E = MC2

‘Guruji,… please speak to me more about God, the Ultimate Reality…. I read in the Bible as Sadguru Jesus Christ telling his disciples that ‘eternal life is knowing the one true God and the Christ’….You also said so. You had also said that the message of every great and powerful sovereign spiritual person will always be related to the Supreme Spirit in whom we live, move and have our being….’ Atma Prakash requested his guruji.

The Baba looked at disciple with great love…. 

He was silent for few minutes. Then he said:

‘God is Spirit ….. God is Light ….. God is Love…. These are how great spiritual masters and scriptures of religions speak of God at deeper mystical and experiential levels…..

‘God is Spirit’ implies that God is the source of the primordial energy, the creative power…. Everything has its source in God. Everything exists in God. Everything exists for God. Everything comes from God and returns to God……

‘The sum total of energy in the universe remains same…. The scientist say that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed.. It can only be transformed from one form to another… It only assumes different forms… Matter is also nothing but energy in solid form…Albert Einstein’s famous equation E = MC2 gives the unimaginable quantity of energy contained in matter. In this equation, ‘E’ is the energy. ‘M’ is the mass and ‘C’ is the speed of light ….. as you may know…

‘The tremendous energy generated by splitting the atom is another example…. 

‘Mind is also a form of energy… It can interact with and influence matter… Uri Geller, an Israeli illusionist, could bend a spoon by concentrating his mind and focusing his sight on it….

‘Discoveries of Quantum Physics have shown that the consciousness of the observer influences the outcome of the observed….. 

‘A ‘spiritual person’ is a spirited person, a person filled with spiritual energy… He is conscious of his existence in God. All of us exist in God and because of God. But most of us are not conscious of this truth. We exist on the periphery…. At the sensual and sensational levels… 

‘We humans are actually spiritual entities in physical bodies… When we are conscious of this our true spiritual nature, we become divine. We will be one with God. When we have God with us, everything is possible for us… We will be energetic, …healthy, ….powerful… We will become invincible and irresistible….We will be in harmony with the whole creation… The Universe will be on our side… the Universal Energy will be available to us… We will be connected to the Cosmic Consciousness…We will be able to go beyond the limitations of time and space…We become children of eternity…We inherit ‘eternal life’….

‘Light is a visible form of energy… It is the relational aspect of God. Perceptible,.. understandable, …visible. It also implies wisdom…. An ‘enlightened’ person, a person who has light within, is a very wise person... He will be an embodiment of wisdom…. That is why many great saints and religions speak of God as light…

‘Allah is the light of the world’ says the Quran… ‘God is the Light of lights’ says the Guru Grandh Sahib… ‘God is light’ says the Bible.. In Hinduism the words deva, devi, daivom… etc. comes from the Sanskrit root ‘dei’ meaning light. The Upanishads speak about the ‘Supreme Person of sun-like luster shining beyond all darkness’ through whom alone we can go beyond death…..The term ‘Buddha’ means the enlightened one……Thus, God as light is a common insight shared by most religions…..This a ‘meeting point’ of religions.’

The Baba stopped for a while and looked at his disciple.
