Chapter 7
2. God pervades everywhere, at all times and in all things, men and creatures etc., and He belongs to all. So a devotee thinks, that He is here, He is present at the time, He is in him, and belongs to him also. By believing so, if he chants His name, his mind gets attached to Him very easily, during spiritual practice.
Madadrayah:—He takes refuge in Me alone viz., and depends on Me, alone.
It is in the nature of man, that he depends on someone, or the other. Being a fragment of God, he actually seeks God. But he, without knowing his true affinity for God, accepts his affinity for the body and the world. All the worldly things, including body, are perishable and so they cannot satisfy him, while God, is eternal, gracious and omnipotent, so he, by accepting his affinity for Him, should depend on Him only, and be subject to His will, because He creates even unfavourable circumstances, for his welfare.
