This human life is a great blessing. It was given to us by God so we can find our way back to the Creator. Our soul has been separated from God for eons and yearns to reunite with its Source. As humans, we have all the faculties needed to traverse our journey Godward.
Elaborating on the gift of human life, Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj today explained how life could be considered a race that each of us must finish. We have reached the finish line when we complete our journey back to God. However, it is not a race that we need to win by achieving first, second, or third place. Instead, it is a race where we need to help each other get to the finish line and reach the ultimate goal. We can do this through love, and through love, we can each progress on this journey to be one with God. Love is the name of the game.
How can we have love for our fellow beings? It begins, said the spiritual Master, when we experience God’s love through meditation. As we bathe in divine love, we become embodiments of love, and it radiates from us to all in our orbit, with no effort on our part. As we journey toward God’s Abode, spreading the fragrance of the Lord’s love, heaven will come down on earth. This is the vision of the saints, and it is the vision that will carry us back Home.
