I do not find sorrow anywhere, but find Bliss everywhere - Swami

[Guest guest]

What is the form of God? Daivam manusha rupena (God manifests in human form). But man is getting deluded by his physical form and considers himself to be a mere mortal. All that we see is the form of God. He is the embodiment of bliss. Nityanandam paramasukhadam kevalam jnana murtim (God is the embodiment of eternal bliss. He is wisdom absolute, the One without a second). The entire world is pervaded with bliss. There is no trace of sorrow anywhere.

 

But you may not agree with Me. You say, "Swami, you do not see sorrow, but we see it everywhere." Whether you see or I see, there is only bliss everywhere. As you think of only sorrow, forgetting the bliss, you find only sorrow. But I don't find sorrow anywhere. I see only bliss, bliss, and bliss alone. When we are the embodiments of Divinity, how can we ever be afflicted with sorrow? You are afflicted with sorrow because you don't realise the temporary nature of the world.
