Information we get from Bhagavad-gītā, that God is sitting within your heart. That is a fact. Not only within your heart, my heart, the animal's heart—everyone, sarva-bhūtānāṁ. Sarva-bhūtānāṁ means "Of all living entities." It is not that simply God is sitting within human body's heart, but He is sitting in everybody's heart.

This body, this is also a machine, and it has been described in the Bhagavad-gītā as a machine: yantrārūḍhāni māyayā.

<div class="quote_verse">
:īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ
:hṛd-deśe 'rjuna tiṣṭhati
:bhrāmayan sarva-bhūtāni
:yantrārūḍhāni māyayā 
:([[Vanisource:BG 18.61 (1972)|BG 18.61]])
</div>

The meaning of this verse is īśvaraḥ the Supreme Lord, God, is sitting within the heart of all living entities. He is there within your heart, within my heart. The yoga system means to find out where is the Lord is sitting within my heart. That is perfection of yoga.

So the information we get from Bhagavad-gītā, that God is sitting within your heart. That is a fact. Not only within your heart, my heart, the animal's heart—everyone, sarva-bhūtānāṁ. Sarva-bhūtānāṁ means "Of all living entities." It is not that simply God is sitting within human body's heart, but He is sitting in everybody's heart.

<div class="quote_verse">
:īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ
:hṛd-deśe 'rjuna tiṣṭhati
:bhrāmayan . . . 
:([[Vanisource:BG 18.61 (1972)|BG 18.61]])
</div>

And He is causing the transmigration of the soul, yantrārūḍhāni, sitting on the machine of this body. So both the living entity and God is sitting within this machine.

(aside) You cannot sit cross-legged.

So within your body, within my body, and everyone's body—even an ant's body, elephant's body, tree's body, fish's body, all bodies. There are different types of body. Don't think that the lower animals—birds, bees, trees, plants, insects—they are different from us. No. They are also the same living entity, but in different dress.
