The saints have called it the causal form. There is the theory of cause, isn't there? Vedanta is all about the cause, and it struggles there. 'Yato va imani bhutani jayante' (From whom all these beings are born). So, 'imani bhutani kasmat jayante' (from what are these beings born)? From this swarup. That is His extraordinary divine power. During the time of dissolution, God absorbs the fifty-crore-yojan yojan Measure of distance equalling four gãus (approximately 3- 4 miles). Tap to open in glossary → And at the time of creation, He manifests those infinite crores of universes from His belly. Such is the extraordinary nature of God. If there is a banyan seed, even if the banyan tree covers an acre, the entire banyan tree is contained in one seed, contained in a seed as small as a mustard seed. That is the extraordinary nature of the cause of Maharaj. One should not ask how God does that. Otherwise, Maharaj says, even Brahma and others got confused. If Brahma and others think, 'How does God do this?' Then Maharaj says they get lost in maya. If they accept that since He is God, He is all-powerful and so He must be doing it, then Maharaj says they have crossed maya. Because the intellect cannot reach God. Only faith and belief can reach Him. And only through belief is He the Supreme Soul. After that, if one keeps belief, God will show him, 'Look, I am like this.' God Himself reveals His swarup, saying, 'By My grace, you will see My swarup as it is.' But first, keep belief. Keep belief and extreme trust in God, that God exists. That is why it is said in the Vedas, 'Tarko apratishthah' (logic is inconclusive). In the form of God, inference and direct perception do not work. No decision based on that. Decision based on what? Scriptural. The decision about God is to be made based on the Upanishads. And in the Upanishads too, the decision about the form of God is to be made by the principle of all branches (sarva-shakha-nyaya). It is not that if one branch says this, then another branch says that. By the principle of all branches, meaning by analyzing everything, a conclusion is to be drawn. So we have to look at all the Vachanamruts. Where has it been said like this, and what has been said about Maharaj's swarup. Based on that, we have to decide. And that itself is Maharaj's decision based on the Vachanamrut. Shikshapatri and Vachanamrut. On the contrary, in Kariyani 8, it is clarified that describing God as subtler than the subtle and grosser than the gross is actually some extraordinary divine power of God.
