CHAPTER EXCERPT

1.4
The Divine Pattern of Creation

The Actual God created for mankind a blissful existence in His eternal Paradise of Heaven. Alas, mankind lost their divine link of Direct-Worship of the Actual God and fell prey to visual-worship – all of which originates from the devil – and entangled themselves into extreme suffering.

  1. Notice! The entire creation
    Stands built in a way – that
    You should not see the Actual God anywhere,
    You should only feel the Actual God everywhere.
    So do not be lured into the belief,
    No matter how tempting it may seem,
    That anything that you can see
    Can ever be the Actual God!
     
  2. And remember this very clearly:
    That only Direct-Worship of the Actual God
    Is My worship and leads to Heaven.
    There is absolutely no other way.
    Whereas, any form of visual-worship
    Is not worship of the Actual God,
    And does not lead to Me.
    This is a divine rule for all creation.
     
  3. Consider a large gathering
    Of diverse and neutral people,
    And display before them a series of pictures
    Of different entities of every kind,
    From prophets, saints and gurus to inanimate objects;
    It would be hard to have them all surrender in unison
    Before any single prophet, saint, guru or entity
    And willingly accept and worship it as their god.
     
  4. You would not find them unanimous in accepting
    Any prophet, saint, guru or entity as God;
    For understand very clearly
    That no human being or visible form can ever be
    The universally common eternal divine entity
    Worthy of worship by all mankind,
    Without any discrimination of any kind
    Since the beginning of mankind’s creation.
     
  5. But if you suggest that those same people
    Join and be united in worship
    Of the Actual God – the Actual Creator
    Who actually created them
    And all creation and all mankind,
    And the entire universe and life that exists –
    You find them in wholehearted agreement
    Without any fear or dispute or hesitation.
     
  6. Understand very clearly,
    That this creation was created,
    And designed and built in a way
    That all mankind should worship,
    Without any difference or discrimination,
    The universally common eternal divine entity:
    The Actual God, the Actual Creator
    Who actually created them and all creation!
     
  7. There can be nothing so divine for worship
    Throughout all creation,
    So as to be able to replace
    The Actual God – the Actual Creator –
    Who actually created all mankind and creation,
    As the universally common eternal divine entity
    For worship by all mankind,
    Ever since their creation.
     
  8. So if you aspire to reach Heaven,
    Then understand very clearly
    That worship of visual forms and entities
    Is strictly forbidden for you.
    If you see anyone teaching
    Worship of visual forms and entities,
    Then be sure without any doubt
    That he is leading you away from the Actual God!
     
  9. A true prophet of the Actual God
    Must show you the way to the Actual God,
    By teaching you Direct-Worship,
    Which is the worship of your Actual Creator.
    In this way, he should guide you
    Along the correct path that would lead you
    Back to My eternal Paradise of Heaven,
    Which was your true eternal home.
     
  10. A true prophet of the Actual God does not need
    Gimmicks, halos, miracles or magic tricks
    To convince you on religion, for
    He is not expected to portray himself as God,
    Or an incarnate or exclusive child of God,
    Nor is he expected to have himself worshipped
    In My name in any way.
    Accordingly, miracles are evil signs of the devil.
     
  11. As you understand already,
    There exist only two types of worship:
    Direct-Worship – which is divine
    And leads to Me, the Actual God;
    And visual-worship – which is irreligious
    And leads to the realm of the devil.
    Accordingly, there stand precisely
    Only two types of enlightenment-seekers:
     
  12. Those seekers who procured enlightenment
    By dedicating all their prayers and sacrifices
    And penance of every type
    Toward Direct-Worship of the Actual God
    Achieved My Direct-Worship enlightenment,
    Which leads to the Paradise of Heaven,
    Ensuring the strength of their following
    In honor of the Actual God.
     
  13. While those seekers who procured enlightenment
    By dedicating all their prayers and sacrifices
    And penance of every type
    Toward visual-worship of any kind,
    Achieved visual-worship enlightenments,
    Which lead to the kingdom of hell,
    Ensuring the strength of their following
    In favor of the devil!
     
  14. The devil controls your world
    And strangles you with his reign,
    Determined to drag you all to hell.
    Since visual-worship religions
    Have had a majority following
    Within your population for so long,
    The evil influence of the devil
    Is very dominant over your world.
     
  15. As the ruler and controller of your world,
    He has exploited your ignorance and gullibility
    To move you in the evil direction he has chosen.
    Thus, you find this world being dragged
    Systematically farther and farther away
    From the Actual God – Who actually created you –
    Toward a society where the divine teachings
    And the existence of God seem rational no more.
     
  16. Respecting My own strict laws of justice,
    I will not intervene in the rule of the devil;
    But as the Direct-Worship following in your world
    Grows stronger and stronger
    My influence over your world will also grow.
    This divine guidance of mine
    Will lead you back to Heaven assuredly,
    While also eliminating all suffering from your world.
     
