The Three Worlds
The physical world on which we are now living is known as the Corporeal World. Beyond this world of matter, of physical elements, there is the subtle region of light, sometimes referred to as the astral plane. Beyond the subtle region is the Incorporeal World, a place of constant, unchangeable light, of complete stability, silence and peace. The land of Nirvana, which means the land beyond sound or the land of release or of liberation. The Divine Abode of God is in the Incorporeal World, beyond the corporeal and the subtle regions; it is the world of infinite eternal light, the Supreme Abode, also called the Brahmlok or Paramdhãm.
God is not Omnipresent
God is the Father of all souls; He is not omnipresent in this corporeal world. If the Supreme Soul did pervade the entire universe, surely then, the qualities of the Supreme Soul would pervade everything. There would be no difference the living and the non-living, and each and every being would reflect the qualities of the Supreme. Such things as sin, sorrow, impurity and peaceless would not exist and only the qualities of God would be displayed-love, purity, knowledge, peace and bliss. To-day, we see that, in all people, vices, pain and peacelessness are present, i.e. Maya (Nescience and evil) is present. If God were omnipresent, purity, peace and happiness ought to be found everywhere but these are not found.
We are intimately related to God, who is our Supreme Father, Supreme Teacher and Supreme Preceptor. We are the children of the One who is the Lord of the Three Worlds, and is the Supreme Father and the Supreme Soul. Without being omnipresent in the three worlds or in all the souls, God knows the full story of the souls, His children, and complete history and geography of the three worlds. He knows the whole story of the Drama of the world of human beings from its beginning to its end.

Positive Thoughts
Spirituality
Spirituality is not a luxury, something for people who have nothing else to do but sit around and meditate. In fact, it is the lack of spirituality in daily life that is causing the breakdown and destruction of our planet and our civilization. As we restore spirituality we can find methods of working together to create better selves and a better world. Thus we can see, looking at our global relationships, that spirituality is an integral part of life.
Yoga
Yoga, which is associated with meditation, simply means to have union
or make connection with some object, subject, person or God. However,
yoga is usually associated with spirituality. Yoga is to have connection and to have dialogue or sweet conversation with the divine source of inspiration, whom many call God. Meditation, therefore is a prerequisite or condition that assists spiritual seekers to have unbroken, undisturbed and continuous access with divinity and this experience is called yoga, another form of prayer.

Understanding And Overcoming Ego (cont.)
To conquer ego, humility and honesty are required. We need the courage to look into the self honestly and acknowledge that the characteristics of I know and I control exist and have to be removed, if there is to be truth and happiness inside. We need to remember the original I am e.g.
* I am a child of the Supreme Soul, similar to him in qualities and powers,
* I am the soul which is seated on the Supreme Being's (God's) heart throne,
* I am a knowledgeful soul,
* I am a blissful soul who gifts everyone with the treasure of happinessetc.
Through meditation and remembering the true I am (shared above), the pollution of the selfish ego is gradually replaced by the remembrance and the experience of the pure self: the I that is not attached to anything, or anyone, but is completely whole within itself. The expression of this pure entity is not selfish but selfless and the person begins to share with others, everything that he/she possesses - knowledge, specialities, talents, virtues etc. where necessary, facilitating the awakening of the true potential of others, just like sunlight. Light is a great facilitator. It steps in, awakens and then moves on. An egoless person acts, interacts and expresses themselves in this way.
Blessing: May you be free from any bondage of karma and with the balance of karma and yoga, experience the karmateet stage.
When there is the balance of karma and yoga, every action automatically brings you success. A karma yogi soul will never be trapped in the bondage of karma. One who is free from any bondage of karma is said to be karmateet. 'Karmateet' does not mean that you go beyond performing karma. Do not be detached from performing karma, but remain detached from being trapped in any bondage of karma. Through their own elevated actions, such karma yogi souls will enable the actions of others to become elevated. For them, every action will be entertainment and they will not experience anything to be difficult.
