The Relationship with the Master in Spiritual Life – Om Point

1950s_Baba_in_car

Ultimately the aspirant has to realize that God is the only Reality and that he is really one with God. This implies that he should not be overpowered by the spectacle of the multiform universe. In fact, the whole universe is in the Self and springs into existence from the tiny point in the Self referred to as the Om Point. But the Self as the individualized soul has become habituated to gathering experiences through one medium or another, and therefore it comes to experience the universe as a formidable rival, other than itself. Those who have realized God constantly see the universe as springing from this Om Point, which is in everyone.
