Meaning 1 -

It is Bhagavan's nature to reveal himself to his true devotees. Starting from Swayambhuva Manu, there are many examples of this divine nature. Devotees perform deep tapas, and out of his grace, he reveals himself. His presence is beyond ordinary perception. Only those with deep devotion and purity in heart can experience him. Non-devotees cannot see him as they lack the spiritual connection. Bhagavan is not like physical objects that reflect light; he is beyond material vision. Only through bhakti does the inner eye open, allowing one to witness the divine.

• Bhagavan chooses when to reveal himself. His revelation is not automatic but a response to devotion and surrender.
• Bhagavan exists beyond the limitations of time and space. Therefore, his form is beyond normal vision.
• Only a pure heart can witness Bhagavan. As darkness cannot coexist with light, ignorance cannot coexist with divine vision.
• Non-devotees are veiled by Maya. The illusions of the material world prevent them from perceiving the divine presence.

Meaning 2 -

Bhagavan is the source of all brilliance. The Sun, Moon, and stars derive their light from him. His radiance surpasses the brightness of any celestial body. His brilliance is not just physical but spiritual, illuminating hearts with knowledge and wisdom. He is the light that guides souls toward liberation.

• Bhagavan's brilliance represents divine wisdom. His light dispels the darkness of ignorance and guides souls toward moksha.
• The Sun and stars are temporary; HIS light is eternal. Celestial bodies fade over time, but his radiance is forever.
• HE is the inner light within all beings. Not only does Bhagavan light the cosmos, but he also shines within every living soul.
• Bhagavan's brilliance is both physical and metaphysical. It is not just visible light but also the essence of consciousness and truth.

Why is yajnopaveeta hung around the ear during urination?

1. The ear is considered to be a microcosm of the entire body, containing points that correspond to various organs and bodily functions. This concept is known as auriculotherapy. According to this practice, specific points on the ear are believed to be connected to different parts of the body, including the bladder. 2. Auriculotherapy: This is a form of alternative medicine based on the idea that the ear is a map of the body's anatomy, and that stimulating points on the ear can influence corresponding body parts and organs. 3. Bladder Point: In auriculotherapy, there is a specific point on the ear that is thought to correspond to the bladder. Stimulating this point is believed to help with urinary issues, including bladder function. 4. Reflexology: Similar to acupressure, reflexology also includes the ear as one of the areas where pressure points can affect other parts of the body. The bladder reflex point is typically located on the lower part of the ear.
