Jesus said, "If your leaders say to you, 'Look, the (Father's) kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the (Father's) kingdom is within you and it is outside you.

When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will understand that you are children of the living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty."

Gospel of Thomas.

the (Father's) kingdom is within you and it is outside you This is very interesting point to me as a hindu.

“Be still, and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10)"

That is exactly the vedantic teaching of inaction - stillness (of body and mind)

I beleive the Christians interpret "still" as "weak" or "lowly"?
