Lead me to You...
However
passionate I may be about my materialistic pursuits,
I
am not complete without you. So, I need you.
The drop of protoplasm,
that's formed when the sperm enters the egg, grows into a foetus in the womb of
the mother, only when it comes in contact with that formless source of life. In
the womb of the mother, the form was with the formless in a state of unison.
Through the process of birth, in coming in contact with the world outside, the
inputs through the senses happened and thus the mind came into existence. With
the 'mind' coming into existence, the state of unison between the form and the
formless was lost, causing the pain of separation, which resulted in the
emotional personality coming into existence. To help the emotional personality
to avoid the pain, the intellect also came into existence. Which means, before
the first stimulus, there was unison between the form and the formless; man was
with God. And with the first sensual experience, the three intermediate
personalities came into existence, namely, mind, intellect and emotional, and
the unison was lost.
Man's first desire and the only desire, is to re-experience
that state of unison between the form and the formless. However, since in
coming in contact with the world outside the unison was lost, human
intelligence has been erroneously searching for answers in the outside. Hence,
all the intellectually projected desires in the materialistic realm. All the
other creations have only instinctive needs, and that's why they don't have
futuristic desires. Man alone has intellectually projected desires and hence
his desires are futuristic. As a result, at any given time, the number of
unfulfilled desires in man is greater than the number of fulfilled desires,
causing all the agitation in him. While there can be spiritual answers to your
materialistic needs, there are no materialistic answers to your spiritual
needs. No amount of fulfilment of extroverted desires, no extent of achieving
your materialistic ambitions is ever going to satiate your spiritual hunger for
unison. So, when spiritual masters always said, “Transcend desire to transcend
suffering,” they were not referring to your intellectually projected
materialistic desires but speaking about your spiritual desire for unison. And,
the only way to transcend the spiritual desire for unison is by experiencing
the state of unison. And, the only way to experience unison is by experiencing
the state in which you drop and transcend your three intermediate personalities
of mind, intellect and emotions.
The very purpose of religion is to help you to drop and
transcend the three intermediate personalities of mind, intellect and emotions,
and thus experience unison between the form and the formless. So, religion is
basically a means to spirituality. It is all about converging from 'Many to
one' and then from 'One to none', the state of unison. The word 'religion' has
its Latin roots: Re Ligare, that is, Re (again) Ligare (to reconnect).
It is by transcending your identification with your mind,
intellect and emotions, you will annihilate your ego, and thus transcend the
perceived duality, and for the first time you experientially experience that
God and you are always one, the state of Unison.
So the infinitheists pray, “Lead me to you” meaning, “I will
not be merely satisfied with your kingdom alone, my Lord. I need you. I am not
merely seeking yours, but I am also seeking you. For a child, however dear the
toys may be, the toys still don't substitute a mother. Similarly, my Lord,
however passionate I may be about my materialistic pursuits, I am not complete
without you. So, I need you. So, my Lord, live in my heart and please my Lord,
lead me into your heart…”
So the eleventh line in the infiniprayer, to complete the
prayer - Lead me to You.
