Atharva Veda God Quotations

Sickness afflicts those who commit sins; God Himself sits as the Judge.

Sing the Glories of God each and every day; your afflictions shall be dispelled, and you shall be saved, my humble friend.

If only he had known the truth, all that grief could have been avoided. So too, until you know that all are altars where the name God is installed and all are moved and motivated by the Grace of the self-same God, you are afflicted by hate and pride; once you know it and experience it, you are full of Love and reverence to all.

God is one but the ways to reach Him are many.

God is naturally pervading all places. Sometimes He is hidden, and sometimes He is revealed; thus God has made the world of His making. He Himself wakes us from sleep. No one can estimate His value, although everyone has tried, over and over again, to describe Him.

GOD is all-powerful; God is everywhere; God is all knowing. To adore such a formidable limitless principle, man spends a few minutes out of the 24 hours and uses a minute idol, image or picture! It is indeed ridiculous; it is practically futile. Adore Him so long as you have breath and so long as you are conscious. Have no other thought than God, have no other aim than knowing His command; no other activity than translating that command into action. That is what is meant by Surrender. Surrender yourself unto Him.

God has not made any man wholly bad or wholly good; your likes and dislikes are inducing you to label them as such.

GOD too is a reality, ever present in us and in every being; but we miss Him, as we miss the movement of the earth.

God protects the virtuous ones and fulfill their wishes. He guides us, just like a guardian and prevents us from going astray.

GOD is the source of all Love; Love God, Love the World as the vesture of God, no more and no less. Through Love, you can merge in the Ocean of Love.

Repent for all the wrongs done and resolve not to repeat the mistake; then God will extend His grace.

People have become blind having lost the two eyes called faith; just because one cannot see, is God not present? May be, not for some but for others He is (present).

Man is, they say, a monkey that has lost its tail; well, he must lose many more attributes of the monkey before he is entitled to call himself Man. He must dedicate his thought, word and deed to God and surrender to His Will. Then only is this animal entitled to become a Man in whom the Divine is enshrined.

The almighty God reveals his presence through Nature or in other words it can also be said that Nature is the 'visible' part of God and in the same manner vice versa is also true....both are inseparable...each being the extension of other. There is no distinction between the two and one is absorbed in the other.

Utter the name of God; it acts like a spark, which can burn into ash a big hill of cotton! All evil thoughts, wicked plans and plots will disappear like fog before the Sun when the Name of God is remembered sincerely.

When God becomes merciful, He leads you to meet the True Guru; all peace is in the Name of the Lord.

YOU have come here to learn and practice detachment. Get wet in the rain, while engaged in serving others. It does not matter if death comes while serving; do not pause; if you are so determined, God will not allow it to approach you.

Those, unto whom You give Your consolation, God - pain does not even approach them. Says Nanak, I have found that Guru, who has shown me the Perfect, Supreme Lord God. This human body is so difficult to obtain; it is only obtained by great good fortune.

The Supreme Lord God is Merciful to the meek; meditating in remembrance on Him, peace is obtained.

PRAYER for some benefit or gain should not be addressed to God, for it means that God waits until He is asked! Surrender to Him; He will deal with you as He feels best and it will be the best for you.

Adoration of God has to be through one name and one form; but, that should not limit your loyalty to that particular province only.

A devotee, who spends his time in austerities has nothing to worry about as God fulfills all his needs.

YOUR devotion to God is best expressed by achieving the control of the senses. For the senses rush towards the temporary and the tawdry; and they foul the heart.

THE Universe is seen; it can be learnt about; it can be experienced and enjoyed. But God is unseen. He has to be inferred through His handiwork.  So too, Society to which social service is rendered, cannot be seen as such.

DO not lay the blame on Godhead, as you are prone to do. When everything goes right you say that God has come close to you; when something goes wrong you say that God has deserted you and gone far away! He does not move far or near.

Do not go about proclaiming that you are a sect, distinct and separate from those who adore God in other Forms and Names; thereby, you are limiting the very God whom you are extolling.

Do not cage God in a picture frame,Do not confine him in an idol,He is all forms; He is all Names.

Do not be under the delusion that God is somewhere and you have to search for Him; God is in you.

Even when the stony cliff echoes your voice and responds when you cry, will not the Softest, Sweetest, Love-filled Heart of God respond? When there is no response, infer that there is something wanting in the cry; perhaps, the cry is hollow, insincere, mere play-acting set to a pattern, addressed to someone alien to oneself, taken to be far away and distant as a tyrant or task master.

The beggar begs for Your Name, O Lord and Master; God is contained deep within the nucleus of each and every heart. Slave Nanak has entered His Sanctuary; no one returns from Him empty-handed.

A PERSON might appear poor, distressed, and depressed to ordinary mortals; he might not have the exterior demonstration of devotion, but God could be ever installed in his heart, guiding and guarding him. He might be doing all acts as acts of worship to the God residing in his heart.
