Serious Errors in Affirmations and Prayers

In this text I will try to keep collecting, on an ongoing basis, the mistakes I notice being made by people who pray and write affirmations. These mistakes may be unconsciously repeated “from grandfather to great-grandfather” and, continually practiced as so-called “tradition,” they reinforce the consequences of those errors.

1.

God is the one and only God and has no competition. Praying to Mary, saints, Gurus, or Eastern gods causes a channel to open from the level of the human head / the seventh chakra / leading to the person to whom the prayer is directed. We are not meant to possess any side channels, any crooked channels, any “other gods.”

2. “God and I are one.” Fragment of a discussion from CUD.

This affirmation does not tell the truth. I, Sławek, am the consciousness of my Soul, of which only a part—delegated to this one present incarnation—administers the material body created by God. God also created my immortal Soul.

Therefore neither I, Sławek, nor my Soul are God, and we will not become God. It is not my aim, as Sławek, to attain unity / achieve fusion / with God, because that is not possible. My Soul is and will always remain a companion to God in His actions. As a companion, it cannot therefore become the same as God—God Himself, the Almighty.

It is possible for my goals, my Soul’s goals, and God’s goals to be achieved together. This does not happen because I have pretty eyes, but because my goals of action are in accordance with God’s goals of action—more precisely, with that part of God’s goals and tasks which God assigned to me and my Soul. I carry out His plan and fulfill His will. This is a unity of shared goals and desires. God made use of me and my Soul as He wished, and both of us willingly carried out His plan.

Several people known to me are able to carry on a conversation with God, or even a discussion consisting of an exchange of sentences.

Such conversations / exchanges of words / bring measurable material effects. Both the human being and God take part in the conversation. They always constitute two separate consciousnesses.

Therefore, for example, Stefan and his Soul will never be one with God; rather, together with God, they will through their own work become co-creators of positive actions. Unity with God—this speculative kind—means in the minds of many that they will become gods or God, and that already belongs to the sphere of Indian religion, where gods are certainly plentiful.

An enlightened person and God are actually no different (the same consciousness, based on the same source). Unity with God, even the statement that one is God (although many people get confused), does not have to mean that we become a deity for someone, an avatar, or that we claim to be a deity.

Being unenlightened, there is a division between human consciousness (limited) and divine consciousness (unlimited); with enlightenment this division disappears. Because if I express love, wisdom, and power, the same as God expresses, and nothing apart from that, then what division is there between us? God manifests perfection and I manifest perfection; that is what my whole existence consists in, so I exist in the same way as God (of course I am speaking about being enlightened; I am not enlightened).

When I read you, I get the impression that you are plugged into some deity.

2009-05-15 14:35 Sławomir Majda (m)
Witek. When you no longer differ from God in anything, you will become a god, and the place of gods is either the nearest madhouse, or some astral plane, or India. Most start at point 3 and end at point 1. If you affirm to yourself, “I, Witek, am God, but I, Witek, think that I am not God,” then Witek, you have quite a twisted mind.

If you already know now what will disappear for you after enlightenment, divine Witek, then surely you also know what you will do after enlightenment. So write it all out for us.

“Because if I express love, wisdom, and power, the same that God expresses, and nothing apart from that, then what division is there between us?” The division is that God’s goals will never be yours. You want food, money, maybe holidays in Turkey. Sex may also be good for you. Yet God’s goal will always be different from yours. Your goal may be to care for the woman with whom you will have sex and for your children. But, Witek, are you supposed to care for the soul of your woman, your mommy, my Soul, or is that the task of God who once created all our souls?

So are you God, or is your goal to care for galaxies, for every soul in the world?

It is certainly worth meditating more
And not on the minds of those people who talk with God

2009-05-15 14:44 Witek (m)

Sławomir Majda
My main goal is to express God’s love, wisdom, power, etc. I pursue other goals only if they do not contradict that. I also know, at least partly, what disappearance is necessary for enlightenment.

“But, Witek, are you supposed to care for the soul of your woman, your mommy, my Soul, or is that the task of God?
So are you God, or is your goal to care for galaxies, for every soul in the world?”

You have some strange ideas about God that smell of contact with a master from the white astral.

P.S. You are putting tremendous pressure on the third eye.

