IT IS THE LIVING GOD THAT SPEAKS ... 2
Preaching without power to back up the word leads to the propagation of weakness and not strength. It is realisation that runs through the being of the audience, it is the fire of personality that sets aflame the citadels of ignorance and reduces to ashes the ramparts of resistance to the core truth that shines as the essence of existence in all.
Speak with fire if you will, else, do not speak at all. This surface humility, this masked weakness, this apology in the name of truth, all these are most unbecoming in speakers who have taken the dais to address the uninitiated, the innocent mass of humanity into the intricacies of the Divine. Either have the fire within and spread the light of truth or sit in quiet meditation to accumulate the power before you set forth in the world at large to ignite it with the fire of the soul. But do not for heaven's sake spread this debility of spirit that apologises at every step in the name of divinity. Be free and set others free. If you cannot, then step aside and let God speak in the fullness of time. Do not spoil the show thus.
Let a conflagration be, a fire that consumes all save the One within. Let the delirious dance of delusion end in the sameness of realisation, in samadhi where all ends meet.
