40. Maya the Showman
Maya the Master-Illusionist who produces seemingly existent
worlds out of Nothing, will perform its master trick of making
everything including my health, energy, words and promises
apparently go against me; and my lovers' faith and trust in me will
be tested to their full extent. But Maya is powerless to go against
my Work—for Maya itself is the means by which I bring about the
results of my Work.
Being the instrument for the fulfillment of my Work, Maya, in fact,
actually does its utmost to bring about the utmost results of this
Work. Maya is the infinite shadow of God's infinity, and so, having
no existence except in non-existence, must naturally give way to
the one and only Reality which is God. And then God manifests in
His Glory.
When the sun appears over the horizon the shadow projected by
an object is much bigger than the object, but when the sun is
directly overhead the shadow is under the feet as it were of the
object.
In my present phase of helplessness and humiliation, the Sun of
Truth's rays appear faint and feeble and the Shadow of Maya
large. But when that Sun will be at its zenith the Shadow that was
cast ahead of Man, and which dominated his vision and thought
will disappear. This will be the victory over Maya when ignorance
will be effaced in the glory of God's manifestation through me.
Keep your faces turned towards the Sun and your shadow of individualized Maya will lie behind you and, though still
existent, will have no power over you. But if you turn your backs to
the Sun your shadows will be before you and you will be following
them. Although of yourselves you cannot get rid of your shadows,
if you turn your backs on them and keep facing the Sun, at the
time of his full ascendance and glory your shadows will disappear
forever.
