Thought for the day Truth is God. 


We can attain God by speaking the Truth
The roots of the tree are under the earth. However the fruit is seen outside as the tree. It expands, becomes dense and gives shade to others. Sathyam is the root of the tree. Dynamic conciousness is prema. Sathyam is unshakable. Prema is moving so it spreads more and more. Prema becomes as a tree, flower, fruit and it gives itself for the benefit of the world. Prema gives itself and so it is expanding.
 The root is the indweller in the body. The body is the tree. The indweller is blue and the size of a paddy tail. We must perform sadhana and make him bigger. When we do sadhana the light grows more and more. Then God himself functions within our body. The nutrients in the root enter the tree and circulate throughout the branches, flowers, fruits, leaves. In the same way, our indweller, God’s light, spread throughout our body. That time whatever he receives as the fruit, he uses for the welfare of mankind. He uses His whole life for the world and then merges with God. The root is not seen outside. If it is seen outside then the tree falls down. Likewise through sadhana if we bring the indweller out, then the jeeva will merge with God and the body would fall down. The one who does severe sadhana attains God and leaves their body. Sathyam is the root, Prema is the tree, branches, fruit and all. The root of Sathyam cannot be seen by others. Through ordinary devotion and prema, one can attain God. My prema on God cannot be contained within this body. I want to experience God through the entire creation by it becoming my body. I want every jeeva to become like me and only live for God. My prema will enter everyone. I shake Sathya, pull the fruit from Him and give to the world. This avatar is fully functioning. So through my prema I acquired more benefit for the world. This prema is giving itself to others. The prema is acquiring benefit from the unseen Sathyam and is visibly showing it to the world.  Kali yuga changing into Sathya Yuga. This is prema’s visible power. Yesterday, in the newspaper we saw a picture of Swami on the golden chariot. We also read the matter. When Swami came in the golden chariot many people phoned to me. They said, “The sun was beaming. The golden chariot was shining. When Swami came it was a wonderful scene.” Eddy also phoned, saying that, “Swami came in golden chariot on the ladies side and the gents saw him from a distance. Swami looked very small.” Everyone derived bliss when Swami came in golden chariot. I thought is the golden chariot efflugent because of Swami or is Swami efflugent because of the golden chariot? If the billion sun Madhava comes in a procession in a golden chariot. His effulgence gives bliss to all. Without Swami, what is the use of a golden chariot? Now let us see about this. God is in the santum santorium in a temple. During important functions at temples, they bring the deity out in a chariot as a procession. This is called Radho Utsavam. All who see this become purified. In Tamil nadu there is big chariot in Thiruvaru. That is the biggest. Next biggest is in Andal’s temple. Every year there is a chariot procession. The chariot is very big and goes around four streets. On two sides of the chariot they tie big ropes. Then on two sides of the road thousands of people stand and pull the chariot. There is proverb, “All have come together and are pulling the chariot.”.When the procession comes to the four streets, lakhs of people see and benefit. On the chariot the priest sprinkles holy water on everyone. Now they put batteries and motors. The chariot procession take place in this way. Without man’s effort all is happening mechanically.  What a pity. Man’s effort is very important to receive God’s grace. This is showing this.
 Now let us see how the golden chariot takes form. The people make every part of the chariot. They polish the gold. Then they assemble every part. Step by step the chariot takes form. All the parts are fixed and the chariot is ready. Then Swami sits on the chariot and He comes in procession. This is the effort of unity. All the parts unite and then it becomes chariot. Likewise our human body is like a golden chariot. God is a blue light the size of a paddy tail in our heart. He is the indweller. In the Gita, Krishna says, Mamam vasisho, jeevloka….the blue light that is within everyone is His amsa. That is the atma. That is Antaryami. When we perform sadhana the blue light becomes big. How we do sadhana? We purify every part of our body. How to purify every part of the golden chariot body? By controlling the 5 senses. Go beyond the three gunas, separate the 5 kosha’s. When we do all these things the body will be purified. Now the indweller who resides inside becomes big and spreads throughout the body. Then His light spreads throughout the body and He becomes a golden chariot. It is shining through the gold of God’s efflugence.  This is ojus, tejas. The body of the saints and sages shine within. This is tegas. Now God comes as procession in the golden chariot of his body. Now this jyothi must spread outside everywhere. This jyothi’s name is prema. This prema slowly slowy spreads outside. The prema light spread everywhere and sees the sathya light. One who purifies their
body into a golden chariot merges with God. When we purify every part of the body. Then every part pulls God outside. This is equal of everyone pulling the chariot together. Some do jyothi meditation like this. They imagine the blue light God in their forehead as a jyothi and then they meditate. They imagine the jyothi going to every part of the body. After it spread in every part they imagine the light spreading outside. Through this bhava the whole body is filled with light. This is the inner meaning of golden chariot.
