Hi Into Blue !
When your meditation is ripe you don't have to do it. It will pull you into meditation.
When I first met Sri Rajni kumar after some talk he told me the exact time when I started my
spiritual journey with exact month and year.
Some how all our efforts are written somwhere and someone with the knowledge can read it.
Our efforts are to make us more ready for the supreme one. Ways are many. So that he can come or
uncovered. We have a very interesting word for it "Ishwar Labh" - Profit of GOD.
It is a joy to talk to you and share our thoughts as Ramkrishna has said that it is habit of devotees to talk about God.
Thanks
Prabhat
Your life experiences are interesting to us. You are speaking of the Akashic Records here. The future present and past have all been written and sealed by God. Some of the great ones like Sri Rajni can read this. The intersting point is that God can change the play that has been written if he so chooses.
