discovery of God

more enlightened he becomes. he becomes involved in it night and day. Thus, he develops a close mental affinity for it. scientific discoveries usually result from the familiarity one develops with a particular subject by fully concentrating on it. a slight allusion is enough for a scientist to grasp a whole topic. discovery is usually a progression from partial truth to an absolute one. such progression is only possible for those who are already engrossed in their subject and have become familiar with every side of it. What is true of scientific discovery is also true of spiritual discovery. God is also a discovery for man. however, only a person engrossed in God can make such a discovery. The discovery of God comes from concentrating on God, seeing with divine vision, and hearing with divine ears. When someone turns away from all else and turns towards God alone, then time and time again will he experience the discovery of God. The sight of the wonders of nature, the study of the history of man, contemplation of one’s being—everything in the world will make him think of God; everything will turn his mind towards the supreme reality. he will see his glory everywhere. only those who abide in God can discover him. discovery of God is a gift that cannot be granted to those attached to other things besides him.
