As you walk steps closer and closer to God,

 

  You sometimes experience  

 

The elation of your own Supreme Divinity.

 

Your body rocks with sobs.

 

Your love and devotion

 

Peak above your body limitations.

 

You momentarily experience the self,

 

Losing body consciousness.

 

At other times you experience,

 

A depression of self-inquiry

 

You feel an emptiness of being unrewarded,

 

In your search of the self.

 

You lack motivation and you may even

 

Doubt the existence of God.

 

I call these the “high tides” and “low tides.”

 

Water in the ocean travels in waves,

 

Rising up to a peak and then flowing down.

 

It is only when it reaches the shores,

 

That the waves settle near to a ripple,

 

And then from a small ripple

 

To a water level that is constant. 

 

You too are a wave,

 

That will travel through its “highs” and “lows,”

 

Of experiencing and understanding

 

The divinity within.

 

As your journey comes closer,

 

The waves become only a ripple,

 

And when you attain Godhood, there is only bliss.

A single blade of grass is a weak, contemptible thing. But twist a number of 
them together, it forms a rope strong enough to bind a rogue elephant.  One man 
is a weakling, many bound together by Love into a strong combination, can 
achieve great things.

 

The Light of Love, pg. 84
