At birth, we exist. Then we become
conscious of our existence and the life around us. That self-awareness evokes a
force and power within us, which expresses as energy at various planes: the
physical, vital/emotional, social, psychological, and mental.
This energy is expressed as desire, will,
and an aspiration for things to happen in our lives. It can be at the level of
achievement, at the romantic level, at the level of creativity, or any other
plane of accomplishment and being.
This is parallel to the Infinite Reality
that extended its transcendent status to one of existence. As a result the
three powers Existence/Conscious Being (Sat), Conscious Force (Chit), and Delight
(Ananda) then extended Itself to enable a universe of an infinite variety of
forms seen and unseen that reflected Its Intention and Its Divine attributes.
Thus, the nature of who we are and the
nature of the Infinite Reality are parallel. Both exist, are conscious and generating
a force that contains a will for the purpose of manifesting something that will
culminate in Delight.
The difference is that the Infinite
Divine is fully existent, fully conscious of itself, fully generates a
conscious force and will that can bring about a universe, and therefore exists
in complete bliss of the fact.
We on the other hand, exist not in
perfection, are only slightly conscious of our being and life, put out a half
conscious force that will leads to results that are partial and incomplete, in
which we miss out on the discovery of our higher nature that could have brought
the same joyful and bliss of the Divine.
The goal then is for us to move from the
very partial Existence, Conscious-Force Delight to its fullness, which the
Infinite Divine is in essence. Then we will become infinite beings at the
physical, vital, mental, and spiritual of being, instead of the limited
individuals we are now.
We can do this by elevating our
consciousness; acknowledging our deficiencies and overcoming them; create a
mature inner life; discover our true self and open to the omnipresent spiritual
force.
Then we gradually become the Existence,
Conscious-Force, Delight (sat-Chit-Ananda) of the Infinite Divine, fulfilling
our cosmic mission in life.