2009-05-15 15:34 Leszek (m)

Sławomir Majda
What is the difference between a human being and God?
Sri Maharaji Kripaluji answered that question brilliantly:
– I have been enlightened since 1999.
(FOR THE LESS OBSERVANT: GOD HAS BEEN ENLIGHTENED SINCE always.)

Sławek, after your recent posts I have the impression that you are becoming more and more entangled in the astral and in confusion of terminology. And that definitely distinguishes you from God, as well as from Witek, Mariusz, Timmy, and me.

Sławomir Majda
A concrete accusation was made here about my astral entanglement, so it is fitting that I respond.

The fruits of realization are its proof, not unconfirmed revelations.

Leszek. When I came to your RSR classes, I had everything blocked—both chakras and auras. We both know this well. After 3 years of using regression, it ceased to be the right therapy for me. It no longer worked, and nothing has changed that to this day. I recommend it to others.

I use only my own prayers—in them I surrender everything to God and nothing more. What results do I have from that? Can one live safely by praying only to God? Can one have full faith in His care and protection? I do. And I have no other choice. No one will help me, Sławek, the way God does, and this is visible in my energies, in their purity, in the size of my open heart chakra.

Within 3 days of my prayer, someone’s black cancerous spots disappeared from the skin. Without bioenergy therapy, chemo, or medicines. I stopped several departing souls, including my father dying in the hospital. For 2 years I have had an open heart and rebuilt angelic wings.

True or false?

Leszek, you call your own Soul the subconscious and claim that you do so in order not to confuse people. As a man you hold to feminine polarity and claim that it is essential in your development. You have an astral retinue in which you have kept some spirit, that is a dead deceased person, claiming that he is indispensable to your development.

Leszek, I surrendered my armies to God, whereas you……

We differ in that my soul surrenders everything to God, while yours does not even allow itself to be called a soul because then you would force it into transformation and, consequently, enlightenment—permanent exit from matter. Exit, because if it descended here once for the first time, then one day it must finally leave.

For years you have dealt with the development of the SOUL /spiritual development/.
You run a school for SOUL /spiritual/ development.
And you call your own soul the subconscious.

Leszek, it was you who told me that I am a blue angel. Then, over the course of 3 years of work and prayer, I rebuilt full wings for my soul. They are no longer blue now but golden.

True or false?

And what did you do with your wings in that same time? What did you manage to achieve with them?
Nothing.

What they were like, they still are, and they will probably remain that way because your soul has no will to rebuild them.

In the next incarnation, the position of engineer awaits you because your soul is already bored with what it is doing now.

All of us humans differ, and all our souls differ, and that is all right. What astonishes me, however, is that so many want to take another drag of Cyclone B in the gas chambers.

If my understanding of God is mistaken or testifies to astral attachment, there is a simple verification—a look into the heart. You see my heart and can describe it publicly here.

Further, if I am possessed, then I ought to write about spirits, praise saints, bow to living gods—but that is not happening. I have no will to write such nonsense, and I do not write it. I do not waste time on idolatry, on worshipping the Source.

There is another verification—rational. Let us assume that my concept presented in the earlier condemned posts is mistaken, that is, according to you gentlemen, when I say, “The enlightenment of the Soul is not the unification—the merging of my Soul into one with God—but the acceptance of His energies, His goals, and His will while preserving my separate identity, the identity of my Soul, and of every other Soul. The Soul retains full awareness of separateness and an unshakable will to continue carrying out God’s plan, or else experiences rebellion against Him.”

The enlightenment of the Soul that happened to both Jesus and Buddha means, according to your gentlemen’s ideas, complete union with God. If I understand correctly, when both Witek and Leszek become one with God, they will become God. Therefore, according to this line of thinking, the Catholic church rightly uses the prayer formula “In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.” After all, Jesus is already one with God.

After your enlightenment, gentlemen, which may happen in the future, that formula may with a clear conscience be changed to “In the name of the Father, in the name of Leszek, Witek, and the Holy Spirit.” Do I see correctly what interests you, what you are aiming at in your next incarnations?

Leszek, you see Jesus and accepted his protection in the form of an energy net around you. You see Jesus’s energies and know that he is a separate being, different from God. Despite his enlightenment, Jesus, and also Buddha, retained their identity and separateness. After all, not only Leszek contacts Jesus as an individual being /soul/.

Where the error lies and in whose reasoning, I did not learn from your posts. You merely hit me with the accusation of possession. I know that you all understand one another very well here, but not one concrete argument came from your side.

