“Your own Spirit, which is the image of God or the Cosmic Soul, acts according to the Cosmic Will. So if you are asking to know God’s will, you are asking your own conscience. In that case, your will is: Let Thy will be done, not my egoistic will. In other words, follow your conscience, not your ego. Ego is your will; the will of the conscience is God’s will. Egos differ from person to person; but the conscience is the same, in everybody, in everything.”
-Sri Swami Satchidananda, excerpted from The Golden Present
