Om

I had a revelation and then two or three visions. The revelation was more than one, it was everything good, and then it was many, many revelations. I can't put it into words, it was just inexpressibly joy, and a desire to share it. The purpose and meaning of life was understood completely, nothing in life can be difficult, all of it is only a process of self-realization. It is easy to realize oneself, for anyone-- for me, personally, this has to do with religion, but the joy and love of the revelations I saw are for anyone of any religion.

Then I knew I was going into the source. I knew that everything was taking me there, at almost light speed. The source is in our minds as long as we drop dualities of time/eternity, self/other, matter/consciousness. As soon as we do, we can make such progress. We can become the best humanity can be. The best sage, the best mystic, the best artist, the best anything. The source is in our minds, which we can give birth to. Our true selves lie in this source, and when we see it, everything comes form that moment.

The first vision I had was one of reality. I can't explain it fully, but I'll attempt to in words, what I saw. First, I was already taken above everything, like I was. Then I saw reality as all of the possibilities, I saw the pillowy edges of my blanket as a lotus flower, I saw infinite buddhas and I knew that their light made up everything. Even our bodies are made up of buddhas, and our senses feeling reality is touching everything. This is mostly what I remember, the buddhas, the light, and the source, I knew I'd gone into and given birth to the source.

Lastly, I looked at a picture of Krishna, and it became real. All the light around Krishna came alive, Krishna came alive, and I knew he was real, real in our hearts, and real all around us. I knew that God is always with us.

I thought an idea, which I will not forget and pursue the rest of my life. It is that God and man cannot be separated. Or that God and man are separated only by our lack of understanding. Because, I guess, if we understand things it will gradually lead to our salvation. This has nothing to do with Christan or Hindu, for me it was Krishna, but I know this to be the same God, the one God. God can't be limited to one religion or another, and trying to do so only misses it all.

Anyway, God with infinite power, and man with the desire for peace, cannot be separated. Life is just a dream, and as soon as Man is awakened to God's peace, he desires nothing more. There's no higher happiness than God's love, and God's revelation makes Man want to be with Him. God is in all of us, and we are always with God. We can only know God through God's grace, this is very specifically said in Bhagavad Gita and it's central to Christianity as well. But what does this grace mean? I've never had any inkling until now. Divine grace is awareness of our true selves, the selves which are invisible to us but with the light of god, the selves which exist in the source. But when we are with God in this profound way, then we feel so close to those people we love, especially those far away, because we see how close God is to us; yes it seems he is separated from us being the Almighty, but he has infinite power, and infinite love, and this makes him very, very close to us!

The fact is that Man cannot fail to achieve love, as long has he loves sincerely. He cannot fail to achieve wisdom, as long as he is willing to take it. Once he achieves his true self, he can know himself, and know what love is. When he sees God's peace, there is nothing else for him in this life except living as perfect as he can, because God's peace is seen in grace and perfection. And seeing and knowing God, he knows it's important, and it's important to share this light with humanity. There is nothing higher than this.

Hare Krishna!

The future is bright. Krishna is home. God is love.