Leszek, you even know people in Poland with the gift of materialization similar to the materialization power once possessed by Sathya Sai Baba. I know them too and had the good fortune to work with such people for a long time. A by-product of that work is my website with Prayers.

Has any of you had the opportunity to stand inside the open huge heart chakra of another human being?
I have. When I spread my arms, only my hands went beyond the circle of golden light that was then radiating from that person’s heart. The higher chakras were even larger and more expansive. Imagine that one can have such a heart / and even larger / and pray from the heart to God. That is already possible in Poland.

We keep working at full strength and the prayers go upward, while down to us come concrete answers to the questions asked and concrete material events. All this happens here and now. Concrete answers come, such as stopping someone who is dying, such as freeing the sick from cancer, etc.

Why then, gentlemen, do you make the groundless accusation of possession against me when you do not use insight or clairvoyance, when you have not asked God?

Since Verova’s attack last year, many times supposedly something somewhere has attached itself to me. Once an acquaintance announced Armageddon / the end of the world / for me—that was how endangered I supposedly was according to her. I surrendered those revelations to God and somehow I am still alive today, free from fixations.

When someone does not believe that it is possible to come out of cancer through prayer directed to God, then they turn to astral Reiki, chemistry, and the like. I surrender all that not to the Source worshipped at CUD or to other astral realms—I surrender it to God and to Him alone, and He answers me in a way understandable to me. I do not contact Mary, archangels, etc.—they are of no use to me whatsoever.

An error in affirmations: “let it happen, …. let me recover, let me become rich…” etc. The idea is entirely correct. The prayer, however, does not specify by whose effort the transformation of the existing state of things is to occur. It does not define from where the energy for transformation is to be taken, nor who is to cause the sick person to recover. The one praying may be expecting support from archangels, ordinary angels, Belial’s group, Reiki owners, astral gods, living earthly gods, or finally from Mary, etc.

It is better to turn directly to God, an appeal to Love, for example: “please, let divine Love bring about in me and my soul a change consisting in…”

The affirmation “let it happen” also has magical roots. It expresses a lack of faith in God and a need to seek support everywhere outside Him.

Witek. You are wearing Buddhist robes from many sects and lands. When you surrender them to God, perhaps you will let go of the Buddhist views of the soul. In Tibet there are many people with an open heart like yours, only they continue to incarnate just as your soul now does in Poland. The personality, as you dream of it, cannot dissolve into nothingness because we are not living in acids. The personality, that is the separated part of the soul, can (and ultimately must) together with the soul become united in expressing divine energies, in carrying out God’s plan. It is meant to be one voice, mine and the soul’s; one shared thought of soul and personality—a unanimous striving—and you still have no desire for such actions for a long time, since your soul does not interest you at all.

After all, you keep writing that the matters of the soul, wings, and such are nonsense.

2009-09-09 15:43 Witek (m)

S.M.
The fact that when someone says that he “is God” (in the sense of being one with God), you associate it with avatars and astral gods, says something about you, not about what someone meant. Part of human nature is divine nature (unity with God), and the point is not for the personality to become God, but for the personality to dissolve, disintegrate, in favor of the divine nature (unity with God).

Although you will find few people here praying to your god sitting in the astral.

2009-09-09 08:14 Sławomir Majda (m)

The author wrote:

“Because you do not fill yourself with God. In reality you are God and as God you fill that something which only thinks it is a separate being,
I become aware that in reality I am God.”

These are the convictions of a man whose soul once incarnated as a living god or temporarily functioned as an astral god.

God the Creator already exists; one can pray to Him and obtain His divine support. Most of the commentators remember (their souls remember) that they once had worshippers who prayed to them, and there is a tendency to recreate those relationships again.

If everyone were to become God, the creator of our souls, then what would souls be for? Who is to become that God—the personality of Marek Mazurkiewicz, Leszek, or his soul?
What will be the relations between the god that Marek or Leszek will become and God, the creator of all our souls? None of the commentators wrote that.

2009-09-05 13:24 Sławek (m)

I too am myself, which does not change the fact that there is the Power of God and Goddess in me (at least a drop of those powers ); it just recently reached me when I began to seek the essence standing behind those words, what they are really about… and it enlightened me that the essence of those words is Omnipotence/Omniscience, which they point to. God/Goddess is an Omnipotent and Omniscient Being, and that implies that only the Whole possesses those attributes. O Omnipotence and Omniscience, protect me from my stupidity.

