatGuru will manifest such a ring
For a disciple and that day is precious and held
As a luminescent, beautiful, sacred moment
In the heart and soul forever.
A sacred moment from the Great and the humble alike,
May be shared out of love and for inspiration for others.
Remember the Gopies experiences with Krishna
And the Resurrection of The Christ,
And Rama’s building of the bridge  . . .
“The Ramayana.”
What if these Great Ones had not shared their
 Sacred stories?

Pray to the Lord that you Realize your SatGuru
For it is possible to attach yourself to his Form
Instead of Loving Him for His Divinity with
Which he came to share and, thereby, to set you free.
This you accomplish by detaching from your mind,
People, places and things and
And loving God with all your heart!
Then you can become like an emerald ring
Circled in precious gold,
Blessed and manifested by your SatGuru’s Divinity . . .  
Realized!
 


Mahavatar Babaji
&
Swamini VishwaLakshmiAnandama,
Who
From herself can do nothing.
It’s All Him!
