The Tsunami and Yoga

 

In a little moment, Mother Nature extends her force of destruction
that is beyond comprehension. Creation and destruction to Mother
Nature are like a breath, with change happening. For us as humans to
know that life is like a lamp that can be snuffed out in seconds and
to feel so many lives just taken back by Mother Nature is to ask the
deeper question: Where is God in all this?

Imagine taking a deep breath and going beyond the forces of creation
and destruction and entering into the realms of the eternal where
there is blissful void and pure light of the absolute. It is here
that we see all Life on this planet as One.

Imagine  the  fear just before death strikes as in the picture below-

It is through these hard reminders sent by the dynamic ever-changing
energies that we are forced to utilize our intellects to ask more of
wisdom.

The wisdom of how we could be the part of Oneness as representing all
the living as we extend our giving to the enormous pains and
sufferings in a large part of the world.

The wisdom to know how easily life can be snuffed out and how we take
each joyful day for granted in the luxury of our environment we are
in.

The wisdom to search for the more permanent realm within us that can
transcend the constant certainty of death after birth; a greater
reality that is sustained by the divine union - protecting and
guiding us.

For those through the process of sudden death, intellect does not
hold the answer. For those in the throes of pain having lost their
loved ones, only wisdom can be the source of comfort. For the rest of
us, it is on the intellectual level that we are reminded of the
wisdom.

This wisdom is in extending ourselves to those effected by the
disaster to bring into motion the energies of Oneness, with each of
us, the representation of all the living.

A voluntary relief doctor in Sri Lanka was commenting
yesterday, "First there were these destructive waves coming to our
shores, and now we can see waves of human kindness and love come to
reach us!"

The Divine, God, as we call the Absolute is perfect and the nature of
this perfection is Wisdom in our Oneness.

As we go into our "AUM", let's dive into our Onesness and extend the
caring, concern and love to all in pain and sorrow. Our powerful
minds will find ways to hold hands in the sustaining union.

 

Commentaries on this by Yogani, a divine friend of ours-

A: Thank you for your heartfelt views on the disaster that happened
in Asia, your homeland, and cradle of the precious knowledge of yoga
we all are benefiting from here.

There is so much to be done to aid so many. Now is the time to act.
Please, everyone, extend a helping hand to your brothers, sisters,
parents and children in Asia. 

We are on the eggshell surface of this small ball whirling through
space at thousands of miles per hour. We tend to forget how fragile
our existence is until an event like this happens. Our physical life

can end in any instant, and it will end for sure sooner or later. We
have not a moment to waste in merging with our inner truth that will
not wash away with the waves on this temporal plane.

This event is a call to people everywhere to realize they are of one
being, one truth. Let us redouble our efforts to open our doors to
the eternal bliss that resides within us and permeates every atom of
creation. We are all that ... here to open to that, and to help those
in need who are no other than that, our own self.

In the helping, we become whole again. 

The guru is in you
