bliss bliss bliss

Thought for the day
God's creation is interdependent. In order to maintain balance, each and everything that we take for our use should be repaid.
From the book Bliss, Bliss, Bliss

Once I asked Swami, “Shall we take earth up to Vaikunta?” Swami said, “Earth cannot be taken to Vaikunta, but we can bring Vaikunta to Earth.” It means that Earth will change to Vaikunta. This change, this transformation is the Sathya Yuga. People will be transformed in a spiritual awakening. They will become great souls of love and wisdom. The whole world will become Vaikunta, a heaven of total peace and bliss. There will be no trace of sorrow or fear.

We can go to Vaikunta with the Grace of God. As the story goes, it was time for Krishna to leave His mortal coil. So, Indra, Yama, Brahma, and other celestial gods were waiting to see Krishna on His way back to his Divine abode, Golok. But Krishna did not take the path that they thought He would. All were surprised at how Krishna returned to Golok. It was through His pure will, which does not require a path as such.Similarly, a bhaktha who is in a sublime state of devotion and self-surrender does not require a path to go to Vaikunta. The Grace and will of God will bring Vaikunta to his doorstep. Note that such a bhaktha should be an Ananya bhaktha, one who knows nothing other than God and one who has earned the Highest Grace. It is by pure love and devotion alone that such bhakthas enjoy Bliss Supreme.

Once Swami declared, “My will reigns! I will become the ladder between earth and heaven. I will make the salt water sea into the sweet water sea.” Oh Lord, what is the meaning of this? ‘Sweet Water Sea’ means the tender coconut water sea. Swami means that earth will become Vaikunta and the Sathya Yuga will dawn.

In the Sathya Yuga like in Vaikunta, all will be Nitya Suris, great eternal souls. Oh Lord, your Grace is Supreme. It is an incredibly immense task to transform Kali Yuga, which is now at its lowest ebb to Sathya Yuga. We have heard that at the end of one yuga, there is dissolution before another yuga starts. But now, we are going to see the miracle of one yuga being transformed to another in front of our eyes. We are going to see earth becoming heaven. Oh Lord Sai, King of Avatars, millions and millions of prostrations at Your Lotus Feet!

I am unable to contain the feelings that ebb from my heart. I am not able to find the right words to express my love and gratitude to Lord Sai. I can only dedicate my tears on behalf of all souls on earth for His mercy!!!
