29. Signs Of Divinity
Many people are confused about how to recognize a truly divine person from pretenders. Be clear! A divine person always radiates love and energy.
There are many pretenders who play intense mental games and become schizophrenic. Understand that they can never be divine. Their ego plays a double role. It is like a game children play. When they play, they stand in front of the statue and pray to God: 'O God, give me your blessings!' Then they open their eyes, run and stand behind the statue and say: 'My son, I bless you!'
Words like Telepathy, I get the command, are all expressions of our ego most of the time. Our own ego plays a double role. We become the divine and the the person needing blessings. Our dual role leads us to become schizophrenic and some patients start acting like God.
To confuse us the pretenders show some special powers. They fall into a hysteric state and predict the future. Intuition tells them these things. It might seems as though God has descended on them.
The truth is clear to all when we look at the faces of these fortune tellers. They are always tense, suffering from tension of an inexplicable kind. Understand! If God descends we will see only joy and bliss on a face. These fortune tellers are restless and agitated. Some of them shout and create strange noises. That cannot, can never be God.
The signature of Divinity is totally different. There is no way we will miss the Divine. When the Divine descends, it brings in with it a different ambiance. Divinity is beauty. When divine descends, it is so beautiful, so ecstatic and blissful, because God is filled with love and energy. He radiates this love and energy. He radiates compassion, never restlessness.
Even in our daily meditations and spiritual practices we can easily fall into this trap. We think that we have heard something. If we intuitively figure out one simple incident, our ego will blow it out of proportions. Be careful and watch these mind traps.
Our mind plays both the roles subtly. When we become aware of it treat it as warning. Let us not cheat ourself. Visions, communication, and predicting future happen at the mental level. Go beyond the mental level. Enter into the search for enlightenment in earnest.
Let us lead our search inwards and look for divinity with in. Experience it least once, to understand what divinity is all about. Divinity is love. Love to survive.
