As you walk steps closer and closer to God,
You sometimes experience
The elation of your own Supreme Divinity.
Your body racks with sobs.
Your love and devotion
Peak above your body limitations.
You momentarily experience the self,
Losing body consciousness.
At other times you experience,
A depression of self-inquiry.
You feel an emptiness of being unrewarded,
In your search of the self,
You lack motivation and may even,
Doubt the existence of God.
I call these the "high tides" and "low tides".
Water in the ocean travels in waves,
Rising up to a peak and then flowing down.
It is only when it reaches the shores,
That the waves settle to near a ripple,
And then from a small ripple
To a water level that is constant.
You too are a wave,
That will travel through its "highs" and "lows",
Of experiencing and understanding
The divinity within.
As your journey comes closer,
The waves become only a ripple,
And when you attain Godhood, there is only bliss.
