Age New Spirituality – Inspirational Stories ( Part 101 )

The whole of nature is worship of God. Wherever there is life, there is this search for freedom and that freedom is the same as God. Necessarily this freedom gives us mastery over all nature and is impossible without knowledge. The more we are knowing, the more we are becoming masters of nature. Mastery alone is making us strong and if there be some being entirely free and master of nature, that being must have a perfect knowledge of nature, must be omnipresent and omniscient.Freedom must go hand in hand with these, and that being alone who has acquired these will be beyond nature.

Blessedness,eternal peace,arising from perfect freedom, is the highest concept of religion underlying all the ideas of God in Vedanta -- absolutely free Existence, not bound by anything, no change,no nature, nothing that can produce a change in Him.This same freedom is in you and in me and is the only real freedom.

God is still,established upon His own majestic changeless Self. You and I try to be one with Him,but plant ourselves upon nature,upon the trifles of daily life, on money, on fame, on human love, and all these changing forms in nature which make for bondage. When nature shines,upon what depends the shining? Upon God and not upon the sun,nor the moon, nor the stars. Wherever anything shines, whether it is the light in the sun or in our own consciousness, it is He. He shining, all shines after Him.

Now we have seen that this God is self - evident, impersonal, omniscient, the Knower and Master of nature, the Lord of all. He is behind all worship and it is being done according to Him, whether we know it or not. I go one step further. That at which all marvel, that which we call evil, is His worship too. This is a part of freedom. Nay, I will be terrible even and tell you that, when you are doing evil, the impulse behind is also that freedom. It may have been misguided and misled, but it was there; and there cannot be any life or any impulse unless that freedom be behind it.
