Love for God

For those who move boldly and in the right direction, the Spiritual Path is the Path of increasing bliss, joy, and happiness. But why do so few people walk this Path? And why are such a great number of people quite content with performing pseudo-religious acts like coloring Easter eggs, drinking heavily on holidays and ritual killing of animals and plants? Is it only lack of intelligence that makes them do these substitutive actions, which are often nothing but crime in the face of God? Or maybe the reason is that they lack love for God?

Love for God does not imply performing rites “just in case”: what if He really exists and will punish us. Love for God is being lovingly attracted to Him: to cognizing and to Merging with Him. It is like sexual passion: those who are in love with Him miss Him and get saturated with bliss at times of rendezvous — successfully performed meditations.

In order to love God like this one has to already know what it is like to fall in love. For those who cannot love God is unreachable. Jesus was telling about this: learn to love each other first — then you will be able to direct your already developed love towards God-the-Father.

But one does not have to spend one’s entire incarnation learning hard and long the art of earthly love. One may speed up one’s studying significantly by using special methods of developing the organ of love — the anahata chakra. It is also important to understand who God really is: fairy-tale characters that “pastors” of various degenerated religious schools propose to worship cannot inspire serious people for love, can they?!

God-the-Father can be cognized by man only if he lives a monastic life. But monasticism means not just wearing a uniform of some color — black, white or orange… As well as not proudly assuming a new — most often foreign — name. All of this is just childish games of grown up people playing “religion”. True monasticism also must not necessarily call for living in a monastery. As well as giving up caring about one’s family or social service. Or a strict celibate or mortification of the flesh by rejecting elementary hygienic routines, with wearing chains and enduring diseases. (For more details on this see [8]).

True monasticism is a state of being connected with one’s indriyas to God, but not objects of material plane. This is a result of a soul’s being in love with God, which has been developed through meditative trainings.

A monk — in the true meaning of this word, which God assigns to it [8,10] — is a person who lives in a permanent alertness, in the state of “total war” with his vices and shortcomings. This spiritual warrior also fights for the well being of his partners on the Spiritual Path.

Important attributes of a spiritual warrior are possessing a cell: a room or a house, where he can sleep and spend most of his time alone with God, and also the possibility to seclude close to nature for meditative work.

It is also very important to have the possibility to wash one’s body with soap every day (and not once in two weeks, like in Orthodox monasteries). Maintaining an external cleanliness of the body promotes good health, freshness of feelings, and subtlety of emotions.

It is also good to have a quartz lamp, especially if one lives in the northern latitudes — so that one could sunbathe all year round. Sunrays — not only “living”, but also artificial — confer good health on us; they are very favorable for the well-being of our bodies and souls.

In addition to this in the life of a monk-warrior there should be spiritual books, friends on the Spiritual Path, and — what is the most important — God as the constantly present Teacher and Advisor, tender and caring, but inexorable to our deviations from the Path to Him Universal Father and Mother.

Criterion of the spiritual warrior’s success would be the disappearance of his egocentrism (which is manifested in one’s susceptibility to the offence an in the desire to obtain something “for oneself”) and gradual increase of God-centrism.

The latter does not imply mere intellectual acknowledgement that there is God, but a real feeling that He is everywhere, in everything, that He is Everything. Feeling of “I” disappears: one’s lower self — due to “concretion” with God with one’s indriyas — gradually dissolves in Him. This fundamentally changes ecological status of a person, does it not?

God-the-Father allows the spiritual warriors, who are ardently in love with Him and who do not see the meaning of their lives other than Merging with Him in Love and helping others with it, to enter into His Abode, into Himself. Having placed oneself there as the spiritual heart, one can for the first time really embrace with the arms of consciousness one’s main Beloved, Who lives there, on the other side of the Mirror.

The subsequent consolidation of the Mergence with Him allows one to start acting from the other side of the Mirror, perceiving oneself as a part of the Creator — in order to help embodied souls to find their true Higher Self there — in the Abode of God-the-Father. This is the complete spiritual self-realization, the ultimate Liberation, the highest Nirvana, the completion of one’s personal evolution as a human being, the total cognizing of God and of oneself and Merging with Him into One.
