Realize Our Oneness through Meditation
Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj presided over the 9th “Global Meditation in Place” online event today. Prior to placing a large international audience in meditation, he spoke of our connectedness with all God’s creation and of how meditation helps us realize our oneness.
Living at the level of our physical senses, we live in a world of duality, believing that we are different and separate from God’s creation. This belief creates barriers among us and causes us to lead lives that are not loving and that bring disharmony and turmoil into our surroundings. Saints and mystics come into this world to remind us that we are here to live in harmony with all of God’s creation, the spiritual Master said. It is when we live in love, when we embrace each other, and when we extend a helping hand that life is lived as God meant for it to be lived.
To lead this kind of life, Sant Rajinder Singh Ji said, we need to realize our oneness and embrace everyone as an extension of ourselves. This realization dawns on us only when we transcend the physical world and journey into the inner spiritual regions through meditation. As we experience the divine Light and Sound of God within, we awaken to the realization that the same Light of God that shines in us also shines in others. Imbued with God’s love, we experience a personal transformation that impels us to embrace everyone as our very own. We begin to lead a life of love and compassion in which we are of service to all. We learn to live in harmony with all God’s creation and strive to bring joy and happiness to the world around us.
