Sweet Holy Tears.

The tears that the soul sheds are holy, are sweet; they come bidden by the Divine and are blessed by His presence. They are like a dew from heaven. for they are pure they are spontaneous, welling out of a heart of innocent freedom. the feeling is infinitely impersonal, completely egoless; there is only an intense movement of self giving, total simple self giving. Tears are the natural expression in one who needs help, who has the complete surrender and simplicity of a child, the abdication of all vanity. such tears are beautiful in their nature and beneficent in character. they are therefore like dew drops that belong to heaven as it were and come from there with a sovereign healing virtue. such tears are not idle tears but are instinct with a power, an effective energy which brings you relief ease and peace. it is not only pure but purifying, this feeling made of quiet intensity and aspiration and surrender; it is unmixed free from any demand or need of reward or return; it is so impersonal that the aspiration is, so to say even independent of the object for which it exists. Indeed the Divine only can be such a one, who can respond fully to the intensity and ardent sincerity of your approach, you come holding your tearful soul as a complete self-offering, you do not know what tremendous response you call forth, the blessing divine you bring down in and around you.

The feast is that of transformation, the Divine Life on earth. Man is not capable of it, cannot attain it by his own effort or personal worth. It is the Divine who is to bring it down Himself. he is to manifest himself and establish his own life here below. then it will be possible for the human creature to open to the urgency of the new beauty and offer his surrender. one must leave behind all the lower ranges of ignorance, the entire domain of human consciousness, come out of the imperfections man is made of, then only will he put on the divine nature as his own body and substance.
