the House from which One cannot be evicted:

"and within the heart there is a little house..." - the House from which One cannot be evicted:
Within the city of Brahman, which is the body, there is the heart, and within the heart there is a little house. This house has the shape of a lotus, and within it dwells that which is sought after, inquired about, and realized. Even so large as the universe outside is the universe within the lotus of the heart. Within it are heaven and earth, the sun, moon, the lightning and the stars. Whatever is in the macrocosm is in this microcosm also. ~ Chandogya Upanishad
