What is the relationship between the one Supreme Being and the many? Bhagawan explains today so we may contemplate this profound truth.

Only the One exists. There is no second. In such a situation, there is nothing to be known. There is no knowledge, knowing or knower (in that state). In comprehending the One, the nature of the many has to be properly understood. Every man has to recognise the Divinity that is present in all human beings. God is one. That One is the Indweller in all beings. Did the Divine fragment Himself in a myriad of ways? The answer is: without fragmenting Himself, the Divine is present in all beings. In his ignorance, man notices only the manifoldness around him. This may be illustrated this way. The sun's image can be seen in an ocean, a river, a lake, a pond or a well. Everywhere the sun appears to be shining. Are there so many different suns? No. The objects reflecting the image of the sun are varied and different from one another. Likewise, names and forms may be different, but in all beings, the same God, without being divided, shines as the Indweller. Thus, although bodies may appear with different names and forms, the Divine in them is one.
