Swan Soul
You can be a swan soul like Swami Ji says and not eat any dirt. You can live like a contented soul (an-nafs al-mutma’inna) - you do not have to be always troubled. I was so deep in the divine presence I could not even think of what gets you thrown out. You can grind down the mind if it got lost in desires. Bullhe shah says “this transitory world is a quarrelsome altercation ... get along by keeping silent .. Truth makes things flourish anew”. You can reach the fourth stage if you just meditate properly. I made my relationship to Satguru and the one true shabd a mighty fortress, now only gold is bound to be my harvest. A pleasant arrival in heaven can be my only rival. You can just remember the words. The principal trick can be just to sit in the quiet. About your Life if you only gave a hoot then you could reach La Hoot. You could be like Bahu and Be Bahu. You can just reach enlightenment as an alternative to worldly pleasures. You can go into lockdown just in your forehead. You can become a minimalist and get rid of your things. You do not have to stumble around in the dark if you sit at your post correctly. O God I pray that you grant me whatever is best for me. I do not know what is best for me so please just grant me what is best for me, just hold back on the suffering and disgrace please and please give me some happiness as well!