2009-09-05 11:12 Olga Paulina (k)

I am myself 😉
Self-awareness says that I am God, like everyone else; everything has the same frame on which other junk is hung in this “journey.” Some time ago I was looking for divinity within myself and became frustrated that I could not locate it, and then I heard that in looking for that divinity somewhere deep within myself I had overlooked something fundamental, namely that my whole self is God, every cell of my body is built in His likeness, though what it radiates and can radiate is another matter. I write “in His likeness,” yet we are all one creator.

Those who have high awareness of their body and contact with it will transform it into a “living God,” will break the cord of reincarnation, forgetfulness, build within themselves the kingdom of God, through conversion of the body, which thanks to high vibrations and transformation they will be able to preserve for a very long time; perhaps it will lie only in an act of free will, how long

2009-09-04 23:16 Mikołaj (m)

Or maybe like this:
God manifests through my pure perfect self, through everything I create with a pure heart,
He radiates in me and through me pure joy, love, peace, harmony, and silence. :))
I agree to this and accept it… I surrender… I am

A very nice article, Marko

2009-09-04 22:13 Marek M (m)

I am glad, Felicite
So it was worth writing this article. When I was writing it, I felt pressures as if from outside telling me it was not worth writing, that those who need to know already know, and others would only be harmed by it. As if someone cared that the awareness of unity with God be delayed as long as possible. Maybe these were inner pressures, or maybe not…

2009-09-04 21:09 Felicite (k)

Marek,
great article! You wrote about what has been “playing” in my soul for a long time.
In meditation it comes to me from time to time that I am God. And only then do I feel that everything falls into one whole, that EVERYTHING makes sense.
I sign under your article with both hands.

2009-09-04 11:16 Marek M (m)

Yes, this has to be emphasized. “I am God” means concentration on Divinity, transferring one’s sense of identity onto God. It does not mean identifying delusions with Divinity.

2009-09-04 07:53 Leszek (m)

Yes, you are God. And we are all Gods.
It is a potential possibility, because after all it so rarely happens to us (if ever) that we manifest divinity.
So you manifest either as a non-divine being, or as a being who sometimes has flashes of divinity.
Hindus say “you are what you eat.” People think of themselves, “I am trash, I am a bundle of nerves, I am messed up,” etc. If in such a state of self-awareness they began saying that they are God, it would be terrible. Terrible for them and for those who would hear it. It would be unbelievable. And yet the truth is that each of them is God. POTENTIALLY God. However, they manifest DELUSIONS about themselves, not their divinity.
Because in order to be able to say “I am God,” one must first have awareness of divinity within oneself. Fill oneself with divine energies, attune to them, and then feel unity with God. And then one can say about oneself I AM GOD. Earlier one can meditate on unity with God, on liberation from the illusion of separation, and discharge the illusion of separation. But thinking or saying of oneself “I am God” without proper self-awareness is deceiving oneself.

Nice comment from Bogdan 0.
I would add that god is only half the quality of my Nature, the male, free, active, decisively-creative, creating Part, my little yang, part of greater YANG. The other half is goddess, my little yin, part of greater YIN—the accepting and receiving Part, taking form, surrendering and manifesting the shape/idea/thought/imagination of my masculine YANG which thus impregnates and fills it.

I would also add that I am one with the Wholeness of Life which is Cosmic Omnipresent Consciousness, whose YANG and YIN, God and Goddess joined in an eternal ecstatic relationship of Love and Sexual Desire of two Ideal, only existing and fitting halves, are a manifestation, even if I do not yet fully experience my Wholeness and according to my Will, because I have not yet purified my mind and senses so that they may fully open / be opening, so that I may feel and experience the Truth of Unity. Thus my full I, my true and full identity, is Cosmic Consciousness; my little self is of the same nature in every respect apart from size/power as the full I, it is Its/His part; when my little self united with the Big Self, I experienced the Fullness and Consciousness of the Big Self as my own.

2009-08-31 23:56 Marek M (m)

Bogdan
In the article I happen to use this understanding of God:
“God is the most pleasant thing you can experience.”
He is not a severe judge, nor an astral image, nor a name, nor a human being.

