DISCOVER PEACE IN THE ONE

We see the sun ‘rising and setting’

but in fact it does not ‘rise or set’.

Nor DOES THE MOON WAX OR WANE!

THE EARTH THAT APPEARS STATIONARY

is in fact rotating!

 

We experience the world.

Perceive it with our sense organs

through the projections of our mind…

which we know are constantly perishing.

We are caught by the display of variety.

We then give these experiences a label.

Some ‘joy’…some ‘sorrow’.

A disintegrated mind sees things as

‘I-Like’… ‘I don’t-Like’

Bound by the variety

which is only an appearance.

We see differences in the WHOLE.

 

But with mastery over the senses

THEN, the Mind will be unified, calm.

THEN the world will be is seen as One.

THEN we will see our Self in the Lord.

THEN our actions and thoughts will be

directed in His service.

 

 When we see the One God in all.

The doubts of the wavering mind

cease to be an obstacle.

The many-ness projected by the mind

does not preoccupy us…

it does ensnare us with unreal ‘desires’.

 

We become child-like…spontaneous…pure

with no knowledge of good and bad…

not directed by likes and dislikes

THEN we are at peace with all…

THEN all ‘differences’ disappear

To merge into the ONE.

 

Lord Krishna’s parting words of advice

to His close friend Uddhava

just before He ended His Avatara are:

‘ABSORB YOUR MIND AND INTELLECT IN ME,

ABIDE IN ME AND SEE THE WORLD AS ONE.’
