When the Almighty is beyond any experience that we may have in the world, how can we recognise Him in this life? Bhagawan lovingly instructs us today.
A distant star like the Druva nakshatra (Pole Star) can be pointed to someone by reference to some nearby physical object like a tree. Likewise, the Vedas and Scriptures, while not demonstrating the Divine, have helped to indicate the path leading to the realisation of the Divine. The spectacle of a dense forest confers delight. The sight of a tall mountain excites wonder. The torrent in a river makes one rejoice. All these are evidence of the power of the Divine. The stars shine. The planets revolve. The sun blazes forth. The wind blows. All these are signs of the Divine at work. When you see the spark of a fire, you can infer the nature of fire. If you know the nature of a drop of water, you can understand the nature of Ganga. Likewise, if you understand the nature of the atom, you can understand the nature of the entire cosmos. Recognising this truth, the Upanishads declared: "The Divine is subtler than the atom and vaster than the vastest."

On deep enquiry, you will know that you are in God, God is in you and you are God. - BABA
