Good Times, Bad Times, Transcendental Times
Just as every worker believes that everyone
should be a worker, and just as every merchant
or priest believes that everyone should be
a merchant or a priest, so a devotee
knows with spiritual certainty that
everyone is born to be so much more
than a worker, merchant, priest,
military man, judge, doctor, scientist, etc…
Upset when there are good times, angry
when there are bad times, and pacified
when there are transcendental times,
good times and bad times go into building
up a structure of consciousness that is
peacefully indifferent to the creation
and destruction of everything that is
judged as being good because of
pleasant sensations and everything
that is judged as being bad because of
excessive strain and worry.
Like that ant which is crushed by an
unassuming foot on the side walk,
the untiring foot of progress can turn anyone
into a dot on the sky of infinity; thus releasing
the soul from the matrix that is duality.
Unprepared for the worst and for the best,
this unassuming attitude is open to falling
down and then getting back up;
thus facing the helpless within and without
so that I may be helped in turn.
Frightened by intimacy and bewildered by distance,
transcendental times restores the soul’s health
back to its pristine and honest benevolence;
which is a sure sign of recovery from
the plague of fearfulness that is close to perdition.
Keeping the dream alive after having
it being trampled on by persons who lack
foreknowledge or foresight, the eternal dream
of God is the dream worth striving for.
That eternal dream being a stream for the
cream of devotees, processing the good
and the bad times with the transcendental times
is the purifier of infinite dread and infinite might.
Producing tidal waves of miracle upon miracle,
the unending ocean of good qualities
belonging to devotees are as
irresistible as they are deadly.
Deadly to an atheist’s sense of grandeur
and irresistible to those who have
humbled themselves, just as the Lord
beautifies His ornaments, the
devotees beautify the Lord.
Inaugurating a new age of love
of God for all, the energy of devotion
in the past is the same energy that
is coming in now through the opened window
of the open soul’s heart gate.
Finishing this elixir of illuminating truth
and illuminating courage, this warrior of God
takes off his helmet to free fall through the aeons.
Nothing to live for and nothing to die for,
the immortality of transcendental times
is felt by all who are receptive to
the Spirit of God as it comes crashing down
on timed eternity. There being no dire warning
from so called illuminated sources,
the illumination provided by serving God
is enough to enlighten ten thousand worlds,
so what to speak of a lone individual stuck
in the blissfully beating sun of God consciousness.
With this vision firmly planted in your heart,
there is nothing else to do but to be
a humble servant of God’s eternally
manifest and unmanifest pastime servants.
Taking a grain of courage to rise towards
the most supernal planes of consciousness,
the power is within you to take on the
darkness of this world. When most gain
strength in material power, the superior path
is to place all of your spiritual strength in God’s service.
With little left to say, do His divine bidding as
He has done your natural blissful bidding always and eternally.
