tHe dAy wE MEt gOd...

********************

~~ we were a group of six frends on a divine journey to Vaishno Devi... (one of the most sacred places on Earth..in India)..

7 hours, 12 kilometres (7.45 miles) walk, uphill... on the mountain path... with people around you, who came in search of gOd.. 

..on our way.. with all the energy and enthusiasm... we were walking, on our path.. shouting out loud "Jai Mata Di"...!!

On ur way to Vaishno Devi.. all around u see, is the serene nature.. which you have always wanted to be a part of.. the nature which gives u the strength to do the impossible..

tired but not lost.. still on our way.. we had a motivator among us.. if she would read this, I am sure she would get to know... 

well.. everything was goin fine... we were all packed up with two back-packs... a wonderful journey..

bt in our mind was all God... coz that is wat we were here for...

i dnt knw if my frends have noticed... 

bt in our journey... we met God...

it is wen we covered more than half of the journey..

he was there in a rugged cloth... dressed up as a begger... 

... he was there watching all of us.. and looking for an opportunity..

God met us on our way.. I still remember his eyes... whre he had that shiny beautiful eyes... eyes like i have never seen... eyes that looked for truth... 

his eyes were commanding.. as he luked at us... this is the fact only my frends knw who were there wid me.. I am nt sure if they recognised him or not... bt he came out of nowhere.. straight to me.. 

===========================

when he commanded.. 

bt he said... "main aapke paer (legs) dawa doon....??," (can I massage your leg??) 

 i replied.. "are nahi...!!"  (oh no..!!)

I still remember... I dnt knw why all of a sudden I asked him: 

"Aapko kya chahiye...??"  (wat do you want??) and 

he replied: "mujhe ek icecream chahiye.."(i need one icecream..)...

yes... thats wat the begger asked for... an icecream... bt why not money??

well.. thats all we talked..

at that moment... I was completely out of my senses... so i dnt remember which icecream i bought him... all this happened in a quick fraction of time...

and we moved on.. 

as we walked ahead I luked back... and he was luking at me... with his sparkling eyes... eyes.. i have never seen before.. it luked straight into me.. and he started eating the icecream...

===========================

this is the first time I met god sooo closely... 

there were 20-25 devotees sitting on the sidewalk.. and we were a bunch of young chaps... having cup of coffee/tea.... why did he come straight to us???

as I said earlier... u have God in you... its in u.. wat makes u do good... all that you do.. with positive intention has God in it.. and god knws wen to show up.. and give u the chance to show the god in u...

i am sure you didnt get wat I said..

let me tell you guys.. wen u r sincere... u have a god in u..

wen u r in love.. you have god in u..

wen u r in pain... he is in u..

wen u r alone.. he is in u..

wen u r in a crowd.. he is in u..

where ever you are... watever u do.. and wenever... God is in u.. and He is in others around u... he is everywher.. just as it is said in the video in my previous post..

it is wen u see the god in you... u see the god in others... 

and it is wen u see the god in others... the god in you shows up on you..!!!!

guys... one's eyes are the mirrors, his spirit... and it is your eyes, which tell the others abou the god in you...

u dnt have to do anything for this to happen... all u have to do is be gud.. like Jesus did..

sounds easy.. right???

bt u knw wat??... for many of us, it is the hardest thing to do in life...

coz a human does everything with an expectation to get something gud in return...

 

try to be gud to everyone and anyone... try to be gud in your gud times and in the bad..

 try to be gud to those who does not return to u the same way... 

try to be gud who beats u... and u see.. the human in u will wake up.. and do wat it knows....

it is human to fight back with wat is thrown at him... bt its godly if u throw flowers back on those, who throw stone at you...

it is the hardest thing for a man to do... bt why??

becoz we humans are full of sins..

Namely:{ PRIDE~~ENVY~~ANGER~~SLOTH~~GREED~~GLUTTONY~~LUST }

as i said in the previous post..

it is wen you rise high above all the sins that you see the God... the god would be in the person sitting next to you... bt u have to recognise him.. and let me tell you... wen you see the god in the other... it is the god in the other who talks to you....

and u see that everyone you meet.. loves u... after all love is god... isnt it??...

wen u see all humans around u.. u find that you are one of them.. and do wat a human does...

bt it is wen u find the god in everyone u meet... the god in u shows up.. and that is exactly wat shows on u... yes.. it gets u the Aura and the charm thats just the smallest part of god's grace..

-----------------------------------------------

well... let me tell u wat happened when we reached at the top... at Vaishno Devi..

for some reason.. that was the day.. wen over 2 lakh devotees gathered there... people were sleeping on the sidewalks for the past couple of days, waiting for their chance to see and visit the main temple/cave.. and here were we... came from Delhi, with limited time in hand, as all of us had work to catch up with, the next day on...

wat to do?? we were all puzzled.. one of us tried to get a VIP pass with her approach, which was very promising.. until we got to know that the temple authority is not issueing any passes or tickets to get in.. although we had the general tickets, bt with the overwhelming croud.. it was pretty abvious that we would not get through, atleast on that day... also we had to first get a locker room for ourselves where we could keep all our belongings.. which seemed to be impossible to get one... for the queue for that locker room was some 100 people long.. without any movement.. as the lockers were all booked..

we were at the verge of returning home without seeing the main temple... 

and here again came out of nowhere.. two guys.. who pro-actively approached us... asking us to use their locker... they simply offered us their keys and asked to keep our belongings there and return their's..

this is the rarest of the cases and with all this we got a locker room.. and we all headed to the main temple... with all the heavy croud ahead.. pushing through them.. we managed to get into the main gate and now all we had to do... is to wait.. wait for our turn... and finally.. we saw those amazing, serene and one of the most divine God's place.. 

that was one hectic, completely exausting day... we all were completely tired bt amazingly happy for wat we have achieved...

---------------------------------------

bt I am gonna tell you the truth now... I could not find the god within the cave where those sacred god's image is... 

i felt the god is not there anymore... god is out there.. within many of us... 

bt i still remember... when his eye raised and said.. I need an icecream... 

~~~ i think he got wat he needed... which was definitely not the icecream....~~~
