Little did I know that I would be getting to know,
in the way I have been led to know the known again: The moments of “zero expectation” are the moments that bless us with
the fulfillments in ways unimagined, and even bless us with the fulfillment of
desires that we are even unaware of having and harboring.
Yes, so it has happened again, with and as the Grace
of God!
“What? And “How?” might be the two very natural
questions, evoked by these declarations and affirmations! I shan’t keep anyone
waiting! Actually, what happened is, I got led to the following words (presented
in italics for discernment and for clarity)…the first sentence of the first
paragraph, the realization (anew) and insight, being the precursor of the
entire reception, expression and presentation, leading to this piece of sharing,
the tribute unfurling on its own thus…
“When we expect
not anything from anyone, we release all from our expectations, and primarily
and actually we release ourselves from all demands and expectations. For this
to happen though, blessing with the permanent state and level of Bliss-consciousness,
the unwavering trust in the Divine, and hence in Self—accepting Self
completely, Loving Self wholly—has to be in place. This in place, nothing is
deemed out of place, relaxes as one then in the Infinite Sea of Isness, basking
in the Ocean of Oneness with the Divine, Love and Light Eternal, asking not,
anymore, anything, from anyone—not even from Self. Then, and always
subsequently, ‘The mind is without fear.’ Then, Rabindranath Tagore’s prayer,
for ‘Where the mind is without fear,’ meets with the yearned for answer: ‘Amen!’
Yes, Amen!”
Having received this, as the words flowed, and once
they had thus flowed, I realized that I have been led to a tribute to the seer,
philosopher, God-realized being…Rabindranath Tagore…on his birth
anniversary—and unasked! And having realized, that so it has flowed, flowed,
the following words, as reinforcements, affirmation and further acknowledgment…
“When we expect
not, desires are realized—and in ways unprecedented and unimagined. So is the
call too, to free ourselves from history, free from precedence (yes, genetic
too), as expectation is limited by and to history, precedence, limited
perspective-bred thought and belief.”
And subsequent to these words, forms the title of
this tribute, as the realization makes itself known: Freedom from expectation is freedom from fear, and when the mind is
free from expectation, mind is free from fear.
Truth calls out to all: Be not a prisoner of history and precedence. Be free from expectation. Freedom
from expectation is freedom from doubt, and hence, is freedom from fear. Trust
in Truth, sets free from expectation. Truth is free. Truth is Infinite. Let go,
and let It glow, flow and guide!
Eternal Word of Truth is: “Then you will know the
truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32, http://biblehub.com/john/8-32.htm)
Indeed! And so have flowed these words, when little
did I know that I would be led to and blessed with them…little did I know that
this tribute would form and flow, for this immortal essence in form,
Truth-realized, Rabindranath Tagore! And as it has flowed and formed, on his “birth
anniversary,” so has been affirmed, yet again: Timing is ever perfect, as Divine Order forms and guides life eternally,
the Divine being Love Unconditional, Light Eternal!
