Raising a toast...


To provoke or invoke (depends on how one sees it, all contextual and perceptual) a query, is to invoke and incite an insight, an answer, which we know not we know, till we sight them as an insight (inside, and thus, named!), when entering into the explanation that a query beseeches.... And as comes up the sighted and is cited, realized is, again and again, anything and everything comes up in infinite ways, and could it be otherwise, when at source, every thing and being is infinite, the Source of all, one and infinite?

Being a host to this post, is yes...attributed to a query raised, as it is that that contributes to this post, that coasted along and out, as a comment (a part shared here, though all contextual, yet, the part, standalone, too). In response to the post “Deconstructing Edifice...” a being, not getting the response from within, not understanding, graciously put forth the query as to what it alludes so, as only thus deluded, would she be able to follow it. I am thankful to her for the same, and for all, that has flowed and follows in its wake.... The explanation unfurled...that, if  the rituals, tenets that she follows, present her with the peace...trust...the sense of knowingness of being connected to God (the whole purpose of following those principles being that), presenting her with those sparks, the moments of absolute clarity...of the reality—however transient are those moments, the experience and the feelings are persistent, inciting more and more of such moments—that she is one with God, those principles are working for her, and thus, are true for her, but if they are not, they are not true for her.

And then, is unwrapped (unbeknownst), with sublime fluidity, that which comes about as the signpost, the crux of this post, raising a toast to all that is, God...our very essence...love...and thus, the reiteration eternal that unconditional love is God, that sublime feeling of requiring none and nothing else, external to one, and that, created are each and everyone, with love, by God, as God-incarnate, to realize God. Realizing unconditional love, immersing in a state of being, of absolute knowingness, is experiencing God, and thus, one’s God-self.

Here is that toast (that part of the reply), though, it came out as queries (yes, again!), to the one who put forth the initiating query:

“A simple and fundamental question: Can anyone decide for us, how we would love a person (irrespective of the domain of the relationship), and what would be the experience? When you put in a ‘should’—that, love should be experienced and expressed in only such and such ways—and try to follow it, only pain is experienced, as innately, we can feel the truth of love...and thus, what feels true, and what doesn't. Likewise, for experiencing the connectedness with God.... When a rule is set, the stage is set for allowing all, but that.... Just ponder, what is that activity that presents you with unparalleled satisfaction, a feeling of immersion in the activity, seeking nothing and none? You surely have such an activity. So, please embrace it more and more, and then, you would be led to yourself...your oneness with God, and then, you will realize what stands true for you, and what doesn't. For one, you could begin to have your own journal...that is, if you already aren't into journaling....”

And, on this note, I leave you all to ponder, on the same, as when the same is answered, nothing remains the same—satisfyingly overhauled, all is. After all, it is about deconstructing those edifices, that defy and deny life, at the core...the issue core, that, unanswered, has been corroding life and times till there is nothing more to corrode and erode and erase, save that, which has been behind the corrosion. The unconditional is realized by coming out of the conditional inputs....

Thus, is raised a toast, to love...God...that erases the erosive, dissolves the corrosive, healing all with Its unconditional love—all-pervasive, all-accepting—none deemed abusive, all hailed as one of Its own, on a journey of realization, to and through which It guides, all the way. That is Its eternal, unwavering word...that is the purpose of life in physical form, which, It facilitates through the process of life...all the way!

So here is to our essence of being, love, God, for which, all that there is, is...!

Sushmita,
