also bear in mind that in the kingdom of God, there is enormous importance to the
universal laws of nature which are fundamentally part and parcel of the automatic, self

regulatory, natural systematised order that we witness everywhere in the universe. Man
must therefore live in tune with these universal laws of nature, if he wishes to be happy,

prosperous and successful in his life. Here, the following important doctrine of
JEEVANVIDYA is worth nothing.

"God or Cosmic Life Force neither punishes nor favours any person, but it is Man
who curses or blesses himself in response to the good or evil actions he performs, in

accordance with the universal laws of nature.''
It will thus be realised that Man experiences success or failure, happiness or

sorrow, contentment or dissatisfaction, totally according to the universal laws of nature
in response to his actions. Briefly, if Man desires to experience a successful, prosperous,

beautiful and happy life, he must live life in tune with the universal laws of nature which
play a vital role in Man's life. Similarly, Man must make sincere efforts to impart bliss

within him to others, through actions at the three levels of thoughts, speech and deeds,
so that the bliss imparted to others, would come back to him like a boomerang in a

multiplied and magnified form. If Man follows this guidance sincerely, he can attain the
cherished goal of a beautiful life in the form of a successful, prosperous, peaceful and

happy life. JEEVANVIDYA therefore preaches that,
"The welfare and well being of human society is in living life with the sole objective

of universal peace for the entire Mankind on the realistic basis that "God is one, human
race is one, human mind is one, human religion is one and human culture is one.''

In this context JEEVANVIDYA clearly states,
"The satisfaction that Man experiences in idol or symbol worship is insignificant in

comparison to peace and bliss that he enjoys in worshipping the formless and all
pervading God.''

Worship of formless God as is recommended by the sages and saints is of two
types. The first type is the worship of Divine Power within, which is endowed with pure

consciousness and bliss. The second type, is the worship of Divine Power that manifests
in the form of entire cosmos. The worship of Divine power thus consists in living one's life

in communion with the Divinity within and also being ever conscious that this very
Divinity is pervading all over the entire cosmos. In other words, the true worship of God

is to be ever conscious of the systematised order of God which exists everywhere in the
