The Divine Equation: Solving Life with the Creator.


The Divine Equation: Solving Life with the Creator.


By Kateb Nuri-Alim Shunnar


In the intricate tapestry of life, the role of the Creator in our decision-making is paramount. Removing the divine from our choices and allowing ego and desires to dominate often leads us down a path of greater difficulty and regret. Decisions that seem beneficial or pleasurable at the moment can leave a lingering bitterness, much like the pungent smell of a Durian fruit. It is essential to incorporate the hands of creation when shaping our lives, ensuring that what we build can withstand the changing tides of this world.


All too often, we make significant and minor decisions without turning to meditation and prayer. We rely on our logic and ego, believing we know best. We seek affirmation from those who echo our sentiments, avoiding the wise voices that ask, "Did you pray about this?" or "Have you meditated on this?" Rarely do we hear someone say, "I will pray for you" or "I will enter deep meditation and fasting to seek guidance from the hands of creation." Instead of leaning solely on our understanding, we must humble ourselves and seek divine direction, asking, "Am I making the right decision? Please lay my foundation so my house can stand."


There is profound wisdom in turning to the hands of creation. While we might think we have all the answers and a clear vision of how we want things to unfold, it is vital to include the Creator in our moments of contemplation and decision. A strong connection with the Creator serves as our anchor and protector. When we stray from the divine plan, we often find ourselves caught in cycles of despair and uncertainty, affecting not only ourselves but also those we hold dear.


Including the Creator in our decision-making process, whether big or small, allows us to witness outcomes beyond our imagination. By removing the burdens of hurt, frustration, anger, ego, hate, greed, envy, pettiness, depression, stress, pain, and prejudice, and inviting the hands of creation to guide us, we can experience profound transformations. We must maintain faith, regardless of the situation or circumstance, and trust in the divine timing, which is always perfect.


Consider life as a complex mathematical equation. When solving problems, isolating variables and simplifying expressions can lead to solutions. Similarly, by integrating the Creator into our decisions, we introduce a divine constant that brings balance and clarity. Excluding this constant results in flawed outcomes, much like solving an equation incorrectly.


Drawing an analogy from nature, we can look at the mudfish, a creature that thrives in muddy waters yet instinctively seeks the cleanest path. In our lives, we may find ourselves in murky situations, but by seeking the hands of creation, we navigate toward clarity and purpose.


It is crucial to be discerning about the advice we seek. Aligning ourselves with individuals who lack a connection with the Creator can lead us astray. We should surround ourselves with those who nurture their spiritual bond, especially when faced with important decisions.


Practically speaking, including the Creator in our lives involves regular practices of prayer, meditation, and fasting. When faced with a decision, take time to meditate and seek divine guidance. Pray for clarity and wisdom, and fast to clear the mind and spirit, making space for divine insight. Patience is essential; rushing the Creator's timing can lead to missteps. Trust that the hands of creation will work things out in the best possible way.


The journey of life is filled with challenges and uncertainties, but by keeping our eyes on the divine and incorporating the Creator into every aspect of our lives, we pave the way for a life of purpose and fulfillment. The Creator's plan is always greater than our own, and by trusting in that plan, we find true peace and success.


To make this more tangible, consider the following ways to integrate the Creator into daily life and decisions: Start each day with a moment of gratitude and prayer, setting your intentions and seeking guidance. Before making any significant decision, take time to meditate and reflect, allowing space for divine insight. When faced with challenges, pause to pray for wisdom and strength, rather than reacting impulsively. Surround yourself with a community of spiritually-minded individuals who can offer support and accountability. Practice fasting periodically to cleanse your spirit and focus your mind on divine matters. Lastly, keep a journal of your prayers and meditations, noting how the hands of creation have guided you and worked in your life.


Embrace the divine equation by making room for the Creator in every aspect of your life. Trust that the divine constant, when included in your calculations, will lead you to solutions and paths that are beyond your comprehension. Let go of the need to control every outcome and surrender to the wisdom of the Creator, knowing that you are being guided by a force far greater than yourself.


By nurturing this sacred connection and making it an integral part of your daily routine, you will find that even the most challenging equations of life become solvable. The hands of creation are always at work, ready to lead you to a life of deeper meaning, purpose, and fulfillment. Remember, the divine is not just a part of the equation; the divine is the very essence of the equation itself, the foundation upon which everything else is built.


Have an amazing day 💛 ❤️
