Open the floodgates of new life. Let in the fresh, healing waters of direct perception. Your life-force flows from the Infinite Reservoir of creativity, life, joy and power. The Holy Spirit, the Amen, the Aum, the Creative Vibratory Motor that keeps everything in manifestation; your life-force/consciousness flows from that.
It is the most glorious thing. If you open the faucet and that new life flows into your mind and body, you get so buzzed, so high with bliss and joy. It is all-encompassing. It is the fountain satiating all dreams and desires.
The moment the five senses are engaged in an infant, the faucet is turned down. It still trickles through, a trickle is enough to maintain the life-force. The mind and body hosts the consciousness/life-force, but like a dirty container the mind and body gets clogged and dirty, muddying the hosted life-force. Sickness, disease and negativity appear as a result.
The act of meditation turns off the physical senses, and so the person becomes conscious of the life-force animating the body and mind. This is the ultimate sense organ, for it animates all the other senses. The life-force plugs into the force/vibration underlying all creation/possibilities, and so it has access to infinite creativity, all knowledge and wisdom.
All things may be postponed for the sake of meditation.

Intense Joy without the Price Tag
The mind can be trained to experience the most exalted states of being, a level of lasting joy only tasted for a few brief moments in the life of the common man. Without any outer stimulus or condition required, as it normally is in the invocation of emotion in man.
Almost without exclusion, the normal human will only experience emotion in response to an outside situation. Yet, the emotion has its source from within; no outer condition can directly invoke or place inside the being a feeling or emotion. A mental process is responsible for that, a process conditioned on outer stimuli.
Witness that the conclusion of the mind and the accompanying feelings may be completely unrelated to the truth of the outer condition. If I damaged your car, but tell you that you won a lottery, then you would feel very happy when you should feel very angry. Or if you are told something ambiguous, and the mind makes the incorrect interpretation, then the wrong feeling would be felt.
The capacity of man to experience inspiration, love, joy, elation, fear, hate is independent of any outer condition, for feelings and emotions are sourced from within. This is an absolutely profound realization. The mental programming, which can be actively changed, is responsible for the feelings experienced.
As it is, one can tap into the source of good feelings, through training, so that one would be able to experience more joy and bliss than a normal person ever experiences. With zero correlation between one's outer circumstance and the emotions experienced, which is contrary to the full correlation for a normal human.

Point of No-return
Of the many defining moments in life, one stands out above the rest. A moment that completely dissolves the past and future. It is the moment of Enlightenment, the point of no-return. An individualized life-force has to develop and evolve through multifold strata of incarnation, from elemental to complex being, over billions of years.
A monumental feat is accomplished when the differentiated consciousness merges fully back into God-consciousness. The moment is so magnificent that the entire Creation echoes the brilliance and is infused with splendour unbounded.
All the ideas, beliefs, plans and limitations of the ego about the past and future are obliterated in that instant of illumination. Billions of years of growth have led to this point. There is nothing greater than the moment a soul is fast-tracked on the road to full Remergence.
It is an attainment so utterly grand that if the person only knew then they would have spend every waking breath contemplating and working towards it. The point of no-return is reached when the person cannot go back into old ways that have led the path astray.
The subtle fragrance of Spirit pulls the person inward and bestows the sweet tastes of joy and peace. No more effort has to be spent in his spiritual quest, gently he slides and then melts into the purity of his True being.
Slowly he glimpses more and more on Inner Worlds. His eyes close to the illusion of the outer world, and open to the sights of higher realms of existence. Daily he travels on the seat of his asan to destinations unmatched in the physical world.
The Devas call upon him with gifts and the lures of lesser attainment. When he eschews them God Self intervenes and bestow upon him the greatest gift of all.

Proof of God
Alas many people have been desensitized by the illogical tenets of organized religion and dogma that they have disregarded their innate divinity outright.
Normal people seek the world, but all who are wise seek the kingdom of God. God is Satchitananda, ever-new joy, and in deep meditation one experiences pure bliss and joy that surpasses any thought of description.
Do not concern yourself over the concept of God or over proofs of his existence. That is not the issue here. If you silence the mind through concentration you will soon behold the divinity of your own self.
There are a number of universal human experiences that alludes to the divinity inside each and everyone of us. Those include the vision of the spiritual eye, the sound of the Aum, the kundalini experience, the breathless state, and the experience of ever-new joy and bliss.
By seeking within yourself you will find the fulfilment of all your dreams and desires.

Ye are gods
The ego is a product of the physical brain and body. The ego is the chemical process in the brain, the firing of neurons, which tells the mind what to feel, what to think, and how to respond and interact with the world. The synapses are weighted according to the conditioning of the individual; so the ego is almost wholly a product of the physical environment and conditioning.
When this understanding is given enough consideration, it will become apparent how limited the ego really is. To rely on a chemical process alone to help one make difficult life decisions will not produce the best outcome, far from it. Given that we are multi-dimensional beings that are essentially Spirit, makes it seem like madness when a chemical process should dictate how our lives are lived.
You should not identify with your chemical process, that is the most severe self-imposed limitation. Your real identity is the life-force that animates your physical body and mind. Your Soul. Your Consciousness.
Many religions continue to make the grave error of not distinguishing between ego and consciousness. Yes, ego is inherently sinful and limited, utterly incapable of becoming divine, but one is not one's ego! One is one's consciousness, the animating life-force that exists independent of the body as evidenced by, amongst others, astral projection.
The core message of Jesus is misinterpreted, and if he would deliver again his message of the innate divinity of man then christians would try and stone Him all over again. Does it not say in your scriptures: Ye are gods?

You don't have to be responsible
How is it that the human, with its limited ego, should be responsible for maintaining its own life? Animals work with nature, they are not concerned about the needs of tomorrow, yet they manage to stay alive and even thrive. There is no conscious thought process applied by humans to keep their hearts beating. In deep unconscious sleep their hearts keep beating and they keep breathing without the involvement of ego. How do billions of humans manage to feed and clothe themselves on a daily basis, and how do they even succeed in doing that for their helpless children? It seems to be a momentous feat by the limited animal brain of the human, when the human in general works against nature. Humans in general never give consideration towards how nature sustains the life-force in their bodies, they even defy such claims by attributing all accomplishment as the product of the ego.
How can a human be responsible for making the best choices in life, when his ego is so limited? It seems to go against nature when humans rely upon their egos, when all other animals rely upon nature. Intuition is the voice of nature in the mind of men, and to rely fully on that source will produce the best outcome.
Swami Ramdas relied fully on God, relinquishing his ego totally, and he never wanted for a thing. He literally had thousands of people following him, never promising them anything and never wanting anything from them. Even when he isolated himself in desolate locales the locals still appeared bearing gifts and food. Granted, India has the ideal climate for renunciation, but I am fully convinced that if that experiment were to be repeated in any place on earth, nourishment would appear out of thin air if there were no hands to carry it.
Any resource, whether it be time or money, that is sacrificed to find God will be returned a hundred-fold. Finding God is the be all and end all of life. Any measure may be spent in this pursuit and it would significantly outperform any other investment.
