AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

How was the universe 🌏 created?

The universe is created by the extension of the Divine Consciousness in terms of Time and Space. It is somewhat like a poet or writer expressing himself through pen and paper. But the creation is going on as a continuous process so we can’t say ‘was’ created but ‘is being’ created. 

So God as the Author or Poet decided to write His story so He brought out of Himself all the Knowledge and Power to write. This Knowledge and power of God (Omniscience and Omnipotence) is the Divine Mother. Then together they started writing this grand story with Space as the page and Time as the pen and ink. The numerous forms are the letters. The object of this story is to multiply delight. If we read this story with the mind we are unable to understand its meaning because the mind does not know the language of God. But if we read it with the soul then all is legible and beautifully clear. Right now the Chapter that is being written is the most important one. It is titled, ‘From Man to Superman.’

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Sri Rama leaving the kingdom and going to the forest is only Satya Nishtha, not Renunciation or Sacrifice, but Bharatha offering the kingdom to Rama Paduka and remaining in Chitrakut and governing Rama’s kingdom is Renunciation. Am I right? 🫴🏼πŸͺ·πŸ˜ŠπŸ™πŸ»πŸŒ»

It is a question of semantics, playing with words. Satya nistha is the motive but the act is renunciation. Renunciation is an action that may be done for a number of reasons such as inability to face the challenges of life …
