Our real life runs parallel and concealed below the surfaces. It is the true life, the life of the soul. There all is seen and welcomed as the Lord’s play to bring us closer to Him and share His delight.
But there is a veil of Ignorance that prevents us from knowing and living our true life. Our being is trapped in a prison of ego-self engaged in a game of reward and punishment, joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, success and failure.
Blows also belong to that domain. The Divine does not give any blow to anyone since to HIM there is no ‘other’. He is simply drawing everything towards Himself which is a state of pure felicity, but the mind gets attached to small comfort zones and feels even Grace as a blow.
The only way to get out of this vicious cycle is to press deeper and deeper towards our soul, to open more and more to the Grace, and live and breathe in Her Light and Love and Peace and Harmony and Bliss.
