"Does God Aspire"? asked the snake.
"I had asked you to meditate upon this", said the yogi.
"They say God cannot desire. This calls for a high spiritual understanding. If God does not desire, there is no need for creation, life, and God itself. The God of no desire can only rest in a void, in the primordial state, why should He go for the dynamics of creation? The God of no desire would thus be a neutralized force. Such a state of God can last for longer than the age of the universe itself, "
the yogi was becoming very still.
"Then, there is a stir, and the God of desire begins to vibrate. This vibration is His nature. He always aspires for play and growth. He is not just content with tranquility, as in the state of extreme nothingness. He needs to manifest, needs to reflect His own power of needs creation, to put it to use. So the process of cosmic evolution is still in its infancy, and God is just a baby whose play has just begun. Shiva’s Mantra is not just Om Shanti, it must culminate in Om Anand, ultimate bliss, at all levels of existence. But joy, being a polarized state, its achievement entails sorrow also. So life is buoyant like driftwood. But, the buoyance gives the driftwood its beautiful shape and cut. So, driftwood accepts the downfalls and setbacks. This was the choice I made, said the yogi. If Durga and Kali are both forms of the same entity, which form would you prefer? Once it was understood. I exercised my choice as Shiva "
said the yogi.
"The state of void is Bhadrakali, the dark sky without stars. It was necessary to begin from this state, to know it, like a baby trapped in the mother’s womb. I decided to give cosmic deliverance. I preferred colours, said the yogi softly, spectrum, reflection, life and consequently all that it has entailed."