  17. This world would then start moving
    In the direction of My divine teachings,
    And experience a rapid change of course
    Toward the correct direction of the Actual God,
    Toward righteousness and good conscience,
    And, surely, away from all suffering –
    In the same manner that it had moved
    In the direction opposite to the Actual God.
     
  18. Although I, as the Creator of all creation
    And the supreme authority of the universe,
    Can crush and destroy the devil instantly,
    I would never do so,
    For My strictest laws of justice
    Allow every individual the freedom
    To choose and progress
    In whichever direction they desire:
     
  19. Whether it is a good and righteous direction
    Or a bad and evil one,
    Whether on a path toward Me
    Or one away from Me –
    Without denying them their dues of destiny,
    As measured by My uniform code of justice.
    This includes the devil as well,
    Who has chosen to oppose Me – the Actual God.
     
  20. Having received your dues of destiny on earth
    Measured by My uniform code of justice,
    On your day of judgment
    You will finally meet justice,
    And find your place and appropriate dwelling
    According to the direction that you had chosen,
    Whether the divine direction that leads to Heaven,
    Or an evil direction that leads to the devil in hell.
     
  21. Realize that every individual in your world
    Makes an impact and
    Shapes your society accordingly,
    To the extent of their destiny
    By the role they play.
    The overall image of your society thus
    Stands as the collective sum
    Of the impact of all mankind.
     
  22. As you already know,
    In the pattern of creation for this world,
    Every individual enriches or corrupts,
    And shapes this society accordingly.
    Doctors, pharmacists, farmers, and others,
    Enrich and shape this society positively
    To the extent of their destiny,
    By the constructive role they play;
     
  23. While gamblers and narcotic dealers,
    And purveyors of obscenity, liquor and prostitution,
    All corrupt and shape this society negatively
    To the extent of their destiny,
    By the destructive role they play 
    Of entangling others into these vices,
    And ruining their lives and future
    For illusory material gains.
     
  24. And prophets of My Direct-Worship,
    Who attained My enlightenments
    Through Direct-Worship of the Actual God alone,
    Teach this society the correct mode of worship
    And the divine teachings of Heaven,
    Building the gateways for mankind
    To follow those divine teachings,
    To return to My Paradise of Heaven permanently.
     
  25. Prophets of visual-worship,
    Who attained visual-worship enlightenments
    Through visual-worship of all kinds,
    Demolish the gateways to Heaven for mankind
    By teaching society the worship of false gods,
    And the irreligious teachings that lead to hell
    Where the devil awaits, ready to enslave mankind
    And to inflict even more suffering.
     
  26. I, as your Creator, gave you a conscience
    For judgments in line with divine teachings.
    Every time you were inclined to do wrong,
    A silent inner voice of guidance from Me
    Emanated from your conscience,
    Informing you that you were wrong;
    And punishments were assigned
    To keep you on the path of righteousness.
     
  27. With a conscience in line with the divine teachings,
    You were expected to live a life of morality
    And fulfill your chosen role in this world
    Within the framework of the divine teachings;
    But you were also given a free will and flexibility
    To move, mold and shape yourself
    In whichever direction you chose – 
    Whether a good, righteous direction, or an evil one.
     
  28. Whenever you felt lost in making judgments,
    You could imagine yourself as their beneficiary,
    And would arrive at sound answers!
    And for whatever actions you actually performed –
    Whether in My direction or against –
    You would bear fruit against them
    Without being denied your legitimate dues of destiny
    Measured by My uniform code of justice.
     
  29. The pattern of creation for this world
    That stands to be divine,
    Is that all mankind should worship
    The Actual God – their very Creator alone;
    As a consequence of which
    I – the Actual God – would be guiding your world.
    And under My divine influence,
    The world would move by My divine laws.
     
  30. All mankind would be moving thus
    By My righteous divine laws and teachings,
    Resulting in the permanent endurance
    Of family values, virtue, honesty and rectitude,
    Good conscience, kindness and compassion,
    Love, affection, happiness, freedom and justice –
    And in the eternal preservation of your conscience
    In pure righteousness, as I created you to be!
     
  31. And under the guidance of the Actual God,
    Research and development of technologies
    Would take place, progressing
    By the growth and study of natural products – 
    Eternally preserving that natural heritage
    Which had an answer for mankind’s every need –
    Rather than destroying them and
    Replacing them with synthetics!
     
  32. Under the increasing influence of the Actual God,
    Consequent to a growing Direct-Worship following,
    There would be a progressive decline in painful signs –
    Of suffering, misery, cruelty and the devilish vices
    Of gambling, obscenity, alcohol and narcotics,
    Of falsehood, theft, crime and corruption –
    All of which result from violation of My divine teachings
    Under the rule of visual-worship!
