WATERThese Five lettered words spell everything, they give the meaning of life ,its existence, it's purpose ,it's source and what not.......
So what is water?? To me water is the most versatile forms of elements on this earth. It exists in neither state, it is neither solid, neither gas, nor is it liquid. It's the ultimate description of 'nuetrality'. Due to it's versatality, it is the perfect example of Budddha's Middle Path.. No wonder Jesus walked on water!!
It can transform from gas to liquid, liquid to solid & vice-versa. It has this versatile plastic capacity to mould itself into any environment. Water teaches us a lot, how to adapt ourselves to the changing environment, survive in it and emerge victorious out of it. It's immaterial, whether it's pristine or not, after all a lotus blossoms in the murkiest of all waters.
Water is universal, God's soul is itself imbibed in water, for he placed his quintessential self into this everchanging state.
As a kid I read a poem, "What if The World Was Made of Ink??". I can't recollect the poem, but at that time I thought the world would have been much better if it was made of Ice-Cream!! But now I apprehend, the world is better full of water, rather than that of Ice-Cream, after all could have Ice-cream quenched a traveller's thirst. Thirst can only be quenched by water. The murkiest of waters fare way ahead than the costliest of wines.
Like a desert traveller's thirst can be quenched by water, similarly a traveller in search of 'Moksha' , his thirst can only be quenched, by striving endlessly in pursuit of 'The Sovereign', and in this pursuit, God himself will usher the traveller and lead him into himself.
The Bible says he Soul goes from "Dust to Dust"; but I ask Why not from "Water to Water".
From the 'Reproductive medium' in the 'Mother's womb' to 'Birth'; from 'Birth' throughout 'life' and in the End, the soul interacts with water. There is a web, a pattern that follows, whether a person has been cremated, buried or fed to the Vultures eventually the soul flows through water and not through Earth.
The soul reaches the heavenly abode, through nothing except Water.
To this Watery soul is the "Watery Verdict" given. The soul bears no punishment up there, all kinds of retribution are undergone here only, for Earth itself is "Living Hell" . The soul comes to this filthy Earth, in it's most nascent form and here it indulges in worldly affairs,forms numerous tributaries, it's generations, that carry it's water in them,sins eventually receives it's retribution for the wrong that it did, becomes filtered, boiled and purified & reaches it's Ultimate destination "The Heavenly Abode" .
The watery soul returns to the heavenly abode unpolluted; There it's stored in 'Numerous Urns' and when all the designated urns are full of their waters, the Good Lord would make them flow in an infinite ocean.
The glacier from which this ocean will arise will be the "Master of Waters" himself, where will be able to settle in his state of peace. This ocean will neither be sweet nor salty, neither will it flow nor will it stop, it'll exist in a dynamic state.
In this ocean all the water and their erudition will flow.
AMEN
