Where to find God?
At the start of the
Universe, God started placing various things at strategic points. He kept fire
in wood. Man found it. He kept precious gems at the bottom of the sea and He
found man finding them out. He kept planets outside this world and He found man
reaching them in no time. He placed
items as far as possible and yet found man reaching them sooner than later.
When it was finally time to place Himself, He was lost in thought. He knew
however far He kept Himself from the man, man would reach him sooner or later.
He knew man would always reach out to Him in the external world as he was used
to getting everything from the external world. So only place where man would never
search for him would be within him. So, He placed Himself in the heart of the
man. So man after attaining everything in the world still finds something basic
missing and goes in search of God. And since he is used to searching for
everything outside he does so with the God and remains a failure in spite of
life long search. He succeeds only when he goes within!
You can call anyone
in the world through your phone but try calling your own number. You’ll find it
engaged for ever. Like-wise, it’s easier to win the world but knowing ‘self’ is
the most difficult of all journeys that we undertake. But certainly it is the only journey worth
taking. And the returns though are intangible most priceless in the world!
But I want to enjoy
this world.
I haven’t yet got
even little of anything that I wish for.
I am not yet old
enough for ‘Moksha’.
What about my
family? How can I not fulfill my responsibilities towards them?
These and such excuses
are
bombarded the moment I say ‘know thyself’ or ‘realize self’. And all I can say
is ……
“….I know that
priceless wealth is in thee
But I do not have the
heart to leave the tinsel that fills my room….”
-Rabindranath Tagore – Geethanjali
