Poems about God

Poems on God
To speak of God
Is easy
To love God
Is difficult
To surrender to God's Will
Constantly
Is the most difficult task
~
God is God
Because
He dares to believe
That I am another God.
God is God
Because
He dares to transcend
What He eternally is.
~
God was, God is
And God will forever remain
The loving Companion
Of my heart's soaring hopes.
~
God cries.
He cries because I do
not like Him anymore.
God cries.
He cries because my ignorance
has placed me inside my coffin.
~
God the Mother
Hurriedly comes to me
To stop my heart's streaming tears.
God the Father
With great strides comes to me
To increase my soul's smiles.
~
Man asks God
Every day
One question:
"Why is life so hard?"
God answers the question
With His Infinite Compassion-Heart.
Alas!
The acceptance
Of God's Answer-Light
Is not in the very nature
Of man.

Writings about God
God the Creator and God the Creation
" God originated Himself from His own Silence.
God was One, but He wanted to become many. Why? He wanted to divinely enjoy Himself, to enjoy His Game, to enjoy the Truth in finite forms. He felt that if He remained all alone, there would be no joy, no Lila. If we want to play any game, we won't enjoy ourselves alone: we need more players. If we want to play football or soccer, we need players to play on each side. Otherwise there cannot be any game. For His Game, God needed cosmic players. So He created Himself in millions of forms and shapes...."
