Positive Reflections For The Day - 25-4-25 and 26-4-25
Connecting To God With The Umbilical Cord Of Meditation (Part 2)
Meditation is the creation of positivity in the mind in such a way that the mind starts getting oriented in a positive direction above the routine thinking of day-to-day life. It is not making the mind blank or completely free of thoughts. In fact, it is making the mind full of positive thoughts and intellect full of positive visual images of the spiritual self or the soul and the Supreme Soul. We all know our physical self, who we are, what our name is, what work do we do, where do we stay, what is our nationality and how we look. But this is our physical identity and it is different from our spiritual identity.
The spiritual identity is simple – I am a non-physical being of spiritual energy, which is not made up of the five physical elements of nature. Also, I have seven original virtues – peace, joy, love, bliss, purity, power and wisdom, which is my original nature. I have come into this physical world from the soul world, also called paramdham or shantidham or nirvandham, to play my part through the physical body. Also, my Father, the Supreme Father and the Father of all souls is an Ocean of all these seven virtues, who stays in the soul world. This is my spiritual introduction and so is this the introduction of all the human souls of the world. Now, to link or connect with God, the Ocean of seven virtues, I have to remember my spiritual form as a sparkling star like energy and emerge my original virtues through the power of thought and visualization. This is the first step of meditation. After that, I travel with the eye of my intellect to the soul world and visualize my Supreme Parent or God as a radiant being of pure spiritual light over there and stay connected with Him for a few minutes. I absorb His spiritual energy inside myself, which is the spiritual umbilical cord. This is meditation, a union between the soul and the Supreme Soul. Also, the soul empowers itself in this way with a powerful connection and after that performs its actions in the world, full of all these seven virtues. Those actions will then become pure actions and will inspire others also. This is the magic of meditation.

Connecting To God With The Umbilical Cord Of Meditation (Part 3)
Practical meditation is something which you can do while being in your daily routine and not just at a fixed time like in the morning, before starting your day or in the night, before going off to sleep. In fact, it is a constant foundation of all positive actions in the day. After all, you need to fill your spiritual self with the nutrition of the seven different virtues from your spiritual mother or God through the divine umbilical cord of positive thinking and meditation. Only then will you radiate the same virtues to others. Often, negative actions in the day are performed because this divine and pure connection with God is not strong enough. In other words, the umbilical cord that we share with God i.e. meditation connection is cut off and we are so busy in our actions that God is forgotten. Also, when we are occupied in our daily routine and are performing actions, the connection that we have made in the morning meditation is weakened. So, if people are to receive goodness from us and love us in return, remaining in the womb of a spiritual consciousness throughout the day and absorbing its benefits from God is a necessity.
Also, this beautiful and pure womb of God will grow us spiritually and we will, as time passes, become beautiful human beings by meditating and focusing our consciousness on Him. We all love Him as a Father but He is also a Mother of all souls and is full of unlimited peace, love and power, just like a physical mother has these specialties, whom we all have been brought up by and experienced. One of the most beautiful and purest relationships in the world is that between a small child and his or her mother. So, God is the mother of the soul. And His love for me, the spiritual child, is the Highest in the world. So, enjoy the company of this most beautiful and loving eternal Mother. That means remember God in meditation and radiate His love and goodness to the whole Universe.
