Please tell us more about 33 divine impulses within the human body which you mentioned in one of the Upanishads.

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

Yes, see it is one egg and a sperm that got together and made one living cell. Now that one cell has made the eyes, ears, nails, hair, bones and skin, isn't it? These are the divine impulses! It is because of these 33 different things. These 33 Gods are not somewhere out there, they are in our own body and these divine impulses have somewhere become an eye, somewhere become ears, somewhere become the tongue, somewhere it has become the heart, and at another place it has became the liver. It has all happened from that one single cell.
