GOD
(H.H. Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj)
Who is God? What is God? Is there a God? Where is God? How to realise God? Man wants
an answer to these eternal questions. Certainly there is God. God exists. He is the only reality. God
is your creator, saviour and redeemer. He is all-pervading. He dwells in your heart. He is always
near you. He is nearer to you than your jugular vein or nose. He loves you. He can talk to you. You
cannot find God by the intellect. But, you can find Him by feeling, meditation, experience and
realisation.
Who Is God?
The Petromax does not talk, but it shines and sheds light all round. The jessamine does not
speak, but it wafts its fragrance everywhere. The lighthouse sounds no drum, but sends its friendly
light to the mariner. The Unseen beats no gong, but Its omnipresence is felt by the dispassionate and
discriminating sage.
Behind all names and forms is the one nameless, formless Essence. Behind all governors is
the one Supreme Governor of governors. Behind all lights is the one Light of lights. Behind all
sounds, there is the soundless Supreme Silence. Behind all teachers is the one Supreme Guru of
Gurus.
Behind all these perishable objects is the one imperishable Absolute. Behind all these
motions is the one motionless Infinite. Behind time, minutes, and days is the one timeless Eternity.
Behind hatred, riots and wars is the one hidden Love.

GOD
God is the totality of all that exists, both animate and inanimate, sentient and insentient. He
is free from ills and limitations. He is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent. He has no
beginning, middle, or end. He is the indweller in all beings. He controls from within.
God is all in all. God is the only reality in this universe. The existence of things is by the light
of God.
God is ever living. All depend on Him. He is not depending on any. He is the Truth.
God is the end or goal of all Yoga Sadhanas. He is the centre towards which all things strive.
He is the highest purpose or highest good of the world. You have the urge of hunger. There is food
