Thinking of You 4
Thank You Aum. Thank You Bha. Thank You Gye Nyame.
Thank You Aum. Thank You Bha. Thank You Gayatri.
1
You are pervading and transcending
every atom, proton, neutron, electron,
subatomic particle all vibrations, and
the spaces between them. You are the
Source of all Sacredness, and the only
One worthy of worship.
2
Our Divinity unfolds from within as we,
awakening in Your Silence, and service.
By surrendering all our thinking, feeling,
willing, doing, all praise, and
thanksgiving to You we are remembering
this fact.
3
By always thinking of You and
remembering You, we now have
experience that we are not the
temporary material body with an
eternal soul. We are the eternal soul
permeating and transcending the
temporary material body.
4
The True Self is the Soul, and You,
our Source, are the Super Soul,
pervading and transcending all bodies
throughout the creation.
5
The source of our problems is, in our
ignorance, identifying the self to be
exclusively the material body,
consciousness, awareness, or /and
lower intelligence.
6
However, the Self is Eternal Intelligence,
in quality One with You, the Eternal
Light of Divine Intelligence within all.
This knowledge of Self is working for
us, solving problems, providing
practical answers.
7
Moreover, we think of You as the Prime
Witness, the Purest Consciousness, the
Paramount Awareness, the Changeless
One, within, above, and beyond all the
changes of the material worlds.
8
Although all have a modicum of
resemblance to You, none can equal
the dazzling beauty of Your
magnificence in Truth, Righteousness,
Love and Peace.
9
All good qualities, virtues, Infinite Peace
of Being, calmness of behavior, and
the power to control of lower
intelligence, awareness, and
consciousness by Higher Intelligence,
have their source in You.
10
We think of You as the Most Pure and
All Attractive, our Common Ground,
and our Shared Source. You have
countless names and forms, and there
is nowhere where You are not.
11
You pervade and transcend length, width,
depth, height, space, and time. You
cannot be taken from us by any force.
We think of You as the Source of the
power of the Sun, Moon, and Stars.
12
You are Greatest Witness of the Infinite
Tranquility at the foundation of all Being.
You are the Greatest Self within and
beyond all. The Cosmic Manifestation is
barely a spark from Your Infinite Splendor.
It is surely absorbed back into the
Crystal Blackness of Your Infinite Space
after its manifestation.
13
We think of You as the One, the eternal
Source of unlimited bliss and knowledge.
You, all we need, are within us, and we
are within Your Supreme Intelligence.
You are the Centerless Center, and
The Infinite, Omnipresent Intelligence
which pervades and transcends all.
14
By always thinking of You, and
remembering You, we rise from the
consciousness, awareness, and
intelligence of brutes, back to our
original position of Divinity, Eternal
Pure Intelligence.
15
Thank You for showing us how to
remember You during the painful
as well as the joyful moments of life.
You alone, constant and everlasting,
are the only reality. You never cease
existing and never change; all else
is illusion. It does not exist.
16
Our primary concern here is to always
think of You, transcend the illusory
worlds, Maya, and come back Home
to You, our Eternal Life of unlimited
bliss and tranquility. We have begun
this inner journey by always thinking
of You, and remembering You. Thank
You for Your righteous and enlightening
guidance.
17
We think of You as the vast Silence
and Its Witness. Remembering You
in this way, we gradually reawaken
from the illusion of Maya.
18
Gradually, we are awakening to You
and are beginning to enjoy the self
within the Eternal Self. It is here,
now, we do not have to die to
experience the Self. In fact, we
can never die. Death is for the
body, not for us, the Soul.
