The Antaryamin, in terms of Hindu philosophy, is related to the "inner-self", the "inner-controller" or the "inner-guidance" that exists in a person and itself manifests on an intuitive way to the one manifesting it. It recalls a teacher or a guru that resides within and once it is manifested - for a higher context of knowledge guidance - usually after one summons or prays for it, the Antaryamin comes to help. In some cases, the Antaryamin is asked to be manifested in order to resolve non-intellectual issues, also performing miracles to the one asking.
On the Hindu scriptures, we find the concept of the Antaryamin as the Inner Controller [1] after the building of the elementary concepts regarding a deity or an ego - on a unity way - of which is controlling, somehow to a compared intelligence, the universe and all that is. This intelligence may also refer to what is called consciousness or awareness that is far superior, hence capable of doing superior things.[2]
