When we call God in prayer, where does He come from? Bhagawan, Our Loving Lord, clarifies for us today.

You are unable to see or catch air that is all around you. But, can you say there is no air merely because you cannot see it or you cannot catch it? There is air. Similarly, you cannot deny the existence of chaitanya (consciousness) merely because you are unable to see it and experience it. Consciousness does exist. The same is called 'being'. The 'being' is nothing but Sat, which is ever present, which does not come and go. There is nothing like coming and going for Sat. It is a great mistake to think it comes and goes. People say, "God came and gave me Darshan when I was meditating." This is a worldly feeling. Wherefrom did He come to give you Darshan? And where did He go after giving you Darshan? He neither came from anywhere nor went to any particular place. He was there only. You could see Him because your heart was pure. You cannot see Him when your heart is impure. But He neither comes nor goes.
