POWERS OF GOD

GOD IS POWER

POWERS OF GOD

God is the Almighty Authority in this universe. He is the master of Almighty Power in this universe. He is the ocean of powers. He is the Light house and Might House of this universe.  He’s the POWER HOUSE – we all are HIS CHILDREN and we need to charge / enlighten ourselves/our lives; inherit HIS PROPERTY OF ALL POWERS and thus, become THE MASTER POWER HOUSES.  

The basic powers of God are –

·       The power of knowledge

·       The power of peace

·       The power of purity

·       The power of love

·       The power of happiness

·       The power of bliss

·       The power of 8 powers – which can be briefly coined as -

o   Power to tolerate (Tolerance power)

o   Power to face (face situations)

o   Power to cooperate (with each other)

o   Power to imbibe/ inculcate/ embed (the good values within ourselves)

o   Power to withdraw (oneself from evil)

o   Power to pack-up (from the worldly relations)

o   Power to distinguish (between good and evil)

o   Power to decide (Decision-making power)

We humans (souls) are the children of the Almighty Authority. So, naturally we, children inherit all the powers of God and are The Master Almighty Authority.

As per Genetics, in human beings, every trait (characteristic) is present in every being either in dominant (visible) or recessive (hidden) form. And, according to the dominant or recessive form, the personality of a human being is formed. This forms the reason that few human beings are Knowledgeful (full of knowledge) whereas few show less or very less intelligence (lack of complete knowledge).

GOD IS BLISSFUL

BLISS (PARMATM ANAND - PARAMANAND)

Till now several times, we have discussed, experienced and inculcated the divine virtues of GOD namely- God’s knowledge, God’s peace, God’s piousness, God’s love and God’s happiness. On fulfilling ourselves with all these divine virtues, we attain the stage of Bliss – the highest and purest stage of the soul. After experiencing God’s divine virtues of knowledge, peace, purity, love and happiness; we as human souls have filled ourselves to the level of utmost fulfillment. 

 As common humans, we desire for satisfaction, necessity and happiness. Our lives revolve around mere reasons for attaining happiness. We, human souls, merely wander around in search of materialistic happiness. Once when we attain the stage of SUFFICE - means when we, the human souls, have filled ourselves and all our organs with the divine virtue of Happiness; then we are ready to sail our lives' boats beyond the shore of happiness. 

SUFFICE means fulfilling ourselves with everything -

a) that we need / require

b) that which is our necessity

c) that what we desire for

d) that what we are passionate about, etc.

After attaining the STAGE OF SUFFICE, we free ourselves, our lives, all our relations, all our belongings (materialistic and non-materialistic), everything - IN THE HANDS OF THE ALMIGHTY AUTHORITY. 

We, human souls need to surrender our heart and mind in the hands OF THE ALMIGHTY AUTHORITY.  Very naturally, as an infant solely surrenders himself / herself under the safest shield / canopy of his/her mother. The infant knows nothing in this world /about this world, about the purpose of his birth in this Universe, about his family, about the society which his upbringing would occur, about his friends, about his near and dear ones - he is absolute unknown to all those factors which would either MAKE UP HIS Life or ADD up to his life or INFLUENCE his life or even become a LIFE-CHANGING THRUST FOR HIS LIFE. 

What all the INFANT knows is very simple - one word answer -  MAA / MOTHER / MOM. What the infant experiences is - only the familiarity of his mother's lap's warmth and the warmth of his mother's love. This warmth is experienced by the infant only and only through - COMPLETE SURRENDER to his mother.  

Similarly, alike all infants, we human souls need to surrender ourselves (our heart and mind) to the ALMIGHTY AUTHORITY - GOD. As the infant is unknown to all facts and figures occurring in his life which may form his PAST, PRESENT OR FUTURE; we also need to surrender OUR PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE in the Hands of the Almighty Authority.   
Once, when we leave the shore of belongingness - means MY LIFE, MY FAMILY, MY HOUSE, MY WEALTH, MY HEALTH, MY SOCIETY, MY LIFE, MY COUNTRY, MY WORLD, MY UNIVERSE - Leave all MY, MY, MYs i.e. surrender all these MY, MY, MYs to the Almighty Authority; then we may start experiencing the UTMOST PUREST DIVINE VIRTUE OF GOD - BLISS (Paramatma Anand). Leave all shores of the ocean, simply feel like a free-fish and dive deep into the ocean of life irrespective of the fact whether you know or not- the rules of deep-diving / the rules of swimming. Forget the fact that as mammals, we can't survive in the depth of ocean. Forget all the truths and facts of your life - all troubles, all tensions, all stress, all worries and SURRENDER YOURSELF TO THE ALMIGHTY AUTHORITY. NATURALLY, you will feel - all troubles, all tensions, all stress, all worries are getting wiped off your life and have flown away deep into the core of the ocean - the soothing and calm waves of the ocean in which you have dared to dive into, have taken away all the irritations, worries, etc. far off from your life.  

