Signs of Spiritual Ecstasy

A sign of spiritual ecstasy
Is that you curb your conversation regarding knowledge of Truth for the sake of others
Who's minds are of a more delicate constitution.

Spiritual Complacency vs. Spiritual Seeking

There is a thin line between spiritual complacency and spiritual seeking.
In which group do you find yourself?

Make Your Way Towards God

The self is lazy and incites towards trouble,
But the rules of religion often seem rigid and extreme,
So how does one follow to find a balanced path in this life?

Luckily I've found that, when left to my own devices, I generally make my way towards God.

God Is

God is like a good spouse who sees only your positive attributes and actions, overlooking the others

Or He is like a faithful parent,
Defending you even when you are wrong.

He is your guardian angel, protecting you from mishaps,
He is your very breath, giving life to your body, your mind and your soul.

A Life Saving Operation

My friend told me last night that one of my favorite prayers is like a knife!*

She tried praying it and her life changed violently. Things were snatched away without a moment's notice. Attachments were cut.

But what is a life saving operation?
It is a sharp knife in the hand of a knowledgeable and skilled healer.




*The Third Kalimah prayer

A Grateful Heart

I was crying out to God about something the other night,
Yet I was ashamed to supplicate at all when I have my health, and such good fortune in life,
"You have a grateful heart" Gabriel told me.

Healing in the Minds of the Masses

I had a brief spiritual aspiration to be like Mother Theresa,
To orchestrate facilities for the healing of millions.

But then I had an epiphany:
A healing, in the near future, will occur in the minds of the masses.
Once the majority of people are empathetic, compassionate and of right mind,
The models of the past will be obsolete. 

Healing will begin to take place in every interaction between people.
Suffering on the earth will be greatly eradicated.
God, make me a vehicle of these changes.
