Finally it boils down to this: the challenge is
to love, the goal is to love, the aim is to love.
Every human and animal and plant and tree and
stone goes through the motions of like and dislike and acceptance and
resistance, till winds and waves and heat and cold and age reduce it to
nothing. Blessed is the tree that understands the wind, blessed is the stone
that loves the crashing waves, blessed are the animals that do not question,
blessed are the humans who understand the need for everyone’s being and so feel
compassion for all.
The blessing is to recognise and understand
that no individual acts on his own, that there IS no individual; that each one
is a part of a bigger concept called God; that this God or Soul or Aatmaa or
Entity stretches from infinity to infinity in terms of time, space, thought and
dimension.
The craving of every being is to finally
understand, accept and acknowledge that whatever will be, will be; that everything
imaginable, or otherwise, does happen.
The so called ‘good’ and ‘bad’ are
dependent upon each other for definition and will always co-exist. We just have
to understand and accept. The terms are subjective anyway; my fault is always
more easily excusable than the other person’s!
Good and evil will always compete and fight.
But it is nothing personal. It is something like the way we enjoy delicious
food that tingles the buds; it is so pleasing, yet it goes hand in hand with
each one’s private darkness and of foul smells and excreta. But when accepted
with grace, they all become normal functions of natural existence.
The acceptance of the imminence of all that is
going to happen provides relief from worry, guilt and blame. It cuts down to
size the big ‘I’ and elevates ‘Him’ who is the planner and the executor.
One’s own shortcomings become easier to bear. Appreciation
of what one has dawns upon the mind. One learns to forgive oneself. The worry
lines on the forehead start smoothening out.
As one learns to forgive or accept oneself, so the
feeling of compassion for others creeps in. The only way to accept someone else’s
mistakes is by being able to face and forgive one’s own.
The
day we realise that each creature is following its own destiny, including
humankind, we are all set for love.
