Turn your vision inward

Once Vivekananda asked Ramakrishna Paramahamsa whether he had seen God. Ramakrishna Paramahamsa emphatically replied, “Yes, I have seen God. I have seen Him just as I am seeing you.” “Then why I don’t see Him?” asked Vivekananda. Ramakrishna replied, “You weep for your family, you suffer for your business and wealth, but do you ever weep or yearn for a vision of God? Do that and you will certainly see God! All the time I am pining only for the vision of God. Therefore, God is visible to me at all times in every human being.” In this world, there is nothing easier than attaining God. You face hardships and feel dejected because you do not understand this truth. Instead of shedding tears for mundane things, why don’t you pine for the vision of God? Don’t go anywhere in search of God. Turn your vision inward. You can see God instantly. Have full faith that God is residing in your heart and experience Him within you.
