Seeing God in all beings from "summary" of The Bhagavad Gita by

The wise see with equal vision a learned and humble sage, a cow, an elephant, a dog, and an outcaste. They see the same in those who are friends and those who are foes, in the righteous and the unrighteous. For those who possess true wisdom, the divine presence is found in all beings, regardless of their outward appearance or behavior. This vision of seeing God in all beings requires a deep understanding of the interconnectedness of all life. It is a recognition that beneath the surface differences lies a common thread that unites us all. Just as a single ocean gives rise to countless waves, the divine essence pervades every living being, animating them with the same universal energy. When one sees God in all beings, there is a profound sense of empathy and compassion that naturally arises. This vision transcends mere tolerance or acceptance; it is a deep appreciation for the inherent divinity that exists within each and every creature. It is a recognition of the sacredness of all life, and a reverence for the interconnected web of existence that sustains us all. This vision transforms the way one interacts with the world, leading to a sense of kinship with all beings. It inspires acts of kindness, generosity, and service, as one recognizes that to serve others is to serve God Himself. It fosters a sense of unity and harmony, breaking down the barriers that separate us from one another and from the divine presence that dwells within us all.
  1. Seeing God in all beings is not just a philosophical concept, but a practical way of living in the world. It is a way of seeing beyond the illusions of the ego and the limitations of the material world, to recognize the divine spark that exists within each and every one of us. It is a path to liberation, a way of transcending the cycle of birth and death, and realizing our true nature as eternal souls, united in the love of the Supreme Being.
