If a lamp is kept burning in a room,
it may go out when winds blow in from the open windows.
The sense organs are the windows
and when they are open, the lamp of
the Divine Name will not burn steadily.
So keep the outgoing senses closed
to the influences that distract, and
concentrate on the Name of the Lord and
its beauty and sweetness.
By simply shouting 'I am God', you
cannot become God; develop the qualifies
of Divinity like Universal Love, absence of attachment, etc.
Then, you will be entitled to assert "Shivoham",
for you will have no ego then!
