That is a nice reflection at this time, however, I don't think there is any evidence to suggest that MMY is Omnipresent, (Nirvikalpa Samadhi) at best he is "unfathomable" by his own admission, saying as much shortly before he died! What is that supposed to mean? I have NO idea! At any rate, I wish him well and God speed where ever he may be.
