See God



Scientists employ all kinds of instruments and declare that they have not found God anywhere.  But the saints, seeing God with the inner vision, see Him everywhere.  They use the power of Mantra to see God, they see God through the lens of Love.

When some people ask you, "Can you show God?"  You should reply, "You are God; that is why you are able to talk and act." There is nothing in the world other than God!  To know divinity, you should know the sacredness within you.  Keeping salt in your mouth, you can't taste anything that is sweet.  Only when you cast off the salt and wash your mouth, you can experience the taste of the sweet.  Worldly desires are like salt.  Discard them.  Then you can realize Divinity.  You must shed the evil qualities of jealousy, hatred and anger and divest yourself of the ego.  If you rectify your defects and cleanse your heart, you can realize Sathya and Dharma as the basis of your life.  This is the Life Principle and with these you can lead a purposeful life.  Making use of your intelligence as whip and the mind as the yoke, you can drive the chariot of life, with the senses as horses, to the right destination.
