| 460 我们有时会有疑问；膜拜有形相和无形相的上帝，二者之间有无差别？ |

Sep 1, 2012: Sometimes there are some doubts, if our worship of an individual form and the absolute formless can both be true? Swami shows us the way to reconcile the doubt in our mind and march onward to Him.
The spiritual aspirant is given to wonder which one is better or true - the Saguna (with form) aspect or the Nirguna (formless) aspect of God. Understand that they are like ice and water. Though water is formless, it takes the form of the vessel which contains it. Water and ice are one and the same. Similarly there is no difference between the two forms of worship. In the spiritual journey, Saguna and Nirguna meditation are like the right and left feet. When you worship a form of the Lord, bear in mind the underlying formless aspect. Remember that God’s Glory can never be contained through words or forms of worship. Similarly, during the Nirguna meditation, do not lose faith or diminish the majesty or glory that the Form carries. The final step, however, must be the auspicious right foot, the Nirguna aspect.

| 求道者往往会心想：从哪一种观点来看上帝，比较好、比较真实：Saguna（有形、有相、有属性）的观点，还是Nirguna（无形、无相、无属性）的观点？要明白，二者之间，犹如冰之于水。水虽无形，但以其容器为形。水不异冰，冰不异水。同样的，前述两种膜拜方式，等无差别。在修行旅途上，Saguna冥想和Nirguna冥想犹如左右腿。在做有形有相的修行时，不要忘了上帝无形无相的一面，要记得，上帝的荣耀，语言无法道尽，上帝的殊胜，文字无法接近。同样的，在做Nirguna冥想时，要有信心，上帝有了‘相’、有了属性、名号，并无损其庄严、殊胜和荣耀。不过，最后踏出的那一步，必须是那吉祥的右腿，那Nirguna的方式。

To worship God as immanent in every atom or cell in the body is the highest form of worship.
