Sree Krishna, the Lord of Love
Premananda Bharati, Baba
Krishna (Hindu deity)
The spiritual beauty of these primeval people—the Adams and Eves—shows
itself in their physical forms. Their physical forms, symmetry and
expressions are ideally beautiful; these fashion and shine forth the
spirit of harmony which dwells within them. It may be in truth said of
them that they are made in the Image of God, and the truth of this
statement grows upon us when we remember that they live and feel that
they live in the Essence of Love—live and breathe and have their being
moved spontaneously by the Spirit which is the inmost life and force of
all Existence.
This is living on the Tree of Life and eating the fruit thereof
mentioned metaphorically in the Old Testament. Love, Universal Love,
unmixed, Absolute Love is the only Life. When we lose sight of this
Ideal, this substance of life, we fall. So long as our minds are filled
from within with this Love, this Radiance of God, and we think, move and
act by its influence and promptings, so long do we really live the Life
which is our real heritage from God. The Golden Age people live this
life moved by the Spirit within them, the Spirit-Life that makes life an
ecstasy unto itself. This Life of Joy Absolute is illumined by its own
Light by the aid of which they sec all Nature as through a transparent
glass, they see everything with the ensouled mind's eye— not by the
physical eye—for they live within that ensouled mind and rarely come out
to the surface called the physical plane. When they do, they feel as if
the experiences of that physical plane are, as it were, the experiences
of a dream, while the experiences of the ensouled mind they feel as the
Reality, the only Reality.
