#WE ARE ONE/ FINDING SPIRIT
Stephen
and Anita had a daughter named Rachael. Rachael was brutally murdered and her
body left and they wrote to Ramdas, who was their teacher and mentor. They said,
HOW CAN WE, AFTER LOSING OUR DAUGHTER, FIND SPIRIT, BE INSPIRED AND HOW CAN WE
FIND GOD IN EVENTS SUCH AS THIS?
And
this is what Ramdas wrote to Stephen and Anita. One of the most beautiful
letters I have ever read. This is what he said,
Dear Stephen and Anita,
Rachael finished her work on earth and left
the stage in a manner that leaves those of us behind with a cry of agony in our
hearts, as the fragile threat of our fate is dealt with so violently. Is anyone
so strong to stay conscious in such teachings as you are receiving? Probably,
very few! And even they would only have a whisper of equal enmity and peace
amidst screaming trumpets of their rage, grief, horror and desolation.
I cannot assuade your pain with any words,
nor should I. For your pain is Rachael’s legacy to you. Not that she or I would
inflict such pain by choice, but there it is and it must burn its purifying way
to completion. For something in you dies when you bear the unbearable, and it
is only in that night of sour that you are prepared to love as God loves. Now
is the time to let your grief find expression, no false strength. Now is the
time to sit quietly and speak to Rachael and thank her for being with you all
this few years and encourage her to move on with whatever her work is, knowing
that you`ll grow in compassion and wisdom from this experience.
In my heart I know that you and she will
meet again and again, and recognize the many ways in which you`ve known each
other and when you meet, you’ll know in a flash what now is not given for you
to know, why this had to be the way it was.
Our rational minds can never understand
what has happened, but our hearts, if we keep them open to God, will find their
own intuitive way.Racheal came through you to do her work on earth which
includes her manner of death. Now, her soul is free and the love that you
shared with her is invulnerable to the winds of changing time and space.
In that deep love, include me.
