Once Vivekananda went to Swami Ramakrishna Paramahamsa and asked him, “Have you seen God?” “Yes”, said Sri Ramakrishna. “In what form?”, asked Vivekananda. Ramakrishna replied, “I am seeing Him just as I am seeing you”. “Why then, am I unable to see Him?” Ramakrishna explained that if he yearned for God with the same intensity with which he was yearning for many other things, he too would experience God. Ramakrishna said that people shed tears for relations, wealth and many other aspects, but how many shed tears for God? Ramakrishna advised Vivekananda to yearn for God with all his heart and soul. God is then bound to manifest Himself to him. If you are keen to experience the Divine, you must devote yourself to the Divine. People undertake various troubles to achieve wealth, relations, position, and power. If they devote a small fraction of that time to thoughts of God, they would definitely experience freedom from the fear of death.
