How Visible Is The Invisible?
*The invisible forces are more powerful and essential to life and salvation, 
Invisible gravitational force ('g').*

If tomorrow morning you hurry out of your house and find the pavement  
under your feet gently moving like a conveyor belt, quickly, to keep abreast  
with your house you will be compelled to walk. Suddenly, the ground speed  
doubles, you have to break into a run. A greater acceleration, a swifter run  
and to your unthought horror it climbs to an incredible 1000 mph. Man's  
over-estimated maximum speed is 25 mph and say you manage the  
impossible 1000 but then a blasting wind of 66,600 mph hits you head on.  
Will you still maintain balance? Who or what can survive the savage impact  
of 66,600 mph. It is amply capable of stripping the earth bare of all buildings,  
nature and life and can certainly send the puny 'us' spinning into space, dead. 
This is what would happen if there was no gravity! The earth rotates on its  
axis at the equatorial speed of 1000 mph and orbits the sun at 66,600 mph.  
We remain safe on earth, thanks to gravitational force ('g'). But who has seen  
little 'g'? No one. Yet, does anyone doubt its existence?

Before the invention of telescopes, the early astronomers were puzzled by the  
erratic orbit of Uranus. Many dismissed it perfunctorily. However, one  
adamant French astronomer, Leverrier, postulated the existence of another  
planet beyond it. He was right. Two more planets were discovered - Neptune  
and Pluto and it was observed that at certain periods the very close presence  
of Neptune ensued this freakish change in Uranus' orbit. As intelligent beings  
it would be foolish of us to refute these inter-planetary force fields on the  
account of their invisibility. 
Sometimes things invisible are more important and crucial in life than things  
visible. Man needs three things for survival: food, shelter and clothing.  
Naturally, a deprivation of any of the three, creates a calamity. But even in a  
majestic mansion, adorned with fabulous clothes and on a lavishly feasted  
stomach try surviving only five minutes without air! Air is invisible but that  
does not stop it from being the most important. It is our vital life support. We  
take air for granted because it is free and unseen. How many times need we  
remind ourselves that it is not the lofty sails but the unseen wind that moves  
the ship. 
From wind, gravity to the magical electromagnetic waves of the remote
control world, all are invisible and will forever remain unseen However,  
intelligence and inference makes them as clear as the bright sun. The only  
proof of invisible forces lies hidden in a deeper delving into and experiencing  
their effects. The following is a real account of a man who, through  
confidence, inference and perseverance unraveled the ultimate source of a  
mysterious force that saved him in the First World War. 
What Saved Him? 
**Prof. Ronald Nixon**, a brilliant graduate of Cambridge University was a  
fighter pilot during the First World War. His job was to bombard the enemy  
territory. One day, while on a reconnoitering mission he sensed half a dozen  
fighters roaring low as his plane veered off to the left. 
A force was pulling him, the sheer magnitude of which confounded him. But  
it was too incredible to be doubted. Confidence reappeared at the controls as  
he returned back to base. He alighted briskly to be told by tension-taut faces  
that he had done splendidly well to return back promptly as a number of  
enemy fighter planes would have blown him to smithereens. A wave of  
thankful delight filled him. While his friends crowded him in cheers Ronald's  
mind stole aloof, isolated in mystery, far far away into an unknown world  
wrestling with an unanswered question. What had saved him so  
miraculously? What could have been that mysterious force? 
Straight after the war, he left the air-force, shunned his professorship and  
shrugged off all materialistic interests to embark upon an exhaustive search  
for that force. It was the spiritual world he entered, a world with unending  
horizons and lasting visions. Finally in India, he surrendered at the feet of a  
'guru' and embraced a fresh life and the name of
 **Yogi Krishnaprem**.

Through long hours of devotion, meditation and service he enjoyed visions of God and  
in his later life wrote of his experiences with the invisible energies of God. 
The Surest Way To See God 
The most essential ingredient in the spiritual world is faith. No matter how  
weather-beaten you struggle, faith should always flourish. At the end of the  
Second World War the Allied forces as they swept across Germany found  
these words scratched on a crumbling wall by a victim of the Holocaust: 
I believe in the Sun - even when it does not shine 
I believe in Love - even when it is not shown 
I believe in God - even when he does not speak. 
However there is one sure and absolute route to seeing and communicating
with God. A genuine aspirant, carrier of unswerving faith and unflagging  
determination, if he surrenders unto the enlightened spiritual guru, the vision  
and knowledge of God is revealed to him. A classic example is Narendra  
Nath, a brilliant young brain burdened with a thousand doubts. He questioned  
**Ramakrishna Paramhansa**. 
"Have you seen God?" 
"Yes," came the reply 
"How?" 
"As I see you." 
That was it. Enough to cure his agnostic deformity. The short answers  
sparked across a divine impulse of honesty and surety. A fresh flower of faith  
sprung alive within him, which he plucked and offered to Ramakrishna, his  
spiritual Guru from thereafter. The young man was to become **Swami  
Vivekanand**. 
Thus to see and experience God one must seek out an enlightened Guru and  
implicitly serve him. And today there are thousands of people who  
confidently testify of having touched God through 
**His Divine Holiness Pramukh Swami Maharaj**.
