The Omnipresent Spirit of God

                                              
                           The word Omnipresent means present everywhere at the same time. The most Supreme Godhead is present in the Infinite expanse of the Universe, is everywhere in the Cosmos and at the same the  time. It is very difficult for normal human beings to be able to comprehend the presence of the most Supreme Godhead in the presence of the most sub-atomic to the most gigantic planet which may be a million times greater than planet earth, but this is the truth. To tell you more, the presence of the most Supreme Godhead in every particle of the Universe will continue to exist till Eternity because God’s creation is not to exist only for a limited period of time but will be existent till Eternity because even though there is a creation, sustenance and renewal process of the Cosmos the leela or play of God is Infinite and Eternal. In other words, God’s cause for creation shall continue till Eternity. The only cause for the Universe to undergo a permanent dissolution would be the implementation of God’s Will for such a  possibility which shall not happen in any manner because God’s leela or play is about Infinity and Eternity. Therefore, the most Supreme Godhead is present in the tiniest God Particle (Higgs Boson) to the gigantic rocky structure of the Himalayas.




                      The Omnipresent Spirit of the most Supreme Godhead in every living particle is realised in the third state of consciousness. The most important contribution of being able to comprehend the Omnipresent Spirit of God in everything you see and everywhere you may go is the spiritual insight  of being able to grasp the presence of God in every living creature, whether they may be animate or inanimate or whether the object of attention be a positive or a negative aspect. When a spiritual aspirant is able to comprehend the embodiment of God everywhere he may go or anything he may see, he grasps the presence of Divinity everywhere, anyplace and anytime. The capacity of seeing the aspect of Divinity within the confines, boundaries or the parameters of one’s visionary sight instills love on a tremendous amount on the object of  attention. The only thing of prime importance for a third state spiritual traveller is to shower abundant love on all of God’s Infinite and Eternal creation. The other quality that develops in the consciousness of the third state spiritual traveller is the ever magnifying peace effect it has  not only in his not so fully awake soul but also around the community, society and the entire world. The third state spiritual traveller starts showering abundant love to all of God’s creation and he has turned into an official peace ambassador for God.




                       The Omnipresent Spirit of God is present in both the animate and the inanimate. The materialists who doesn’t have the spiritual insight to grasp the presence of pure energy, pure consciousness or God  in the inanimate creation of God may not be aware that both the living and non-living things are composed of exactly the same, atoms, electrons and molecules. Therefore, even the inanimate things are composed of vibrant and very much alive chemical composition as the chemical makeup of living things. So it is not a blunder at all to claim that there are no inanimate things on the planet and the entire Cosmos and that the term non-living things or the inanimate can be only be confined to a biological terminology. Since the non-living things are on equal par with the living things and that both are essentially the very same in structure, composed of vibrant and alive atoms, electrons and molecules and since the essence of both can be believed to be pure  energy, pure consciousness or God, we can come to a final conclusion that  everything and the object of attention everywhere you may go is –God.




                    God is Omnipresent in both the positive  and the negative aspects of life on the planet and in the entire Universe. Spiritual aspirants who have transcended at least the third spiritual plane realize that it is not only with the positive facets of life but that even the negative sides of life is infused with the Divine, Ultimate and the Supreme Will of God. Therefore, it is the most Supreme Godhead’s Will, whether we may be subject to a positive harmony or a negative disharmony. “Every thought, word or deed is an act of God.” So whether it be the most compassionate mission of Mother Teresa, the non-violence movement of Mahatma Gandhi to drive away the British Colonial rule, the humanitarian efforts of Sri Sathya Sai Baba or the dictatorial, tyrannical and the violent injustice of Adolf Hitler on the Jews during World War II,  both the positive harmony and the negative disharmony on the planet is the Infinite Will of God. Whether you be a sinner or a saint, a profane or sacred, rich or poor, high profile or a slum dweller, a beggar or an Emperor, everyone and everybody is pure consciousness or God. There is the presence of God  in a ruthless dictator like Adolf Hitler and also in the presence of a compassionate saint like Sri Sathya Sai Baba.



                                           “The Lord pervades everything.”
                                                                                         -Isha Upanishad





                            The Lord is present in every piece of creation not only on the planet but in the entire manifested Universe. The composition of all the animate or inanimate is exactly the same, therefore God is present in the molecular structure of  a rock as well as in the microscopic structure of the cells of the heart of a saint like Mr.Dipak Chopra. A positive aspect or a negative aspect, a positive harmony or a negative disharmony, everything is God and everything is God’s Divine Will. To cut short and sum it up in one phrase- Everything in creation is One and essentially the very same or everything and everybody can be denoted by only one word, that is-God.
