In direction of the complete moon
by Rahul Kumar
The unraveling of Self realization may be very very like witnessing the dynamic phases of the waxing moon. First we solely discover a sickle formed moon within the waning mild of nightfall suspended over the horizon. We all know for the primary time its existence and really feel it’s cooling radiance within the silhouette of the evening fall upon our pores and skin.
Slowly because the moon expands, its mild will increase and we really feel it’s coolness with higher certainty and depth, however we additionally begin to discover, that it’s got craters, uneven options, within the rising mild we develop into more and more conscious of the imperfections that had been already there.
Then begins the method of religious cleaning the place we attempt to enhance upon the imperfections and unevenness of our inside being and diligently work them out however with the detachment that we’re not the imperfections, however the mild and we enhance and cleanse the mirror of our inside being in order that it may be a greater reflector of the sunshine.
This can be a essential stage which a lot of you might have arrived at, kudos to you, for going through your self within the mirror is usually a daunting process, it requires loads of braveness and honesty to just accept the state of your inside being and perseverance and endurance to work it out. It’s simple to disregard it, to disclaim it and return to the consolation of the identified of the earlier.
The subsequent step is to maintain your state, the expanse of your consciousness, your expertise of pleasure, by retaining the horizon away from clouds by letting the cool breeze blow repeatedly by common follow of meditation(particular person & collective), introspection and delicate cleaning as wanted primarily based upon vibratory suggestions of your Kundalini, if we achieve this diligently with out misidentifying or getting slowed down by our imperfections then invariably, we witness the dawning of fuller and fuller phases of the moon arrive on the horizon of our consciousness.
When the whole moon arrives, it’s mild floods our consciousness, in that mild misplaced are the craters and the unevenness, misplaced are all distinctions of you and me, solely mild of affection stays.
It’s that mild in its very fullness that impressed Rumi to write down these phrases beneath. In that full expertise of sunshine of divine love lies our future and supreme freedom. It’s love that evokes us, guides us and in the end takes us to itself simply as waves rise out of ocean, are of ocean and fall again into the ocean.
The place is that moon that by no means rises or units?
The place is that soul that’s neither with nor with out us?
Don’t say it’s right here or there.
All creation is Him however for the eyes that may see.
Rumi
