WHERE IS GOD?

Where is God? Can we find Him only in the temples, churches, or mosques? No. Is He to be sought only in the four Vedas or Upavedas, the six Vedangas or in the six schools of philosophy? No. Does He dwell in the place of pilgrimage or Tirthas alone? No. No. No. Where is He then?

He is seated in the hearts of all. He is not very far. He is quite close to you. Subtler than the subtlest, greater than the greatest, He is located in the cavity of your heart, in the innermost recesses or chambers, the Hridaya Kamala. You can reach Him by sincere Sadhana or spiritual practices.
