There is a purpose behind all activities of the Divine
Why should this creature, man, endowed with extra sensitiveness to share sorrow and joy with others, be born in this changing world of time and space? Nothing that is born can escape death; nothing that is built can withstand disintegration. Why, then, has man been sent onto this stage of fleeting experiences? There is a purpose behind all the activities of the Divine. Man has to manifest the Divine in him and lead and guide all living beings in that adventure. He has to liberate himself by his efforts and liberate all life by his example. He must become free and secure in his own Source. This is what is called (Liberation). He is liberated from littleness Into vastness, from bondage to boundless Bliss. The ego-alloy enters man only when he is misled by the apparent diversity, to posit multiplicity in creation. The Reality which is misconstrued in the dull dusk of (primeval ignorance), is God. To see through the fog that projects many where there is only the One, is the purpose of all spiritual . If even after years of , by which ever religion it be prescribed, the (spiritual aspirant) continues to see differences, distinctions and diversities, we can conclude that he has a long way to go before he can fulfill the aim of this human existence. Awareness of the One ensures unshaken tranquillity When the One is realised, there can be no fear. For how can the One fear itself?. There can also be no desire, for when there is no second, how can the desire to possess arise? Neither can there be envy, hatred, greed, pride or any of the evil passions that torment man and allow him no peace. The awareness of. the One ensures unshaken tranquility, . The One (call it God, , or the Universal Absolute), is all Love, all Knowledge, all Wisdom, all Sweetness. , says the (He is Sweetness). How then can there be any bitterness in Him or in man's real nature, for man is manifested by Him, from Him and for Him? A goat cannot be born of a tigress. What emanates from God must be perforce Divine. Hence the appellation, (child of immortality) for man in the . Hence the in him, which has come from the , is also Immortal. Sparks emanating from the flames of fire have the same incendiary quality as the fire. The body is a Temple of God and has been organised for the sake of the God who decided to instal Himself therein. Until man realises the God within, and thus comes to understand that He is the 'mystery' that was evading him while he wandered about In the wilderness of the world, he has to attend assiduously to the up-keep of the body.
