On the eve of Holi, the festival of colors, Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj wished the large online gathering a Happy Holi. Holi. a festival celebrated in the East, marks the arrival of spring. Today, the spiritual Master explained the spiritual significance of the festival.
True Holi, he said, is celebrated when our soul meets the Oversoul, and we are filled with love for God. Separated from its source for eons, our soul has been wandering through creation, yearning to return to its true Home. When we receive a human birth, we have a golden opportunity to reunite with God.
While it may seem to us that this human life is long, it is but a short, momentary experience in the larger scheme of the soul’s sojourn. It is up to us to make the most of this opportunity, and we can do so by drenching ourselves in the colors of God’s love through meditation. Having experienced God’s love for ourselves, we should then take it upon ourselves to shower this love freely wherever we go so that we bring love and happiness into the lives of those around us. It is love, Sant Rajinder Singh Ji said, that will ultimately bring us back to God.
