You have no need to run about in search of God, for you are yourself God. God resides in your heart. All this is enveloped by God. All this is God. All beings are God. He is the All-pervasive motive force. Have firm faith in this fact. Like fire in the matchstick, Divinity is latent in man. The fire in the stick becomes manifest when it is struck against the side of the box. So too, when the Jivi (individual) contacts Deva (God), the flame of Jnana sheds the Light of Wisdom. How can one taste the experience of Wisdom? In what form does it emanate? The wise person does not hate anyone: he does not belittle or blame or hurt anyone. What is it that prompts you to love another? The urge to love and be loved is inherent in everyone. So, when you deny love or when you hate, you are hurting not only the person but the Universal Principle, the Divine Nature itself.
