What are the truths about the physical body we must acknowledge and keep in mind? Bhagawan lovingly reminds us today.

Human life is ephemeral, like a water bubble. No one knows at what moment this water bubble may burst. People suffer disappointment in life because they consider the body as permanent. So, the Upanishads call upon all, “Arise! Awake! Stop not till the goal is reached.” They urge people to wake up from the slumber of ignorance, visualise the sunrise of wisdom (prajnana), and uphold humanness. Though people today acquire knowledge of the Vedas, undertake spiritual practices, attain scientific knowledge, and make investigations and enquiries, yet they are not able to know who they are. They face so many problems because they do not understand their own reality. One is not merely a human, though one has the body of a human. One’s reality is the Atma, which is enshrined in the body. So, in relation to the body, one is just a human, but from the point of view of the Atma, one is divine. The body is the temple of God. Consider the body as a temple. When can you call the body a temple? You can call it a temple when God is in it. It cannot be a temple without God. So, in this body, God is present in the form of eternal Atma.
