Spiritual Initiation and How to Self-Certify that You are EnlightenedA Poem by AiR - Atman in RaviWhat is the meaning of Spiritual Initiation? It is a start to reach our ultimate destination The guidance of a Guru can take us there faster But for this, we need an Enlightened Master! Initiation is the beginning of our Journey to the Truth It is the way to get to the bottom of the root Why Spiritual Initiation? Why must we go on a Quest? Why must we put our beliefs to test? Because of ignorance, what we were taught in schools We continue to believe and live like fools! It's time to question, 'Who am I?' 'Am I this Body that will just live and die? To Initiate the Journey, we must still the Mind It is our enemy, this Truth, we must find Along with the Ego, it becomes Mind and Ego, ME It tells us, 'We are the Body,' in the mirror that we see It hides the Truth that we are the Divine Soul We need Initiation to reach our Goal! Initiation is a Journey to Self-Realization With the help of the Guru, it is Purification Then, we move forward and there is Illumination Till we arrive at the Truth called Realization But Initiation is just the beginning, what is the end? Enlightenment or Spiritual Awakening, ignorance to transcend Many people are seeking only to be initiated They blindly follow the myth and make life complicated Initiation means to question everything and ask, 'Why?' 'What is my purpose on earth and who am I?' 'What was the reason that I came to earth?' 'What is the purpose of my human birth?' Initiation often needs the help of Meditation When we still the mind, we start Contemplation We reach a state of Consciousness It is Mindfulness, it is Awareness In this state, it is the Intellect that will shine We will Discriminate and Realize that nothing is mine What is this world? It's just a show We are just actors, we come and we go! Until there is Initiation, nothing we know But with the help of a Master, spiritually, we grow We Realize that the Purpose of life is Liberation And after Realization, Divine Unification How do we know, we are on the right path? Are we fooled by rituals in a religious bath? Do we believe in the universal lie? That God is an old man, who lives in the sky? Initiation will take us to the Truth of Realization But for this, we must do Self-Certification Nobody knows if we are Spiritually Awakened But the Guru can guide us to be Enlightened Unless we are honest with the Guru and in him, we trust Self-Certification won't work, so this comes first Obedience to the Guru is a must To give us worldly desires and give up lust Other than the Guru, nobody can know Are we truly Enlightened or we're putting up a show If with the Guru, there is a Divine Connection Then, truthful will be our Self-Certification Otherwise, the Initiation will cause confusion And we may never reach our destination What are the things that we must certify? We must first, find out the truth, 'Who am I?' For this, we must find out, what we are not Escape from the Mind and Ego, that ties us in a knot! When we Realize, these, we are not but we are 'Who are we?' We certify, we cross the bar Self-Certification is about endorsing, we are the Soul But this is the Beginning, not yet the goal The Soul is nothing but the Divine Power, SIP The Supreme Immortal Power, must be certified on our lip When God, we are able, in all, to see Then we can certify, we Realize the Divine energy The Soul is but a Spark Of Unique Life This Certification liberates us from strife But the Soul is nothing, it is God, it is SIP! We must certify and move forward in this trip Now, we are sailing on a Spiritual ship One by one, the Certification saves us from a slip! Ultimately, what must we get in sight? Finally, we have to switch on the inner light Certification is to reach that state of Inner Enlightenment It is transcending pleasure and achievement We will pass by contentment and fulfillment And certify, we are no more slaves of entertainment Spiritual Awakening is Eternal Bliss It is a state of Truth Consciousness It is Divine Love for one and all And this is certified, when the Ego has a fall As long as the Ego stands tall like a wall We can't Certify Enlightenment, we will fall! Therefore, it is important to read this book One-by-one, each Certification, will change the outlook We must be sincere in our Initiation And with honesty, do Self-Certification The process is long, there will be Realization And ultimately, there will be Liberation! Life has a meaning, it has a purpose Without Initiation, it will just be a circus If we just live and then we die If we are not Enlightened, 'Who am I?' The Body will die but we will be reborn We will suffer and this will go on and on Therefore, today, let us start our Initiation Not delay our Journey of Realization For this, we must first get an Enlightened Soul Getting the right Guru achieves half the Goal Then, the Spiritual Journey must go on Nothing must stop us from dusk to dawn Ultimately, at death, happens one of the two things Initiation is the one that Peace and Bliss brings If there is no Spiritual Awakening, there will be reincarnation But Enlightenment is the result of Realization We have time, let us make a choice Let us not delay, let us be wise!
