“Om namo bhagavate vasudevayah”
This is the question, asked again and again by many people, can we see the God? Why is it so difficult to see the God? I consider these questions as very valid..
What I understand, there are only two ways to see God.
1.God takes wordily form, means either he comes into form of Human or some other living being which we can see.
2.A human should acquire the power to see the god.
Unfortunately both of the above listed phenomena are very difficult. But then both of them are possible. As we all know, Lord Keep coming to this earth in every Yuga. But it is not possible for God to appear to each and every individual who want to see God.
What human left with is the second method, that human should try to see the God. But then this is also the main difficulty. Seeing god is very difficult Let’s see these Shlokas to know why?:
------------------------------
Ch:13:Sh16(line2)
suksmatvat tad avijneyam dura-stham cantike ca tat
“Because he is subtle, He is explicable. He is far ways from the ignorant and closer to the knower of the self”
Ch:7:sh25
naham prakasah sarvasya yoga-maya-samavrtah
mudho ’yam nabhijanati loko mam ajam avyayam
"Covered by my divine potency, I do not manifest to all, For this reason this ignorant community of people does not properly know me as, unborn an immortal."
------------------------------
Let’s summarize from above two shlokas. God (Shri Krishna) is difficult to be seen because:
1. He is Sukshama(extremely subtle).
2. He is covered by his divine potency(Yoga maya).
Now this is the answer. We human cannot see God because he is covered by divine potency called as “Yoga maya” and is sukshama (extremely subtle). We human are unable to see God because we are unable to realize that special power or energy which is called the “Yoga maya”.
But again this also gives the way to see God. All those people who can acquire the capacity to know that special power called “yoga maya” can see the God.
That power is acquired by the constant devotion towards Lord and continuous practice of Yoga. When a human by practice of yoga attain the highest state called “Samadhi” (deep meditation), he acquires that power and he can see the God.
There are many examples of enlightened people in this world who have already seen god. Few examples are : 1 Ramakrishna paramahansa. 2. Swami vivekanand 3. Yogananda 4. Shri Yukteshwara 5. Buddha 6. Nanak dev 7. Shri Shirdi Sai baba 8. Meera bai 9 Tulasida etc.
There are endless references in the scriptures giving such examples and also the ways. I request all devotees to first fix their faith and try yoga honestly. There is no doubt that those who would be able to acquire the highest state of yoga would be able to see God.
Why wait for next lives, why to wait for liberation, why not see God in this life itself? Lets all try for it.
May Bhagvan Krishna bless you.
