The Power of Paramatma 

Every morning our reader, Vallabha Hari, who is a natural Master of Ceremonies, projects out on the microphone a passage from the Bhagavad-Gita: As It Is and it is always a reassuring message from God. Today’s passage went as such from chapter six: 

“For one who sees Me everywhere and sees everything in Me, I am never lost, nor is he ever lost to Me.” And, very closely connected to verse thirty is the sloka of yesterday, verse twenty-nine, “A true yogi observes Me in all beings and also sees every being in me. Indeed, the self-realized person sees Me, the Supreme Lord, everywhere.”

It just so happened that the theme of the omnipresence of Krishna reappeared in my afternoon session of our weekly Zoom class. There we delved into the topic of the power paramatma, the Supersoul, being inside and outside; mystically present in all things within existence. This information on the Supersoul is sourced from chapter thirteen. Interesting words are used to describe this all-pervasive feature of the Almighty such as “He devours and develops all.” Another of his features is His ability to spread but never diminish in strength and power. When we try to spread, through multitasking and going overboard, we spread ourselves to thinly and become ineffective.

There is no comparison in the matter of putting side-by-side the soul and the Supersoul. We will always be infinitesimal. 

May the Source be with you!
