DIVINITY WITHIN - DAY 53 - Do not ask to understand, do not want to understand......

For a long time, I just remember the above phrase and thought that on the path to spirituality, we are supposed to be meek and humble and enlightenment will happen sooner or later. And I was told sooo many times that I asked too many questions and wanting to understand most things is not possible because "the mystery of God cannot be explained". 

BS...deep within, I know that if there is going to be enlightenment, if there will be a realization someday, somehow it will be because my questions  were answered and I finally understood.  And with understanding comes WISDOM.

And so I asked, and kept on asking.  I want to understand.  So I kept on digging,  and searching and researching and reading and  searching some more.

So, today I am writing about this and thought that the above phrase must be a part of a paragraph and if I can find it, the context will be totally different or not... but at least I will get an answer.  And my google came up with the following:

"You must have not only freedom from fear, but freedom from hope and expectation. Trust in My Wisdom. I do not make mistakes. Love My uncertainty, for it is not a mistake. It is My intent and Will. Remember nothing happens without My Will. Be still. Do not ask to understand. Do not want to understand. Relinquish the imperative that demands understanding."
- Bhagavan Baba, Sanathana Sarathi, August, 1984
