Unfathomable Truth

‘Where does your mercy end?

I see a glimpse of you every moment and find your presence in every creation.

The eyes open in the morning and we find ourselves alive. What else can be a better proof of God’s existence? However, it becomes difficult to believe in something that is invisible and we cannot touch it, so is God.

No matter what, whether we believe it or not, the truth is that there is someone who is the creator. A power that establishes balance and control in the whole universe every moment despite being invisible.

This belief in creator draws our attention to the fact that no one teaches the new born to breathe, yet he is able to breathe.

Does anyone teach a fish to swim? Why is a bird born with wings? Every creature is different, everyone’s needs and necessities are different, and still the universe caters to all the differences. Every creature has an avenue for survival.

For all different beings, their actions and conduct are different, yet related to each other.

Like a lion’s karma is hunting a deer and the deer’s action response is to save its life and then one day, finally be hunted. That’s how the habitation is diversified.

The question arises, despite all differences, how does the whole thing looks so systematic? Who is the captain of this large ship? Is there someone who drives this caravan? Does this thought not rise in us?

Thought!

Yes, the most special thing that we humans are only blessed to have is thought. If we can think, then we have a chance of moving forward. There is scope for search and growth. Otherwise, in absence of thoughts evolution may stop. Although, growth has different meaning and prophesy for different individuals, however, progression is important.

Let’s come back to the topic of faith. Faith in the presence of that invisible power, but in its absence too.

Does this presence and absence establish a firm belief in us? What is this belief based on? What is its importance in the life of a human being?

Presence of God is more of emotions that we carry within, yet we consider him to be everywhere. And at the same time, we are aware he is not.

This may sound like a contradiction. However, actually we should have faith in God’s presence because it is not there. And when we start believing in his absence, when we agree that it is not there, then maybe it becomes even easier to have faith in HIM.

When the same unfathomable truth appears in both its existence and its absence, then we are prepared to trust ourselves. Now if there is no one, there is no presence of anyone, then it becomes most important to have faith in us, because after all we are there, we the seekers of God. And perhaps this is the only option and solution.

Qualities like truthfulness, non-violence, kindness, compassion, tolerance, and mentorship have been considered as the character of God and we can discover the same characteristics in ourselves.

So, can we see it as a God’s conspiracy to make us believe in ourselves? Does not this look like his preparation to tell us that he is there, within us? He is living, breathing, celebrating in us.

Meera knew that there is no other God in any other form. That is why Meera accepted herself as the centre of all energy and devotion and went on her own quest, embracing her Mohan who was again within her. To love Mohan is an example of how Meera wanted to convince herself that there is no such thing in real presence as a form, that you can love. And, when there is none present, you are yourself.

From here begins the faith on absence of the presence and vice-versa.

When this belief reaches its peak, then our own capacity increases so much that no one else remains important, nor required. Then a new journey begins of Meerahood, a state that is completely aware of the non-presence of someone else to love or to worship anywhere outside us. The journey from Muhammad To-Mohan- to ultimately becoming Meera. Evolution of man into consciousness.

Evolution of Muhammad from Meera;

Meera’s Journey to Muhammad.

Meera’s Muhammad

Meera’s Muhammad

Did the name startle you?

Amalgamation of Meera in Muhammad. The cosmic merger of two different entities into one soul. The difference is not only in name, religion or culture, the difference that is of time and era. Can we envisage this thought?

Meera, a consciousness and Prophet Muhammad her cognizance to explore the heights.

Muhammad Sahib to be a source of perseverance and patience for Meera.

Something eternal, an everlasting state which was beyond time and beyond space.

Now, can we see the possibilities of little bit of Meera in all and little bit of Muhammad in all that exist? In all of us? And then they come together to make a complete existence.

Can we believe that we are born with the possibilities to reach the highest levels of realization?

We do not realize that we all are part of cosmic consciousness, the way Meera was and in a similar way was Muhammad Sahib.

The self is realized when we become completely integrated, completely one with this cosmic consciousness, which is what happened to Meera and she found the her own inner self being a source of consciousness, and Mohan was a face of that consciousness for her, a path to discover herself, her own form.

Through the existent to non-existent, the transcendence of human to divine, what Meera could experience, is possible for all.

The way Meera found her own form in Krishna, there is a possibility that she could have found the similar depths of awareness in Muhammad Sahib too. There are no boundaries to cosmic consciousness.

The purpose here is misunderstood, it is never about devoutness to some, it is about searching the self. The source can be any, we may find through ourselves, or any name or path, the ultimate destination of finding self.

Can we conceive the idea that we have Meera and Muhammad both, living with us, within us?

Does that make a difference? Does it make us curious to know what is inside this?

We, consider here that everyone is aware of Meera and Muhammad Sahib, The Prophet. Even if not aware of their complete journey, maybe of bits and pieces.

Would just say that little bit of homework is required before we start this book if are completely unaware of them.

Meera and Muhammad, what is the first thought that comes to your mind, while reading this?

If you are expecting a religious propaganda, then this book is not for you.

We are not talking about religious differences. Not about diversities to the origin of different religions.

Or, is it us wanting it to be a whoopla of Hinduism vs Islam?

Can we accept Meera and Muhammad together? And may be, Meera’s devotion for Muhammad instead of Mohan.

Can it be Meera’s Muhammad instead of Meera’s Mohan?

Can she be still respected equally if her devoutness flows for Muhammad Sahib instead of Mohan?

Meera’s devotion was never about religious bounds and social barriers. It