God does not fall and does not rise. The belief that God learns something through falls and rises can only lead to cyclical falls and rises.

2009-08-31 21:26 Bogdan 0 (m)

yes yes yes I am God
but:
what does the word God mean?
for some it is some severe judge.
for others it is some astral image.
or maybe a name, or maybe it means being a creator?
God = creator = maker = parent, businessman, entrepreneur, politician…
So everything connected with power, responsibility, and the possibility of deciding, of creating the future.
Being God is being a conscious being taking responsibility for one’s future; it is also a continuous process of becoming 100% perfect and allowing oneself to experience falls and rises which teach on one’s own skin how to be God.
God = human being

It may be an error to affirm: “Change my life, God.” Once I had to sit over the interpretation of whether this meant: “change, God, the experiences in my present life or in my next incarnation.” Because of such ambiguities, a better affirmation is:

“Change, God, my experiences in this life into …”
“Change, God, my financial experiences in this life into …”
“Change, God, the experiences that my soul chose in this life for this present incarnation into …”
“Change, God, the marital and sexual experiences that I experience in this life into …”

I myself broke into a sweat when information came to me that my life would change when I manifested the abundance that God has for me and my soul. It did not follow from the context that I, Sławek, was to become a person living in abundance. Taught by experience, I know that another possible interpretation is that nothing can be done now, but already the next incarnation of my soul will be rich. What I mean is my own concrete experience.

• s_majda writes:
20/11/2009 at 10:49 (Edit)

The affirmation “I am the source of Eternal Love in the Universe.” I consider this a mistaken assumption. The source of Love is God, and this can be known when God and His Love begin to be lacking in someone’s life. Every energy that we and our souls express is given by God, whether wealth, health, or happiness. Therefore: “God is the source of Eternal Love in the Universe.”

“I can and am able to express God’s Love and my own love through my heart. I give my love to all other beings,” but at least I, Sławek, do not intend to be “the source of Eternal Love in the Universe.”

This affirmation is not unambiguous and does not specify whether it is the one and only source from which others can draw at will and live thanks to it, or whether it is another source competing with God, or perhaps one of many similar ones.

A second similar affirmation:

“Meditation of unity with others can only be performed after becoming aware that ‘I am God.’ I am Him, of course, potentially. Many adepts, however, think that their ego (personality) is God.”

More souls than personalities think of themselves as God, not always in full form and fullness of power, but still as God. For this reason, this affirmation is idolatry and a call toward it. God is God, the soul is the soul, and the personality generated from it for one incarnation is only an avatar—a personality administering the body for a given period of material life. Neither the soul nor the personality will ever be God unless it becomes a living or astral god.

“When choosing an incarnation, people are guided mainly by emotions.” This is an erroneous and harmful thought. People do not incarnate and do not choose their next incarnations. Souls incarnate, and they make those decisions.

Once several of us were talking about God. I mentioned personal experiences connected with God and asked the person leading the classes the following question:

“Of all the experiences and encounters with God that I have lived through, I have too little; I desire more. Please tell me, where can I meet God?” The answer was: “Look for God in the grass, in the rustling of leaves, in the rays of sunlight.”

Already after the first regression session it became clear that we do not seek God and Love in the grass, in the buddhi sphere, but in our own heart through meditation and concrete prayer. Love has a pink color, so from afar it can be seen whether it manifests in someone’s life.

“I allow myself to accept all my karma and its working itself out.” What concerns me is not the absence of karma but the expressed willingness to experience it.

Acceptance of karma is one thing, and asking for its realization is another. It looks like riding rather close to the edge. However, on first reading I did not notice several safety valves in the following sentences.

After Tibet and the bodhisattva, I have the master number of suffering 55, and such affirmations can create confusion for someone in a similar situation. I have no will to experience this or that karma, although my 55 has already burned itself out.

“All my debts toward my parents have already been repaid.” A little risky, that affirmation.

A better one seems to be: “I have entrusted all my debts toward my parents to God, and I am grateful for their complete cancellation.”

Some debts are better canceled by the law of grace than repaid.
To each his own.

Once I had a significant entanglement with a woman and surrendered it to God in prayer. He returned it to her, and after a moment she came to me with explanations. I am not repaying her anything—and she is free from repaying me anything either.

