Look beyond the veil
The whole of this creation and all its
activities are nothing else than God. It is God who evolves Himself by Himself
and it is He who sustains Himself by Himself. Through His own Energy, Yogamaya,
He Himself becomes everything.
He is never disunited from you. Disunion
being out of the question, the truth is that it is God who is carrying on His
sport in your form. Your gaze is fixed on the unreal things of the world; that
is why you feel as if you were disunited from God.
Though permeating all and being every thing,
God is distinct from all-transcends all. All the three states of the universe,
referred to above, are assumed in God, or rather it is God Himself who, having
assumed all forms, permeates all and has taken all these states upon Himself.
God can never be disunited from you nor can you be disunited from God; for you
nor can you be disunited from God; for you are not disunited from Him. But this
can be realized by you are not disunited from Him. But this can be realized by
you only when see God pervading all and perceive everything in God.
There are a variety of vessels made of clay,
a variety of ornaments made of gold and toys, bearing various names and forms,
made of sugar. But are all those vessels of clay anything other than clay? Are
all those gold ornaments anything apart from gold? And are those playthings of
sugar anything but sugar, which is full of sweetness through and through? Just
as all these things are substantially the same as clay, gold or sugar, though
exhibiting an infinite variety of names and forms, even so this world consisting
of various names and forms is essentially God Himself. There is, of course,
this much of difference that whereas the makers of these thing, viz., the
potter, the goldsmith and confectioner are distinct from one another and are
other than the articles themselves—to use the terminology of logic, while they
are the efficient cause and He alone the material cause; it is He who has made
everything and it is He again has become everything and it is He again who has
become everything.
Until you fix your gaze on the fundamental
reality and so long as you continue to regard the external names and forms as
real, the reality will elude your grasp, even though you it before your eyes,
in your very hands. You will go on searching for it. Instead of looking for the
substance, recognize it. So long as you fail to recognize it, you will ever
continue to wander in the dreadful forest of transmigration and will not be
able to realize God—Who is eternally true and always present everywhere—nor to
enjoy His infinite Bliss.
Neither you have to fetch God from somewhere
nor are you required to go anywhere for the sake of God. Detaching yourself
from your name and form, fix your gaze on your real self; and removing the veil
of worldly names and forms, let God look at you. Really speaking, God stands
ever realized.
You talk of God being not realized only so
long as He is not recognized and the veil is not lifted from your eyes. Apart
from God there is nothing which is wakeful in all circumstances, nay, which
manifests itself in your own form. Realize Him, realize Him everywhere at every
moment and attain the goal of your life. In fact, you have already attained it.
Correct the error of refusing to believe that you have attained it.
