Afraid of Losing Love? When a relationship starts to spiral downward, I panic. I can’t bear to see all the time and love I put into it be for nothing. Why do I experience this turmoil? Why can’t I let go more easily? The turmoil of lost affection you are experiencing is actually Soul’s desire for God.
The higher you go into the states of consciousness, the greater will become the problems you encounter. This life on earth is a golden opportunity for Soul to make important strides toward Its goal of self-mastery. Although the way may be hard at times, know that the Mahanta is as near to you as your heartbeat. Your spiritual goals are in the right place, for you strive to do the best in all things. A reminder is the power of the spiritual exercises to give you a strong aura that cannot be easily broken by outer events, which will always try to pull you from the love of ECK.
No matter what outer events arise to throw us off our spiritual center, we must return to the Sound and Light. We must lock on to them as the only things we can trust.
The storms of life separate the cosmic sailors from the meek landlubbers. Look always to the Light and Sound of God within you, and you will always sail the cosmic sea.
