See, and the Gentle Seems
I not too long ago learn this stunning couplet from Sant Kabir:
जब मैं था तब हरी नहीं, अब हरी है मैं नाही, सब अँधियारा मिट गया, दीपक देखा माही |
Once I was, God was not; now God is, and I’m not. All darkness has vanished—the lamp is lit inside.
Kabir just isn’t talking of a deity exterior of us. He’s pointing to one thing much more delicate—the top of the “I,” the top of the self that’s ceaselessly searching for, evaluating, and turning into.
When that ceases, what stays is “mild,” or the illumination that arises when the thoughts continues to be and free from its personal shadow.
We spend a lot of life chasing mild exterior us, in wealth, possessions, standing, information, and even in spirituality. However so long as the self seeks, the darkness continues.
Maybe then, our actual work is to not seek for mild, however to see the darkness as it’s… with out working away from it, and with out naming it. In that seeing, the sunshine seems.
As you rejoice Diwali with your loved ones and mates, could you come across that mild.
There isn’t any larger readability and no deeper freedom than that.
Blissful Diwali.
