Soul seekers

Longing is the core of mystery.
Longing itself brings the cure.
- Rumi -
You were eternally fixated on God in your creation, and the pull of this fixation is so strong that you will never overcome it. The reason is perfectly clear. The fixation is on a level so high that it cannot be surmounted. You are ALWAYS being pulled back to your Creator because you belong to Him. Do you really believe you can make a voice that can drown out His?

- A Course in Miracles
You long for something different and call it a search for God. Isn't this what got you into trouble in the first place?


Bring Me to Life

Without a soul, my spirit is sleeping somewhere cold.
Now that I know what I am without, you can't just leave me.
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul, don't let me die here.

Find it there and lead it back home.

The Holy Longing: Spiritual Yearning and Its Shadow Side
— by Connie Zweig, PhD.

In many only the spark remains, for the great rays are obscured. Yet God has kept the spark alive so that the rays can never be completely forgotten. If you but see the little spark you will learn of the greater light, for the rays are there unseen. Perceiving the spark will heal, but knowing the light will create. Yet in the returning the little light must be acknowledged first, for the separation was a descent from magnitude to littleness. But the spark is still as pure as the great light because it is the remaining call of creation. Put all your faith in it, and God Himself will answer you.
- A Course in Miracles
The whole world is pining for light and freedom. To respond to this recurrent and poignant demand, there always arises a plentiful supply of those who claim to meet it adequately. Most of these claimants are impostors. - Meher Baba
