Rediscovery--Back to Basics!

Have come full circle. The forgotten have resurfaced back into my life. And this time on, it doesn't look like I'd be losing my way again...hopefully!

  • Beliefnet !!
  • Sufidar
  • Sunandaji
  • Dada Vaswani
  • Brahmakumaris
  • Swami Sukhabodhananda

JOY, O JOY!

So much to read, imbibe, and reflect upon, and of course practise!

Hope to find the time to indulge my soul.

Awakening & Dawning

Divine Thought For Today: Intense love for God adorns your life.

I'm enjoying the discovery each day. A new thought, signs and messages from dreams, are all leading me to you, my Lord. I can feel it. Not sure if I'm imagining it or am really receiving it. Maybe I'm finally tuning in? And doing it correctly? Please let me not waver and veer again.

It's exciting and I look forward to each day with joy and anticipation. My heart feels full and light at the same time. Revelations are slowly making their appearance felt. So too the thoughts and messages since I'm able to remember them and speak them aloud to the folks who are receptive...in turn this refreshes the whole process to my own self.

Boy, was I surprised. It came quietly without any realization or dawning either. It did leave me wondering a bit as to how come the idol from Sufidar, the saint whom I know nothing about, but have visited over the years, but not in a long while now, came to mind when I tried to practise the Brahmakumaris meditation of going back to my Father. The meditation that entails visualizing yourself traversing the seas and mountains as a spot of light, across the stars and moon and sun and the path is flooded with a bright orange red light, ultimately leading you to God, so that you can sit next to Him and talk to Him.

From willingly and consciously remembering the images of my chaheeti Shirdi Ke Sai Baba, to Lord Krishna's laminated pic, to Sathya Sai Baba's photo, to the Lord Shiva portrait in Ammamma's devakood, the image that ultimately flashed across the mind was that of you, dear Baba Nebhraj. Of your idol in Sufidar.

Some hours later, while intending to show Mom something else on the Sufidar website, I ended up spending the entire time reading all about Baba Nebhraj's life story. It was fascinating to say the least. Suddenly wondered if this was a sign, again without planning to, but he appeared in my consciousness within the same day. I quickly downloaded the Duaa and the Aarti I've heard so many times on visits to Sufidar, but only now actually paid attention to the lyrics and the music. I landed on the "Sayings" page of the website and lost no time in reading and saving the contents on a file on my PC to read at leisure. To print a copy and keep with me at all times to remind myself.

They -- Sunandaji, my guru, Brahmakumaris, my teachers, and Baba Nebhraj, the Divine, are all saying ultimately the same thing and that appeases and heals my soul.

I feel strangely lighthearted and some sort of nervous excitement at the same time, that I am on to something. My spiritual journey has finally taken off, started off, but beautifully and gradually.

Thank you, all of you enlightened souls and God.
