Bringing me to the doorstep of the temple, my parents pointed me to God as residing in this place and was to be worshipped in the form and image as depicted and placed in it. Bakthi or devotion towards God arose in our hearts. This was the start of Sariyai. We pour out our problems before them and often fail to thank them for all the pleasantries in life. Coming to the Siddhas, they showed me rituals that I took up personally to bridge our worlds and bring them into our homes and lives. This was the start of Kriyai. They began to lead us on. They asked us to share the piece of cake with others less fortunate. Compassion and love for others began to blossom from within our hearts. With the coming of the guru in physical form, we stepped into Yogam that began to shape our internals, ridding them of the toxic poisons that we had accumulated for years, both in the body and mind. A deep cleansing took place. The junk files and recycle bins were cleared. Stepping into Gnanam after having traveled through the purified Chakras, our being was defragmented and consolidated to create space and emptiness in our hard disk. We were born anew, performing as a new hard disk or Solid State Drive would. We now enter another dimension, not that of a terrestrial in nature, but entering the divine space that is the inner chamber of the temple within, where God resides and was shown to us once upon a time by our parents. We are shown the heart of God that is all merciful, forgiving, full of love, and compassion. We arrive where we started. Looking back then we realize that we never went anywhere. It was all a dream that we have now woken up from.
