Experiencing the Presence of God

are in the neighbourhood of God and that He is present before our eyes at every moment. If we see a high-quality machine for the first time, we immediately feel the presence of an expert engineer there. In the same way, if we can see deep into the world and whatever it contains, we will find the ‘presence of God’ at that very moment. The Creator will appear to us in such a way that we will not be able to separate the Creator from the creation. The most outstanding achievement for someone in this world is to begin seeing God, to feel the presence of God near him. If he is indeed alive, he will see God’s light in the sun’s brilliant rays. He will discern reflections of God in the verdant trees. He will experience the touch of God in the softness of the breeze. Then, while prostrating and touching his palms and forehead on the ground, he will experience surrendering his entire existence at the feet of His Lord. God can be seen everywhere in His creation. Therefore, we need to acquire the eyes to see God in His creation.
