God Is A Reality

Aum Sairam

God is present everywhere; but we can understand only that part of Him
that manifests before our cognition. Ordinary people will swear that
the earth does not move at all, it is held forth in poetry as a symbol
of stability. But, it has two motions, both unbelievably fast! It
rotates on its own axis at a speed, which exceeds a thousand miles per
hour; even while rotating so, the earth moves round the sun at an
astonishing rate of speed! But, do we notice it while it happens?

God too is a reality, present in us and in every being; but we miss
Him, as we miss the movement of the earth. We have to infer God
thorough proofs and evidences of His providence, His grace, His majesty
and His glory, just as we infer the movements of the earth, the moon
and the stars, by watching the sky, the seasons and the precise
procession of day and night.

We cannot describe God in the vocabulary learnt upon the earth. We have
to experience the bliss of realizing Him as the core of our being. Man
is endowed with a sense of wonder and awe, the sense, which makes him
either a participant, an inquirer into the mystery or a devout adorer.
When he suppresses, ignores, or bypasses this sense of wonder, he gets
involved in the physical world, physical needs and physical pursuits.
He starts worshiping mammon and he strays away from the good, the just
and the beautiful. He barters the chalice of bliss for a mouthful of dust.
