This really means we become, as St. Francis of Assisi calls, &amp;#39;instruments in the hand of God&amp;#39;. &lt;br /&gt;The whole concept of Nishkamakarma is this detachment from the self when we are engaged in action.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/6776050037405177902/comments/default/897783661701435538'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/6776050037405177902/comments/default/897783661701435538'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.livingspark.net/2009/07/essence-of-divinity.html?showComment=1247576619641#c897783661701435538' title=''/><author><name>TIB</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09804352814000162154</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09699537817012312611'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.livingspark.net/2009/07/essence-of-divinity.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444481640740210680.post-6776050037405177902' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/posts/default/6776050037405177902' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444481640740210680.post-3671718690758936278</id><published>2009-07-14T12:21:27.483+05:30</published><updated>2009-07-14T12:21:27.483+05:30</updated><title type='text'>I would like to add what TBT has mentioned in his ...</title><content type='html'>I would like to add what TBT has mentioned in his thought process.&lt;br /&gt;When the mass becomes energy by the process of radiation, the energy transforms all the surrounding mass also to energy by the process of destroying it. eg.,the Hiroshima and Nagasaki  incidents.&lt;br /&gt;Meaning, when we are even near to a radiating mass we starts radiating and becomes energy...the purpose of Satsung.&lt;br /&gt;-Ram</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/6776050037405177902/comments/default/3671718690758936278'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/6776050037405177902/comments/default/3671718690758936278'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.livingspark.net/2009/07/essence-of-divinity.html?showComment=1247554287483#c3671718690758936278' title=''/><author><name>Raam</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00600123280229812184</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.livingspark.net/2009/07/essence-of-divinity.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444481640740210680.post-6776050037405177902' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/posts/default/6776050037405177902' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444481640740210680.post-5353437768587153538</id><published>2009-07-14T11:58:32.535+05:30</published><updated>2009-07-14T11:58:32.535+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Dear Tib,

While electricity is being used for many useful things, we cannot withstand the touch and feel of it with our direct perceptions.&lt;br /&gt;Same as feeling about God. We can not withstand through this physical body while coming in contact with HIM directly.&lt;br /&gt;Of course, like we feel the electricity through meters and gadgets, we also feel God in day to day life through the beings around us. But coming in direct contact with HIM is so powerful and could not withstand through this body.&lt;br /&gt;As you said in your reply, &amp;quot;If all the knowledge we have can not lead us to a participative and inclusive action at the human level than I think we miserably fail in our lives.&amp;quot;, I feel even the participative work needs to be decided by Him. And nothing fails in HIS nature. I am daily experiencing that things happen only if it has to happen. All our planning through our intellects are only happening at his WILL. This trigger comes from the unmanifested if it has to be manifeted.&lt;br /&gt;Love&lt;br /&gt;Ram</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/6776050037405177902/comments/default/5353437768587153538'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/6776050037405177902/comments/default/5353437768587153538'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.livingspark.net/2009/07/essence-of-divinity.html?showComment=1247552912535#c5353437768587153538' title=''/><author><name>Raam</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00600123280229812184</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.livingspark.net/2009/07/essence-of-divinity.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444481640740210680.post-6776050037405177902' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/posts/default/6776050037405177902' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444481640740210680.post-3426588908062328903</id><published>2009-07-14T10:30:00.898+05:30</published><updated>2009-07-14T10:30:00.898+05:30</updated><title type='text'>TBT,

One input I would like to suggest is that the equation may be modified as below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paramatma = -∞∫∞ Jeevatma * C↑2.&lt;br /&gt;(Integral over -∞ to +∞). This is because C↑2 is a limiting constant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But the important point you are making regarding the radiation decay, which in material manifestation is due to the weak nuclear force is very fitting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the unified field theory of the spirit the only way to unite with the divine plenum is to radiate and decay into the everlasting energy field. This is beautifully captured in your article.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/6776050037405177902/comments/default/3426588908062328903'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/6776050037405177902/comments/default/3426588908062328903'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.livingspark.net/2009/07/essence-of-divinity.html?showComment=1247547600898#c3426588908062328903' title=''/><author><name>TIB</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09804352814000162154</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09699537817012312611'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.livingspark.net/2009/07/essence-of-divinity.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444481640740210680.post-6776050037405177902' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8444481640740210680/posts/default/6776050037405177902' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444481640740210680.post-2423897956814301779</id><published>2009-07-14T09:39:18.224+05:30</published><updated>2009-07-14T09:39:18.224+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Dear TIB,