In words, God's Bliss cannot be explained. This particular divine virtue has to be experienced and inculcated within ourselves. 
We all know that Gold is found in Ore form in the nature. The Gold's ore is treated to a very high temperature of around 1000-1100 degree celsius. Similarly, we human souls need to pour all our divinity / positivity / negativity (these 3 form the ORE of the HUMAN SOUL) - into the ACTIVE VOLCANO OF MEDITATION  in order to experience GOD'S BLISS, fill ourselves with God's Bliss and become BLISSFUL.

PRACTICAL  EXPERIENCE OF “GOD IS BLISSFUL”

I am a soul (star-like) seated on the throne of my human body’s forehead. I, the soul, am wearing the costume of a human body. I reside with my father, the Almighty Authority GOD high above, beyond the horizon in the Abode of God. I am sitting very close to God, just beneath him. He is showering his BLISS upon me. I can feel, his BLISS is easily and naturally flowing within me, the soul. By and by, I am trying to imbibe God’s BLISS within me. He is making me BLISSFUL. I can experience GOD’s BLISS within myself, the soul. God’s pious BLISS in form of pious BLISSFUL rays is entering into myself, the soul. My whole human body is experiencing God’s pious BLISS. As if, the God's BLISSFUL rays have entered into my every body part, every organ. I am feeling, as if, God’s pious BLISS is flowing along with blood in my whole body and rejuvenating my entire human soul / body.

Oh! God, such thanks to you for making me an EVER-BLISSFUL SOUL.

By inculcating God’s BLISS within myself, I am trying to become MASTER BLISSFUL - THE CHILD OF THE ALMIGHTY AUTHORITY, GOD.

To attain God’s true BLISS is my birth-right because I am the HEIR to God’s BLISS.

Keep on repeating (many many times) :

I AM A BLISSFUL SOUL.

I AM A BLISSFUL SOUL.

I AM A BLISSFUL SOUL.

I AM MASTER BLISSFUL – THE CHILD OF PIOUS BLISSFUL GOD.

I, MASTER BLISSFUL SOUL, AM ALWAYS SAFE UNDER THE SAFEST SHIELD / SAFEST CANOPY OF MY MOST BELOVED GOD.

GOD HAS ERECTED ME AS AN EVER-BLISSFUL SOUL IN HIS UNIVERSE.

OH! LORD, DO ACCEPT MY GRATITUDE TOWARDS MAKING ME AN EVER BLISSFUL SOUL and helping me in representing YOUR PIOUS and DIVINE LOVE, PURITY, HAPPINESS and BLISS amidst all your creation in this universe.
Thank You Almighty for making me Much Alike Yourself - in order to spread all your divine virtues and divine powers among your children - the human souls of this Universe.
The whole World is One Family; 
The whole world is GOD'S; 
I am God's
Thus, the whole world is My Family. 
THANK YOU MY LORD! 
THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!! 
THANK YOU FOR EVERY MOMENT!!! 
THANK YOU FOR EVERY BREATHE OF THIS WONDERFUL PIOUS DIVINE BLISSFUL LIFE.

SOURCE OF ALL DIVINE QUALITIES

God’s Pious Love Is The Immortal Source Of All Divine Qualities

As discussed earlier, God is the immortal source of all divine qualities/ divine virtues/ immortal values. The moment, you attain the knowledge that God is the only source of divine qualities/ divine virtues/ immortal values, you need to realize that God is your father, mother, guru, teacher, companion, friend, colleague, guide, assistant – each and every relation must be honestly shared with him. Then at that very moment, you develop a bond, a loveful bond with God. By and by, this bond strengthens and you start loving God. With time, God attains a very important rather most important place within yourself. AND GOD BECOMES YOUR MOST BELOVED ONE – one with whom you share each and every pious relation, you share all important or casual events occurring in your lives – these all you need to do honestly and sincerely. 

The moment you start sharing a pious relation with God, you start experiencing his divine qualities within ourselves. 
God’s pious love makes you firmly believe that GOD IS YOURS. 

REPEAT SEVERAL TIMES THIS FACT TO YOURSELF – 

GOD IS MINE,  GOD IS MINE,  GOD IS MINE. 
On experiencing God’s divine love, 
this LOVE will act as the doorway 
to attain God’s other and in fact, all the divine virtues.

By and by, a stage will be attained - 

Where YOUR HEART AND SOUL WILL SPEAK TO YOURSELF -
I AM GOD'S,  I AM GOD'S,  I AM GOD'S.
I BELONG ONLY TO MY MOST BELOVED ALMIGHTY.
I AM HIS,  I AM HIS,  I AM HIS.
 (HIS - stands for GOD).
