fought against. Meditate on Him as powerful in speech, the Indra of Indras, the

giver of riches and the richness of all.He has more than one form, thought his

form is the biggest of all. He exists penetrating all planes and making

everything brilliant.

 

Ecplanation :

1,2. When mankind falls into evil ways,the Lord causes wars among the beings

which prove the power of his mighty hand. When the Lord begins to punish beings

through wars, man cannot resist.Man can fight against others in a war, but he

cannot fight against the instinct of war-mindedness when he takes to evil.

3. The Word of God is the creation of all the universe as his utterance. Hence

the word lives with God as OM to be uttered forth by him in the form of cosmic

breath which will repeatedly pulsate into the details of the whole universe

which forms the syllables,words,syntax and meaning of his utterance

4. Indra is the king of devas who represent king-hood or rulership as a

principle of the universe .Since this principle comes out of the Lord,the Lord

can be verily meditated as the Indra of Indras or the ruler of the rulers

5. When god mindedness and godly behaviour is adopted by man he inherits the

wealth of creation as his wealth.He will be placed in a position to steer the

wealth of creation towards the progress of the created being.

6. What ever wealth .we have we should meditate it as the form of the Lord that

approaches us to give peace,plenty and happiness

7. By the power of his synthesis, the Lord can simulataneously exist in more

than one form,though the whole universe is his one form. At the same time,the

Lord can exist on earth as more than one incarnation as it was seen by the

presence of Rama and Parasurama talking to one another, as Lord Krishna appeared

in all the houses of his devotee at the same time to Narada

8. Since the whole universe is the one form of the Lord, His form is naturally

the biggest.

9. All the whole universe is the one form of the Lord,His form is naturally the

biggest.

10. Since the Lord is the background upon which everything shines- forth into

objectivity of form,name and concept, the Lord is the one who makes everything

shines
