Are you aware that He has been forever waiting for you for, eons and eons, for generations and centuries? He is waiting until one day, you may turn to Him, seek His love, share His love, ask for Him, or at least seek something from Him - the universal mother, the Divine parent. Like a compassionate patient mother, He ever waits for each and every one of us. However, we are so engaged, immersed and fettered to the phenomenal world that we are not even aware that there is someone, who is full of love waiting for us. He lies in wait, day after day, and what do we do? We find something else to occupy ourselves, to amuse us, to while away the time with. And if we cared to ask Him, He would assure and reassure us that nothing could possibly harm us once we are under His wing. Yet, do we ever ever heed His call, do we turn to Him? How many of us even think of God as close to us? How many of us only turn to Him in times of trouble? How many of us pray daily with no real thought that He even exists! We do it as an insurance policy, just in case! This is our folly. God is as real as you and I, in fact, even more real, even our forms are the ultimate illusion. Remember that utter and complete devotion to God is a rare gift from Him and it cannot be attained by effort, austerity, through prayers or by rituals, it is purely and simply a golden opportunity for us to cleanse and purify our lives.
