Opening Remarks
It is Her Love that alone can change this earthly life into a Life Divine. It is Her touch that will bring the harmony we need, the wisdom we lack and the bliss we blindly and ignorantly seek. She is our hope for the Future.
Her sweetness’ home
All here shall be one day her sweetness’ home,
All contraries prepare her harmony;
Towards her our knowledge climbs, our passion gropes;
In her miraculous rapture we shall dwell,
Her clasp shall turn to ecstasy our pain.
This world as it now stands is not a harmonious place. There is disorder and disharmony, conflict and clashes due to the fundamental ignorance striving for true knowledge. But one day all this will change because it is She who has undertaken to transform our discord into harmonious unity, our ignorance into knowledge, our suffering into ecstasy. All here shall one day turn into a home of Her sweetness. All the contraries shall complement each other. The knowledge that we seek here but hardly find, the joy that our passions blindly seek but never touches shall all be discovered in Her clasp that shall turn all pain into an intolerable ecstasy of the Lord.
One self with all
Our self shall be one self with all through her.
We shall discover the secret of unity and harmony by living in Her and with all beings through Her.
Transformed in Her
In her confirmed because transformed in her,
Our life shall find in its fulfilled response
Above, the boundless hushed beatitudes,
Below, the wonder of the embrace divine.
By dwelling in Her vast, infinite luminous consciousness we shall be transformed into what She would want us to be. Fulfilled by Her our life shall move between the boundless hushed beatitudes, the Divine Peace above and the wonders of the Divine unfolding here upon earth.
Intolerant flame
This known as in a thunder-flash of God,
The rapture of things eternal filled his limbs;
Amazement fell upon his ravished sense;
His spirit was caught in her intolerant flame.
This knowledge that dawned upon Aswapati in a flash of intuition filled his limbs with the rapture of eternity. His senses were ravished with amazement and his spirit was caught up in Her intolerant flame that brooks no obstacle in the end and is sure to reach its goal.
Once seen
Once seen, his heart acknowledged only her.
Once seen he could not turn towards anything else. Such is the compelling power of Her Love and Her vision. Having seen Her one cannot seek anything else.
Infinite bliss
Only a hunger of infinite bliss was left.
Only was left a hunger for the infinite bliss that grows through our contact with Her.
Found in Her
All aims in her were lost, then found in her;
His base was gathered to one pointing spire.
He learnt the great secret that it is by losing oneself completely, by giving oneself in entirety to Her that one rediscovers oneself in a transformed way. His whole body and mind was now a single flame of aspiration rising from the base to reach towards Her.
