Voyage to Eternity

The first step to realizing oneself is: understanding that worldly possessions are false. Next is: knowing that God is the only immutable power and He is our only refuge. And subsequently embark on the voyage towards the Ocean of Bliss called God. Do charity while you are prosperous. Perform poojas and sing the Lord’s praises.

You maintain a separate travel kit containing your toiletries, maybe a toothpaste sachet, sample soap, a small comb and so on — to use during your travel, don’t you? You have made ready everything that is required for your short-distance travels in this world. Have you prepared yourself for the long-distance travel beyond?

When you start thinking thus, you will realize that nothing belongs to you, and start scoring victories in your quest, victory in terms of knowledge of Truth. Then you will be able to distinguish Truth from deception. When the Lord of Death comes to take possession of you, none gives you company (‘Velai namanum varuvaanil thambi thanaiyar thunaiyaamo?’). But the world does not understand this Truth.

I am not waiting for a call from anyone. I am only waiting for God’s call.