Mirek: And how do you see such Intentions concerning our divinely responsible unlocking of (not) knowing foreign languages that previous avatars of my Soul knew (or did not know), used (or did not use), and not only that

– our divinely responsible unlocking of (not) talents that previous avatars of my Soul had (or did not have), used (or did not use), and not only that

Let’s see what comes of it.

[11:45:06] Sławomir Majda: And what do you need Turkish or Mongolian for?
[11:45:28] Mirek: That is why it is under divine responsibility.
[11:45:45] Mirek: Unless I change it to those which, in God’s opinion, are useful to us.
[11:46:03] Sławomir Majda: It is possible. He cannot wriggle out of this one.
[11:46:26] Mirek: Meaning? How do I correct it, then? Fear pierced me..
[11:46:47] Sławomir Majda: Today is February 22, so there will be the Oscars in Hollywood. A gay man who manifests great talent in playing transvestites is supposed to host it.
[11:47:15] Mirek: So how do I undo it? I didn’t think it through.
[11:47:22] Sławomir Majda: And maybe good God will remind you of such talents that wow.
[11:47:38] Mirek: What am I supposed to do? New Intentions?
[11:47:51] Sławomir Majda: Wait until He reminds you—it is worth knowing what your Soul and being used divine powers for in accordance with those talents. Everyone has them, but hidden because of fear, fright, shame. But what are they?
[11:48:24] Mirek: Good thing God is wiser than we are. So should I not correct those In?
[11:49:05] Sławomir Majda: These will rather be divine questions whether you want to continue developing those former talents of yours or your Soul’s, or for example matrix talents. He will certainly shuffle them together with positive ones. God is probably not a sourpuss.
[11:49:57] Mirek: Ah… I panicked, I broke out in sweat. As if I were about to die. Because I asked online.
[14:04:23] Sławomir Majda: Theoretically it would seem that every talent is something positive, but one can have talent in every field, both good and bad. One can have a talent for drinking, a talent for gutting, a talent for sticky fingers, etc.

“It comes out for me as a pattern of managing without God, in the sense that it came to my mind when I say to God—I would like to free myself from this and that, and with this, God, I will manage by myself—which makes me think of witches, playing god, loneliness, rejecting God’s help, because if I can manage by myself… And here it is not even about directing attention to someone, but rather that I always have to struggle with something on my own, because I am able to, because I can carry it, because I am self-sufficient… But that is not true at all, I am not God and I do not have to pretend to be Him; I can lean on Him, I can receive help from Him.”

– That is exactly what all affirmations are aiming at. Self-sufficiency, apart from God. Sławomir Majda

In July 2019, civilians dispersed in Białystok a march promoting LGBT circles (Lesbians, gays). Before the beating of several underage celebrating persons, the counter-protesters collectively affirmed for themselves, with loud chants, encouragements to have sex especially with male homosexuals. They were shouting vulgar slogans which, in free translation, could be rendered as the sentence equivalent “to have sex with gays.” Similar slogans have been affirmed by stadium fans for 30 years, shouting publicly encouragements to “have sex with the players of the opposing team.” Someone in the press soberly noticed the unfortunate nature of such wording, because “gays, not fans or demonstrators, will do it to gays much better.”

Baroque in Islam in 2024

In February 2024, Sami Yusuf published on his YouTube channel a recording from a Paris concert. In it he presents a piece positively affecting the heart chakra, titled L’Amour Vivant. This is the first Islamic and Middle Eastern blend known to me with influences of European musical baroque. One could say that this version of baroque is beginning, a version that a year ago would not have occurred to anyone. I noticed characteristic influences and references to the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. As if the Master were suggesting proper musical solutions to Sami.

The only discord is the textual layer. I suggest that readers activate the option of translating the lyrics. At the beginning, 3 people in different languages sing about troubles in male-female relationships. One man complains about a harlot. Unfortunately, two female singers complain about the lack of a man by their side. This immediately meets with an embarrassing, sexual response from the male souls of the musicians and the audience, especially those in the front rows. There would not have been those two minutes of disgrace if the lyricists had added the word “God” a few times.

This happened because of the texts of Sufis and mystics such as Rumi, who diligently avoid God in their works. Some do not promote Him even in homeopathic doses. Theoretically, the description of longing in male-female relationships is unambiguously supposed to indicate that the person and his or her Soul longs for the love of God and for God. But that is not the case, and this is confirmed by that two-minute sequence, perfectly visible in the astral.
