God alone can be within; no one else can. There is a person who claims to be your friend; can this friend of yours be within you? Worldly friends are external, but your true friend is inside; that is God! He alone can be both inside as well as outside, and He has the right to be so! Your heart is a single-seat sofa, and there is place for only one. That one seat must be reserved for God. If you lead your life filled with this feeling, not only would your life be always happy but, in addition, you would be able to spread that happiness all around you.
