The Ultimate Goal Of Soul

There’s no reason why we cannot

hop and up like those free falcons

or velvet clouds to kiss a sunspot

and be for others bright beacons.

The supreme goal of creation is for us, Soul, to go from the immature state of human consciousness, which causes us all kinds of troubles, to the highest awareness of God, which is God-realization. Childhood may be blissful in most cases but the fun-filled life of the youth is a thrill of a lifetime. Yet, the freedom attendant to the full life of adults is always as tantalizing to children and the youth as the urge to fly free in the air like birds is to man. Yet, we soon grow old and in some cases, infirm and die only to be reborn to begin all over again. Until we achieve the ultimate price, the exultant state of a Spiritual Traveller, our greatest happiness and freedom will only taste like a bitter concoction when compared to the honey of the peak of realizations.

As butterflies, we go from tiny eggs to caterpillar to pupa and to a winging specimen of beauty and freedom. Even after we might have learned to fly, still we must graduate from the heaviness of the green earth, past the pink colour of emotional instability, travel beyond the orange light of memories and past-life burdens, up into the blue world of mental confusion, then persevere until we pass the purple plane of subconscious existence and finally into the blissful yellow world or pure Soul. And the journey does not end there. With the guidance of the Dream Master, Soul continues to transform from lower colours until it becomes as pure as the white music of God. So until your light shines as the whitest lightning to light-up the dark for others to see, wing on free Soul.

Until you stand on top of the ziggurat-rooftop of God's temple, fly higher than the strong hands of gravity could reach or kiss the peak of the himalayan forbidding heights, to dine with the blue-eyed eagle, never look back at mortal earth. The risk of falling back to mortal earth is ever-present. But the persevering Soul will always triumph.
