No Separate God Exists, You Are the One That You Desperately Seek In Life

No-nonsense talk. Only for those who are actually thirsty to experience more in life.

I've to be harsh and straight. No god sits above the sky to judge, punish, or seek your validation. Run away from those who say this.

Why?

Because they are on their path. Wrapped in holy clothes and tongue-wagging holy texts doesn't make them more pious than you.

So what, even if someone is enlightened? So what if someone believes they talk to god? So what if someone even claims to be God?

The experience of others is not your reality.

If you are serious about exploring who you really are, then seek the experience and not some information to entertain your mind.

If you are unable to transform your life, even a God living in your neighborhood means little.

The time when 'I' dissolved and pure life claimed me.

During my utter silence for over a month, I experienced life in its pure form. Before that, I cried for the truth of life for almost my whole life.

I could do nothing to make it happen. But one day, it graced itself by dissolving me.

During those months, I experienced what is called godliness. It was infinite and profound.

I realized why this world is called an illusion. I realized how the mind wants to feel accomplished, valued, or seek validation. All my stories about myself, people, life, the past, or the future stopped.

Everything became crystal clear.

During those periods, my every identity was shattered. The definition with which "I" lived and operated evaporated. Ruchi was no more there. All attachments died.

But somewhere, 'something' within me was still noticeably palpable.

All my sensations got opened infinitely. It felt like the universe had dissolved me and engulfed me within itself.

I could not feel my body. My body was eating, but ‘I’ was not. Words were coming out, but ‘I’ was not speaking. The body was moving, but ‘I’ was not.

There was no feeling of me. Only utter silence. Even thoughts fell silent.

The silence was so intense that my body had to put tremendous effort into speaking.

Even though, at that time, I lived in a crowded flat with five family members. But all I could be was stillness.

And a profound energy pulsated through my body and expanded everywhere outside me.

There was no boundary between me and the tree standing or bird flying or clouds in the sky or even sky.

Everything was not one as well. But there was no 'me.'

There just was “IS.” Only -isness. No me. No Ruchi. No thoughts or feelings. Only -IS.

The experience stayed for me for a few months, and everything slowly adjusted to the new reality.

I'm not enlightened. I still witness the densities erupt.

But life has become effortlessly joyful and blissful. Even in pain, there is no suffering.

To reach your ultimate state of being, loosen your grip on what you think you are.

I shared my journey because I see many people revolving their lives on the periphery of the word 'God.'

Many people firmly clutch onto the idea of some external God. There is no right or wrong. But the truth of life is beyond the beliefs.

You might get intrigued by religious institutions or so-called spiritual people. You might follow their practices blindly.

But know that what you seek is not more money, love, or power. It is your ultimate actual being.

You may catch minor glimpses of your true nothingness being in everyday life. It can be through love, pets, nature, sex, addictions, or meditation.

And once you get a glance, you crave it again.

Then the mind overpowers and tries to grasp that thing within its grip. It can be the possession of another person, substance abuse, or anything. Hopelessly expecting it to duplicate the blissful experience.

However, it is not something that you can make happen.

Nobody can force it to happen.

But you can be conscious of your blind behaviors. Awareness helps you go beyond.

The more the light of consciousness shines, the more your ego dissolves. The more drama of religion or spirituality you can see.

The way goes through you. You are the key to unlocking the mystery.

Then why don't you feel that godliness?

Because you are stuck in the stories of your mind and thoughts. You believe your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs to be real.

And until you let them go, you can't touch your divinity.

Profound intelligence is dormant within you. It hides beneath your ego.

But you've fed your ego for your whole life. You nourished, strengthened, and polished your mind to survive and prove yourself. Some even get stuck in spiritual ego.

I've been a religious, spiritual, or meditator for so many years.

It is like an ego wearing ornamental clothes. But it is still ego.

You can not experience godliness till you let go of every ounce of your ego.

"Can I do something to expedite the process?"

The effort is in your hands. The results are not.

The 'you' I refer to here is the mind that says, 'I'll do whatever it takes to reach my ultimate self. Whether it is by meditating for years or by doing penance."

Yes, you can do whatever you want.

Despite that, the results are outside your hands. It is unpredictable, and the road is slippery without guidance.

Why?

Because we have trained the mind for decades, it will creep in to reclaim itself. You can't control it.

However, you can become aware of your unconscious actions.

Empty your mind to allow grace to happen.

Most seekers see spirituality as a cause-and-effect game.

I did meditation; I should feel peaceful. I am becoming aware. Now I should be enlightened.

Let go of all beliefs. They won't take you anywhere.

Direct your effort in the right direction. The intention is not to make something happen. Instead, it is to make your mind empty.

The path to your ultimate being is not long. It is simple.

But the mind makes it complex. It hides your true nature in an endless maze.

Empty your mind to realize your true nature.

  • Be conscious of the mind and its stories.
  • Create a gap between your thoughts and ‘you.’ Meditation and mindfulness help.
  • Don't fill your mind with spiritual bullsh*t. Don't waste time adding more beliefs to your already-filled system. Instead, be aware of your innermost feelings and emotions. They are subtle threads through which you can empty your cup for grace to enter.
  • Support your beautiful heart. The heart is the seat of the divine. Open your vulnerable and lovely heart to experience the intelligence of life. Don't underestimate the power of your heart. It is a powerful tool that makes you truly authentic and effortlessly strips down every fake mask you wear.
  • Excruciating pain happens when the ego is in its dying stage. Get genuine guidance when undergoing through pain phase. A true mentor will help you pass through this challenging chapter with ease.

The path to your divine self requires your dedication and trust in the process. Don't run away when the going gets tough.

Stay true to yourself even when things get challenging.

My path was through love. I underwent the most intense pain as I moved from conditional to unconditional love and devotion.

The pain purified the fake masks I wore in the name of spirituality, love, or God. It burned the ego. I held onto my mentor's hand throughout the phase until silence happened.

Without your dedication and authenticity, even grace can’t do anything. It will test you, and you can’t hide from it when the trial comes.

Final Thoughts

No amount of wealth, love, sex, or power can ever fulfill you. You try to seek your divine nature in everybody else or outside of you. There is no God outside. But it resides in you.

Beliefs will stop your exploration. Instead, strive to experience yourself because you are your answer. What you search for is your infinite being, not anything else.

And the moment you experience your true nature, your beliefs about the world and God crash like a house of cards. You get anchored in your beingness.

No religious talk or spiritual mumbo jumbo will ever get your mind to understand what it is. Taste its sweetness yourself. Don’t borrow its stories from someone else.

You are godliness. You are a pure life. You are intelligence. Explore your true nature.

Don't waste time making God happy. There is no God, just intelligence flowing through you and everybody.

The path to reach godliness goes through you. Be authentic and dare to go beyond the clutches of the mind. Support your heart to uncover your godliness.

Drive your efforts in keeping your cup (beliefs, emotions, and thoughts) empty. Only then ‘grace’ can enter through that space.
