I wouldn\u2019t recommend it, at least if you want to avoid spending eternity in a dog house. I also wouldn\u2019t recommend looking at Krishna\u2019s <i>lilas<\/i> as if they are something that pertains to you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\"><i>Lila<\/i> is not a form of <i>sadhana<\/i>. A relationship with God is not something you visualise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">Biljana read the previous article, and smilingly commented that watching girls bathe has apparently always been a thing. I said \u201cIt\u2019s a time-honoured pastime of the Gods. Half of them were always watching the girls bathe. The other half? They were the girls.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">If you\u2019re not a God, don\u2019t try to act as if you are, because that is known as <i>hubris<\/i>, and the Gods are famous for not liking it. Not liking it, as in \u201ccast you in the lake of fire for all eternity\u201d not liking it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">You don\u2019t get to be Krishna\u2019s wife because you like the idea. You get there by wanting to be dust under his feet, or a flower in his garden, or his wife\u2019s maid-servant for a zillion years. It\u2019s all about humility, sacrifice, adoration and growth in Divine qualities. Of course every satanist out there would like to sit on the heavenly throne and fuck God. That\u2019s why they are sentenced to the pit of hell where they are sodomized by others like them, only stronger.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">A relationship with God is something that is determined by God. If you have inappropriate, disrespectful thoughts, you never get to find yourself in God\u2019s presence, you remain in your darkness, and your destiny is despair. If you are very honest, good and respectful, God will give you appropriate guidance and teach you. If you are a very good student, you will become an enlightened being. If you are very good at wisdom, sacrifice, love and kindness, and your <i>samyama<\/i> on God\u2019s aspects is very successful, you might yourself become a Divine being, a person of God. At that point, there will already be enlightened or Divine beings who will be familiar with you and develop a relationship of respect and love with you. That\u2019s the point where you figure out <i>lila<\/i>, rather than <i>sadhana<\/i>, and have varied free, unconditioned, God-based interactions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">My relationship with my girl isn\u2019t something you can imitate, and it would be absolute blasphemy to even have such ideas. For women, imagining being God\u2019s wife is a similar blasphemy, unless of course they already <i>are<\/i> God\u2019s wife, in which case God will tell you himself. The correct attitude would be \u201clet me be pure and deserving enough to be the water used by the least of God\u2019s wives\u2019 maid-servants to wash her feet first, and then maybe I will become worthy to be that handmaiden\u2019s servant\u201d. Lack of humility in beginners is something that prevents you from even starting properly on a spiritual path, and it can be your downfall regardless of how far you ascended. Also, the greatest way to become close to God is not by imagining a relationship with God, it\u2019s by developing a state of <i>metta<\/i> and enveloping other beings with it. Be loving-kindness to others, be the truth, the reality, the source of happiness to others, and the relationship with God will take care of itself. I said imitation is sometimes useful because that\u2019s how you can learn, but this is one of those cases where imitation is a very, very bad thing. You\u2019re not me. I\u2019m not a \u201cphase\u201d in spiritual growth that you can reach. I was Eternity before time was an idea. The way Goddess is with me is because of who I am and who we are to each other, it\u2019s not a thing to be emulated by others unless you want to be on a shit list that\u2019s very hard for one to remove themselves from. This is not some stupid fantasy where you can imagine yourself as this or that. Gods are not some kind of unconscious aspects of yourself that serve the purpose of your spiritual growth. They are actual persons, like you, only if you attained the greatest and highest things and evolved to the highest mode of being. They are to be treated with respect of the highest order, because if you don\u2019t, you might find out what Goddess has under that tiny dress and then you die the eternal death, as your soul dissolves in the presence of the naked, unshielded presence of God, That which existed before Light was made, That which made Arjuna beg Krishna to hide it because he could not bear it. Tread lightly where Angels kneel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just know there\u2019s going to be some person who\u2019s going to read the things I\u2019m writing about God and think, \u201coh, I might visualise God as my wife, that sounds good\u201d.
