G-d as Soul-mate

G-d is our soul mate say the Bauls, the wandering troubadours of India.

It is OK to say G-d is Love. Is it Ok to say G-d is my lover? In Bhakti Yoga, shringara (the erotic sentiment) is the highest form of love! How would you speak to your lover? Let that be your “mantra” or prayer to the Divine.

Jesu said in the Gospel of Thomas “Cleave wood and I AM there. Consider
that the I AM is immanent everywhere in the cosmos.

Having the universe as your lover can also be erotic, when one understands
that sex is simply an energetic exchange. One can exchange energy with
the trees and the stars, which can indeed reach an orgasmic peak as well!

And do remember that the Greek love word of the Christians Gospels is Agape, which is the same word used to translate the very erotic Song of Songs (of Soloman) from the Hebrew.

How healing and liberating it is to treat G-d as your lover - and your lover as a god/goddess.
