In Serch of God
5. God-Oriented Life
~ 33 ~
For one who discovers God, the entire universe
becomes an open book of God for him. Every leaf of
a tree becomes a page of the divine book.
When he sees the sun, he feels as if God is lighting
His heavenly torch so that he may read His book
clearly. The Universe becomes, as it were, a
supernal university and he its student.
Finding God is to find his centre of Love. Man by
birth is a seeker of a Supreme Being who is far
above him, who is free from all limitations and who
may form the centre of his feelings, in short, a Being
after finding whom the grown man becomes as
satisfied as a child after being held in the embrace
of his mother.
This discovery of God saves one from regarding
something other than God as God and mistakenly
and unrealistically thinking it to be the answer to
the urge inherent in his nature. The discovery of
God is to fulfill his or her real urge to find God.
And the failure to discover God means failing to
find that which is man’s greatest need.
