Hare Krsna Mataji,
PAMHO.
Have you ever experienced this - taht for no explicible reason, you do something and that turns out to be the best thing to do under the circumstances with the benefit of hindsight? That is paramatma in our heart guiding us.
It is mentioned in the purports of Gita that aatma and paramatma can be understood with the example of 2 birds on a tree - one enjoying the fruits of joy and distress on the branch and the other a silent observer. When the first bird moves to the next brach, the second bird follows. Unless the first bird turns towards the second bird and seeks guidance, the second bird does not guide. Depending on the level of surrender of the 1st bird, the 2nd bird guides.
I hope I have been able to solve.
Haribol,
Your servant,
Rashmi
