Ocean of life - in which we are immersed
Deep-sea divers descending to work on the ocean floor need enough oxygen to be able to remain underwater for long periods and, to be safe, they are connected to friends above who keep them supplied with air and who are also ready to pull them out at the first sign of danger. Divers cannot work unless these conditions are met. Just like deep-sea divers, we, too, are immersed in an ocean, an ocean called the world. This ocean is full of reefs and monsters who sometimes want to devour us. In order to withstand this, we must have a supply of oxygen and install tubes through which the air can reach us. In other words, we must have a means by which to establish and maintain constant contact with the divine world. To establish this link, we need to meditate and pray, because these practices create air passages and safety lines. Those who say, ‘I’m tired of praying and meditating, it’s always the same old thing; a change will do me good’ are the very people who end up lost in the ocean of life.*
