Personal and Impersonal God

Questioner: Guruji, this question arises from the difficulty I have with the concept of the Personal God, God with form and I ask myself what is that form?

Divinity face to face

How do we see Divinity face to face? When we can see that force in everything, in every living being, in every creature, in anything animate as well as inanimate. When the sun shines, the sun shines for all, and the glory of Divinity is there for all. You see. So this is what we […]
