The saints celebrate life.
They have that bliss in their soul.
It shows in their countenance.
They do not lament about what a drag life is.
How hard life is.
They accept life as it is.
It is because filling their being is a bigger thing.
Bigger than life, larger than life.
It is the eternal Being.
God, Infinite Creator, whatever name you call him/It.
You could attain the same.
It is not reserved for a few chosen elect one.
Everyone is privy to it.
Because it is your essence, it is your very soul.
It is you, you only have to go beyond your physical being,
to attain it.
It is within you.
It is bigger than your physical self.
Your physical self could not contain it.
My Spirit team, what is it then?
This eternal being that resides in me.
Which I am a part of.
This divinity is the Infinite Creator.
Bypass your physical self.
Bypass your outer senses.
Go within, withdraw within.
With you, in that deeper silence,
You will experience Him.
He is subtle.
His energy is so subtle.
To really experience Him.
You have to go into a semi-sleep state.
There, you would experience Him in his entirety.
That is what the saints, sages experience.
It often leaves them in a samadhi, ecstatic state.
The Divine have taken them over.
At its initial stages.
You would experience peace.
An inner knowing where you know,
You are not alone.
In that inner space, that inner void.
Is a Presence.
It is more real to you than anything else.
A presence you are able to sense, and to look at.
Little wonder contemplation has been described,
As an inner gaze of love on God.
You do not know how to describe it.
You just know you are able to look inside,
and see God.
It is this ability which enables you,
to live and operate always in this presence.
To live and operate with your inner eyes,
always in this Divine presence.
How do you attain it?
Meditation, inner silence.
Those two ingredients.
And effort, dedication.
It is hard only at the initial stages,
when you have to apply yourself to it.
Once you go past that stage.
And that inner something captivates you.
Then it becomes easier.
All you have to do then is let go.
And let it carry you on its tide.
Since it is you.
Since it is within you.
Since it is always there in you.
Since it exists even before you exist on this planet earth.
It is your deeper self.
It is your real self.
It is your eternal self.
It will never die.
It is indestructible.
Can energy die, be destroyed? No.
And you are that.
You are energy.
You are consciousness.
Hence as saints, sages reach that stage
Of inner realization, of self-realization.
They perceive the truth of their real self.
And saw only that SELF is real. Their eternal Self.
Everything else is an illusion.
The physical body, the table, chair you sit on.
They feel solid to you.
But they are not. They are particles of atoms.
Atoms itself is 99.9 % empty space.
So what does that make you?
What does that make your physical self?
An illusion.
But oh, this illusion is only too real.
You talk to me as though it is something so easy to grasp.
It is not.
I am buffeted by daily living.
By fears as I watch the changing tide.
Of this earth buffeted by natural upheavals.
Of mankind consumes with greed of power.
Of warring nations.
Of people warring against each other.
Of sicknesses, pain, suffering.
And you tell me all this is an illusion?
It is only too real for me.
That is why you are looking at saints, sages.
What do they possess?
Why are they thus?
It is real. It is not an illusion.
The joy, bliss that fill them,
emanating from them.
In turn, filling us with that bliss.
They are testament to the beauty within us.
To the bliss and eternal happiness within us.
That is why we look at them, look to them,
and emulate them.
