God Shall be Worshiped by None but God - 12.01.09

There is a paradoxical statement in the Vedas that says, “God shall be worshiped by none but God,” reveals Shunyamurti, the spiritual leader of the Sat Yoga Institute in Costa Rica. “You’re not allowed, and you cannot worship God unless you realize you are God. That is what real worship of God means, that you realize the Godhood, otherwise it’s not true worship.” And when we realize that we are gods and goddesses, “And we realize what that means is not, ‘Oh the ego is a god over others.’ No, but one has surrendered the ego to the true God-consciousness. Then we are free to see each other in a state of unconditional love.” Recorded on the afternoon of Tuesday, December 1, 2009.
