Tablet Of Time

How many worlds do you live in? If you’re unlike me, you’d most probably live in more than one, and that can be quite daunting multitasking between worlds.

If you happen to live in one without any sub-division whatsoever, getting to tasks with the species {and I say without being arrogant!}, can equally be tough! You would, if you believe in a Deity, a God, or stone effigies to be aware of its wrath when humanity hurls its nonsense day after days, night after nights without recoursing to at least a heartbeat of gratitude.

Thou art wise, and Wisdom, which is the Fountain of Life, floweth from Thee; and compared with Thy Wisdom, the knowledge of all mankind is folly. Thou art wise, and didst exist prior to all the most ancient things; and Wisdom was born of Thee. Thou art wise, and hast not learned aught from another, nor acquired Thy Wisdom from anyone else. Thou art wise; and from Thy Wisdom Thou didst cause to emanate a ready Will, an agent and artist as it were, to draw being from out of the Void, as light proceeds from the eye. Thou drawest from the Source of light without an intermediary, and producest everything without a means… The Royal Crown; Zangwill, 1923, 1974

No, seriously have you within the perfected twenty-four hours, been grateful for at least one mesosphere of a good thing that is granted you?

A fault, which humbles a person, is of more use, than a good action that puffs him or her up, Woodrow Wilson

If you haven’t, don’t you think that you should consider being grateful for whatever fortune, and health that are bestowed on you? — Consider all that are granted to you, as experiences as gifts, for you were nothing when you came into the sphere of being, and thereafter will leave as a whisper that is if one has attained to that level of spiritual bounteousness. Irrespective one’s spiritual merit, what some are unmindful of the very existence of its non-apparent selves, how humbled are we in the presence of the One, Alone?

We talk about the Lord as if He’s our slave waiting to be trafficked and sold-off or exchanged, if He doesn’t kowtow to our quotidian nonsensical quandaries… of what we want in a slave, and then be spanked and poked at parties, made fun of in stage plays, and movies perpetually stirring-up dominoes-effects to insult the very minds and hearts of those we seek to entertain, and in regions where the Lord Himself, is being served as the Servant, catering to one’s whimsical fancies.

Whichever way you face the mirror, whom serves you?

And then you insist you have the right to want to be King, or Empress but when your world cracks up, you hurriedly rush off to your churches, synagogues, temples and masjid begging forgiveness, or at least a write-off, of your ungrateful and despicable acts just so you, amongst your brethrens must be saved, because you literally were slightly ticked-off when your minions made fun of your personal Deity?

Surely the One who granted you Life, and the One who presented you the Worlds Know what your heart whispers!

Try to be a little bit less condescending when you can, would you? 2009 is preserved in the Tablet of Time as a record for whatever deeds you may have achieved thus far or overlooked because you simply have no bother or worry to bother over time for everybody else but your heart’s pleasure — for how you behave today and how you treat the genus, this very instance after reading this blog will determine the fate of your ‘future’ paths.

The humble can do great things with uncommon perfection
because they are no longer concerned about their own interests
and their own reputation, and therefore they no longer need
to waste their efforts in defending them. Thomas Merton

Be gentle, and kind to yourself. Remember the reflectives showcased before you, are put in view in your spheres of living for a specific raison d’être, and time. Whichever way you face and look in the mirror, whom do you think serves you?
