A Spiritual Path
Tonight after everything that has happened, I have reaffirmed my greatest intuition that God does, indeed, listen. Please no matter how bad the storm gets; do not leave God. He is always there and listening. Let Him lead for He will find.
- God bless

I know god is there but Doubting is something that i feel is always there. Sounds paradoxical. Im starting to dislike the word Doubt all together.

Whether the word you use is God or Universal Energy is entirely up to you. However, there is little mistaking an underlying current of universal energy existing within every atom of the world. The names are different, but the Creator is the same. Doubt occurs only when perception is narrowed.

i agree with you that whatever name you use that god is the same. But how can i improve my perception if my perception is narrowed.

Hello. I am born and raised Sikh. I want to believe in God. I do paat every night before going to bed. My parents go to gurdwara regularly. I am 28, a doctor, everyone is pushing me into marraige.
When I go to gurdwara the paat, they do, I find depressing. Then i feel guilty for finding it depressing. I feel guilty, I feel like I should be a better person.
I find myself trying to please everyone. My parents, god, myself. Sometimes I feel resentment. But at the same time I cant just cut god out of my life. We have a Sri Guru Granth Sahib at my house, I don’t know life without God. I am never at peace, always depressed, always crying.
Please help me. Occasionaly I get suicidal thoughts.

Well Par, I will do my best here, but as a doctor you must understand that suicidal thoughts are dangerous and should be consulted. However, the thoughts you have expressed are an important signal in your consciousness shifting.
I believe you are at a time in your life where you must stop and think. Stop and contemplate. Stop and listen. Stop and pray. Stop and feel. Your at a point where you can no longer run… run from life. Wherever you go, there you are. You cannot run from your mind which carries your thoughts, so you must accept and surrender to the circumstances presently in front of you – you must embrace them and allow yourself time to recover and cope. Let the emotion out and be one with your state. Do not fear weakness or vulnerability, but instead realize that you must revitalize your life and thought by accepting what is.
Read “When you are alone” on this blog for an idea of what I am saying. Change your perception of God, for God is within you and your body and your outer illusion. You are a master of your reality. Once you tune yourself to nature which is God and you live in harmony – content will follow. The future will be yours, and your marriage will open a new opening if you really what that. When you search within and stop looking without – you will find the answers and a state of peace far beyond compare. Shabad and Bani will speak to your soul and not your ears. You will fall in love with yourself and God will appear before you wherever you stand. You will feel and become His presence.

Thank you so much for the reply.
You are absoulutely right. I know what I should do and what needs to be done. But it is hard. I had already read “When you are alone”. I’ve read it several times. I am trying and will continue to try to find peace with myself, god and others around me. Do you have any suggestions? How I can go about this? When I get negative thoughts what can I do to steer my mind away? Lately I’ve been reciting some shabads that I was taught as a child but to be honest, AS I RECITE THEM I find my mind wandering to negative thoughts, or a to do list for that day, then i feel guilty for not focusing. Its as if I’m reciting paat but my mind is clearly somewhere else. I’m always feeling guilty. I should be doing more, I’m not doing enough. I’m at the point where I’ve lost myself worth, I believe I’m not worthy of God’s love. Its very depressing and taking a toll on me.

Hi. I am at a point of in my life where I’m not sure if I’m worthy of God’s love. I have become so depressed I have convinced myself I am nothing, I’m worthless, and I’m surely not worthy of God’s love. His love is for the good, the happy, the deserving. I’m at an all time low in my life and when I look to God for guidance, I feel I’m not worthy of his guidance. I guess I would just like to know am I worthy of God’s love? I am the point, I wont pray for anyone because I believe I am such a horrible person that my prayer for someone else might end up giving them more harm than good. You may be thinking have I done something to feel this way? Perhaps sinned? I have not killed, commited adultrey, stole, or anything too horrible. Nothing that I can atleast think of to make feel this way.
