Passage 4

In English

“Swa shareeram Swayam Jyotihi.” His self-effulgent flame is in our own body. “Swarupam sarva Rakshanam.” This protector of all beings is residing in our own body. The inquiry into God’s existence and the method by which we can reach Him, is going on since ancient times. This became a complex problem as time progressed. Several sages and seers made efforts to find a solution to this difficult problem using their steadfastness and scholarship. Unable to find a solution, they did intense penance for thousands of years. Ultimately, they succeeded. They declared, “.” These great souls revealed to the world that they found a resplendent, self-effulgent , who is beyond the darkness of ignorance. They revealed where and how they searched for this, . It is not in the outer world and by outward vision. They declared that they found Him within their own self, their own divine feelings and their own body, by an inward vision.
