| Spiritualism: Deep Inside You | |
By Neelam Sethi |
To seek God only outside of us is to deceive ourselves. It separates us from our own divinity as well as from the rest of nature. It allows us to see ourselves as separate from the Supreme Power. A Muslim saint has expressed this beautifully:Tu khud hi toh khuda hai — "The Self is the God we seek". Unless we are able to turn our focus within, we will not be able to deal with our external lives in a balanced way. "As a bird needs two wings to fly, so a human being needs the two wings of existence, the spiritual and the material, to lead a natural and harmonious life," said Babuji, the second guru of the Sahaja Marga system of meditation. All spiritual paths prescribe meditation and contemplation. These paths help us seek God within. Buddha, Mahavira, Kabir, Jesus, Nanak and Sufi saints practised meditation as the method to uncover the divine principle within. -- Neelam Sethi http://newageislam.com/NewAgeIslamIslamSpiritualMeditations_1.aspx?ArticleID=5574 | ||
