The little space in the heart

Chandogya Upanishad says: 

OM.  In the center of the castle of Brahman, our own body, there is a small shrine in the form of a lotus-flower, and within can be found a small space.  We should find who dwells there, and we should want to know him.

And if anyone asks, "Who is he who dwells in a small shrine in the form of a lotus flower in the center of the castle of Brahman?  Whom should we want to find and to know?" we can answer:

"The little space within the heart is as great as this vast universe.  The heavens and the earth are there, and the sun, and the moon, and the stars; fire and lightning and winds are there; and all that now is and all that is not: for the whole universe is in Him and He dwells within our heart."

This reminds me or Gurbani's "Man Tu Jot Swaroop Hai, Apna Roop Pachhaan".  Remember you are from the light. Recognize your divine self. 

Dear self,

Embrace your divine essence and believe in yourself. Recognize the spark of the Divine within, nurture your potential, and embody divine qualities. Face challenges with strength and emerge victorious on the path of righteousness. Control your mind, cultivate positivity, and let your light shine. Share happiness, serve others, and leave a meaningful legacy. Understand the interconnectedness of forces within and outside yourself. Embrace diversity and flow with life's rhythm. Seek the positive in every situation, for they shape your growth. Merge your light with the Supreme Light through spiritual wisdom and realize your divine presence. Be blessed!
