The Gnostic Demiurge vs. The God of Love (KAL Mat vs. Dayal Mat) - Anurag Sagar Studies - Spiritual Awakening Radio Podcast

Used as the image for this satsang podcast, image credit, an illustration from, The Anurag Sagar. Notice the souls depicted as being held captive inside the Palace of Kal, the lord of time and illusion (called "the Demiurge" by the Gnostics). The Satguru does battle with Kal to free the souls. The genuine Living Teacher, the Sant Satguru, guides his or her students through this internal struggle with the mind or ego (the agent of Kal in the matrix of mind), this labyrinth of self-sabotaging, limited belief-systems of the negative power (Kal Mat: the teachings of Kal), so that the initiates may experience Divine Love, Light and Sound within and follow the Path back to God (Dayal, the Merciful One), the Ocean of Love.

Mystic Verses of Sant Tulsi Sahib on Love and Yearning

 

Mystic Verses of Sant Tulsi Sahib on Love and Yearning

The rainy season is specially chosen by Saints and poets in India for poems of love and longing. In this poem, Tulsi Sahib has compared streams and rivers overflowing with water to the lover’s eyes brimming with tears of yearning for union with the Beloved.

In whom longing for the Beloved has taken abode, 

Every moment his body becomes feeble and enervated. 

A stream of tears constantly flows from his eyes;

The pangs of pain ceaselessly smart his body and mind. 

Like rivers in Sawan and Bhadon, (1) overflows the stream of my love. 

Day and night I long for Him and tears fall like incessant rain. 

The pain for my Beloved increasingly penetrates my being every moment; 

My attention can be transfixed on nothing but him 

Even as the moon bird (2) never gets satiated by looking at the moon. 

Dark clouds gather and burst with thunder, and lightning dazzles the eyes. 

The peacock crows in delight 

and the rain bird (3) sings in longing. 

I yearn for you ever more, my body keeps wasting away in anguish. 

When I listen to the Sound, I lose my patience and I write to my Beloved. 

With mind and soul as my couriers, I send my message to His Inaccessible Abode. 

When I hear the tidings of His well-being. 

My heart is filled with love and delight. 

Ever since this yearning for the Lord has taken hold of me, 

I have severed all connections with the world. 

-- Sant Tulsi Sahib, Book of Shabdavali
