In plain words
Each one does it for his own selfish ends. No one does it for God. Whoever does it for God turns into God. He alone is the knower of Brahman who becomes Brahman itself. “I meditate for an hour,” people say. Who are you doing this meditation for? You are doing it for yourself. I am doing japa. Who are you doing it for? You are doing it for yourself. Everyone is doing pūjās. All these you are doing for yourself. To be doing it for oneself and to think that we are doing it for God is a great mistake. Well then, when you are doing it for yourself, think of your own self as God. “I am not man. Iam God”: think so. This itself is the true God. Do not think of yourself as a man. To think of yourself as a man is half the truth. I am man half truth. I am not animal half truth. I am man, not animal. Then he becomes a full man. This very man turns into the form of God. “God in human form.” He has come in human form. So man must not think of himself as a man, but must grow the feeling, “I am God.” From the time we rise at daybreak until we lie down at night, in 24 hours we utter So-ham 21,600 times. What is the meaning of this Soham? I am God. So: He (God). Ham: I; that is, I myself am God. When you yourself are God, why should you believe yourself to be a man? The body is a human body. But it is God's dwelling. Body is the temple of God. We must believe the body to be a temple. This is the kṣetra. You yourself are the kṣetrajña. It is because the kṣetrajña is there that it got the name kṣetra. If the kṣetrajña himself were not there, this would not be a kṣetra at all. So the kṣetrajña is present in everyone. We must grow such faith. Only then will bad qualities, bad ideas and evil thoughts go far away. Today a great, incurable disease is in each and every one. For any disease there is a medicine to cure it, but for this disease there is no medicine at all. What is that disease? It is none other than Ahaṅkāra. For a small man, a small Ahaṅkāra; for a big man, a big Ahaṅkāra. Ahaṅkāra enters according to the vessel. Water fills according to the vessel. There may be a difference in quantity, but the quality is all one.
