SYNOPSIS: The article focuses on visualizing the kindness of ALMIGHTY GOD at all times in all circumstances. At every moment & all times, we continue to receive shower of GOD’s kindness. But we can visualize this kindness of the ALMIGHTY only through our “devotional eye”. We will never be able to visualize it with our human eye. And we can never repay this gratitude by any means, we should not even conceive the thought to repay. Instead we must make efforts to remain humble & dear to ALMIGHTY GOD at all times so that we continue to receive the shower of kindness from HIM. For doing this we need to compulsorily choose the path of devotion. When we will make an effort to visualize GOD’s kindness in our life, we will find that the first instance of kindness was when we were in the mother’s womb in a most miserable state and therefore prayed for help & was rescued by the LORD with birth. After our birth, we can immediately visualize the second instance of GOD’s kindness, when HE sent our food in the mother’s breast. HE sends the food prior to the birth of the infant who is without teeth, in form of mother’s milk which is no less than divine nectar for the new born. (Even modern medical science had undisputedly accepted that this nectar has no earthly substitutes.) We can also visualize the third instance of GOD’s kindness when HE sowed the mother’s heart with seeds of attachment & affection (Mamta) for the infant. Even a women who is quarrelsome & short tempered by nature, raises her child with great affection & placidity, contrary to her nature. That woman could be very bad for the world (her father-in-law, mother-in-law, sister-in-laws) but she becomes a perfect loving mother for her child. This spells GOD’s kindness in form of attachment & affection on the newborn. As per a popular old saying, GOD had said that HE has deliberately filled the mother’s heart with attachment & affection so that HE can ensure goodness for the newborn at all times. Therefore it is true that from behind the mother, it is ALMIGHTY GOD who showers kindness on the infant, and we must understand this fact. The showers of kindness from GOD continue to befall on us, but we need a “devotional eye” or at least “a devotional Lorgnette (specs)” to visualize it. Devotion towards GOD should never be for the purpose of repaying GOD’s kindness in our life. Even to think of repaying, is a sin. Because if devotion for GOD has come in our life, it is also a kindness of GOD, infact it is GOD’s greatest kindness on a soul. To continue receiving GOD’s kindness in our life, we should compulsorily continue on the path of devotion. With the first devotion ray, we start visualizing GOD’s kindness in our life. It feels great to see the GOD’s kindness in our life and we get attracted towards GOD (world & illusion becomes secondary). With the second devotion ray, we start visualizing GOD in our heart and we start loving HIM (GOD is present in each & every heart, but with devotion we are able to feel HIS presence within ourself). With the third devotion ray, our love for GOD becomes so great, becomes so vigorous that our strong attachment with HIM leads for the oneness / unification of our individual soul with the UNIVERSAL SOUL. The greatest aphorism in a human life is to learn the art of visualizing GOD’s kindness at all times, though our wisdom. We must also, without delay, take the recourse of devotion, to continue receiving such kindness of GOD in our life. With devotion, you will find that even in compelling & unfavorable situations, you will be able to visualize GOD’s kindness. Even if sometime happens contrary to your wishes, you will start understanding that it was as per GOD’s wish and therefore this kindness of GOD is in my best interest. Through our wisdom if we are able to constantly visualize the kindness of GOD and if we are able to constantly upkeep devotion for GOD in the bottom of our heart, we attain the real height in human life. The word ‘constantly’ is of importance here. Our wisdom does sometimes allow us to visualize GOD’s kindness whereas at most of the time it leads us to (falsely) believe that GOD has not been kind to us. Likewise only sometimes our heart is filled with devotion for GOD whereas at most time it is filled with desire for earthly pursuits. But the real height of human life is only when at all times our wisdom visualizes the kindness of GOD and at all times, our heart is filled with devotion for GOD. If we try to practice this, our wisdom gets purified and our heart also becomes pure & unsullied. Purification means whatever evil was present in our wisdom and in our heart, starts getting washed away. Purified wisdom is the perfect home for the MERCIFUL GODDESS to reside and purified heart is the perfect home for the MERCIFUL GOD to stay.
