“To God: How did you get invented?”
Sunta hai
guru gyani
Gagan me awaaz ho rahi hai jheeni jheeni Sunta hai guru gyani So says the voice and words of the Guru. The divine sound originates in the sky. Paahile aaye Naad bindu se peechhe jamaya paani ho ji Sab ghat puran guru rahya hai Alakh purush nirvaani ho ji Sunta hai guru gyani The soul originated from “nada bindu”. “Nada”, the sound and “Bindu”, the seed. The “Bindu” represents the male while “Nada”, the female energy. So says the voice of the Guru. Vahaa se aaya pata likhaya Trishna toone bujhai Amrut chhodso vishay ko dhaave Oolti phaans phansaani ho ji, phansaani ho ji Sunta hai guru gyani Your being arrived from there to an address in this world, to quench its own thirst – the desire for God. But putting nectar aside, you drink poison again and again. Going in reverse, you now toss and turn in your own trap. Gagan mandal mein gau biyaanii Bhoii se dahii jamaaya, jamaaya Maakhan maakhan santon ne khaaya Chhaachh jagat baparaanii ho ji, baparaanii ho ji The celestial cow of knowledge, Brahman is milked for the benefit of everyone.Knowledgeable, wise men opt for the butter (spiritual knowledge) while the world out of ignorance are content with the butter milk. Bin dharti ek mandal diisee Bin saruvar joo paani re Gagan mandal mein ho ujiyala Bole guru-mukh baani ho ji, mukh baani ho ji Instead of seeing earth, see it as merely a sphere. Seeing a lake, understand it is nothing but water. When one starts experiencing the underlying unifying principle over apparent diversity and duality, knowing dawns. So says the voice and words of the Guru. Oham soham baaja baaje Trikuti dhaam suuhaanii re Ida pingala sukhman nari Sun dhvaja phaharaani ho ji, phaharaani ho ji Sunta hai guru gyani When this happens, all the questions like “Who am I” and “So am I” are answered. Ida and Pingala are pacified and Sushmna is activated, says the teacher from the sky. Kahe Kabir suno bhai saadho Jai agam ki baani re Din bhar re jo nazar bhar dekhe Ajar amar ho nishani ho ji Kabir says, “Listen, Oh righteous brother. Understand and experience and become one with the non-ageing and eternal one principle who looks after this entire universe every single moment.” Sunta hai guru gyani Gagan me awaaz ho rahi hai jheeni jheeni Sunta hai guru gyani So says the voice and words of the Guru. The divine sound originates in the Sky. . “To God: How did you get invented?”  There’s a charming article in today’s Times by Alex Renton, a non-believer who sends his six-year-old daughter Lulu to a Scottish church primary school. Her teachers asked her to write the following letter: “To God, How did you get invented?” The Rentons were taken aback: “We had no idea that a state primary affiliated with a church would do quite so much God,” says her father. He could have told Lulu that, in his opinion, there was no God; or he could have pretended that he was a believer. He chose to do neither, instead emailing her letter to the Scottish Episcopal Church (no reply), the Presbyterians (ditto) and the Scottish Catholics (a nice but theologically complex answer). For good measure, he also sent it to “The head of theology of the Anglican Communion, based at Lambeth Palace” – and this was the response: Dear Lulu,
And then he’d send you lots of love and sign off. I know he doesn’t usually write letters, so I have to do the best I can on his behalf. Lots of love from me too. -Archbishop Rowan I think this letter reveals a lot about the Archbishop of Canterbury’s sort of theology. What the letter also tells us is that the Archbishop took the trouble to write a really thoughtful message – unmistakably his work and not that of a secretary – to a little girl. “Well done, Rowan!” was the reaction of Alex Renton’s mother, and I agree. source : Paulo Coelho's Blog

A wonderful story. I have already read some time ago. It reminds me
of another story. A good friend sent me. Unfortunately, I do not know
the author ..Lunch with God A little boy wanted to meet God. He grabbed some cans of coke and chocolate bars in his rucksack and set out on the road. In a park, he saw an old woman sitting on a bench and watched the pigeons.  The boy sat down beside her and opened his backpack. When he wanted to get a Coke, he saw the hungry look in his neighbor. He took out a chocolate bar and gave it to the woman. Thankfully, she smiled at him – a wonderful smile...! To see that smile again offered her the boy drink a coke. She took it and smiled again, more radiant than before. So the two sat in the park all afternoon, ate candy bars and drinking Coke.  "What have you done today for beautiful, that you look so happy ": At home, he was asked by his mother. The boy replied: "I have eaten lunch with God – and she has a wonderful smile..! " The old woman had gone home where, her son asked her why she looked so happy. And the old woman replied: "I have eaten lunch with God – and he is much younger than I thought." I wish you all a wonderful day.  http://youtu.be/x8b8v3CoLoY
