SHIFT YOUR ATTENTION FROM THE WORLD TO GOD - Kirpal Singh (w/Audio) “So you are to divert your attention from the world to God, that’s all. God is already within you. He is not living in the Heavens. He is the very Power that is controlling you in the body. So this is what is wanted, just see where you stand. If you want God, or the God-in-man, you will have Him. These are things we have to check daily, where we stand. We have been doing one sort of practice or the other, or joining different schools of thought, for years and years. What is the fruit? What is the net result? Have you developed love for God? If so, you have made a true profit from your human body. If not, then . . . . . ? you have made the preparation to come back again and again. So love needs no performance, rituals or out labels. It does not even want your body. It is a matter between you and God. The human body is given to you as a golden opportunity in which you can direct your soul to God. You will go where you are attached. Very simple, no philosophy required. If you are really attached at heart to God, or the God-in-man, naturally you won’t return. You will go where He goes. Masters do not want anyone to change their outward forms or rituals. Remain where you are. You are souls, conscious entities. You have been endowed with this golden opportunity of the human body. Just direct your soul towards the very Power that is controlling you in the body. The body is the true temple of God, in which you as well as God reside. Outward forms or rituals or labels of one school of thought or another make no difference. The master looks at you from the level of the soul, not from the label that you are wearing on your body. He looks to you as a human being, as soul. The same Controlling Power is active in your heart. Have you understood what is love? It is a subject of heart, not of head. A very learned man may be devoid of heart. Love overrules head, but sometimes head stands in the way of love, of the heart. These are the things that we have to judge day today, how far we have developed love and in which way, this side or that side. To the world or to the WORD. W-O-R-L-D spells world. If you take out the ‘L’ from the word WORLD, then it becomes WORD. When you lose the ego of ‘I-hood’ by becoming a conscious co-worker of the Divine Plan, you are Word. GOD is WORD. ‘The Word was in the beginning, the Word was with God and the Word was God’. Spirituality is not difficult. It is, I think, the most natural, most easy way. In the worldly things, you have to make a hypothesis and put in years and years of study. Even then, you cannot boast that you know everything of the worldly things. But by doing the other way, you come to the root of all Creation. It is only to direct your attention from this side to that side. This is the way to God, now you can judge what you want. You will have everything that you want in due course, but why not want God, that you may be His and He may be yours? Nobody else to intervene, neither body, mind or anything in the outside world.” (Kirpal Singh. “Morning Talks”. Ruhani Satsang 1970. Pp. 39-40) In the LightSong of Eternal Love, May the Blessings Be!
