Bhagavad Gita 9.4

mayā tatam idaṁ sarvaṁ jagad avyakta-mūrtinā

mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni na cāhaṁ teṣv avasthitaḥ

 

By my unmanifest form, all this world is pervaded,

All beings in me, in balance, are situated.

Though they dwell in me, I stand apart—

Unbound, unattached, the supreme heart.

 

Realizing your presence means knowing that you are not a being to be reached only in the distant future, at the far end of life’s journey. You are to be realized right here and now—by tuning my consciousness to your divine frequency and shutting out the noise of the world outside and the mind inside.

Feeling your purpose means realizing that you, O Lord, have always accepted me as part of your team. Every situation, however adverse it may seem, is pregnant with the potential opportunity to serve you through that situation.

Feeling your power means recognizing that, no matter how mighty or scary the threats in the outer world may seem—or even the threats in the inner world, in the form of doubts and delusional desires—you, O Lord, remain mightier than all of them, fully capable of protecting me.

In your loving harmony, O Lord, all realities ultimately find their rightful place. Your divine purpose will override, guide, and outlast all other realities, becoming my supreme reality forever.
