These facts remind man of his state of extreme helplessness and the state of Omnipotence of God. When pondered upon, such discoveries reveal a treasure trove provided by the universe to attain a higher realization of God. Realization of God is that man acknowledges his limitations while he discovers the limitlessness of God. Realization of God, on one hand, is that, man acknowledges his limitations while, on the other hand, he discovers the limitlessness of God. The thrilling state which is produced within man as a result of this discovery is called, realization of God. Whoever attains this realization of God, for him it is as if the gates of blissfulness have been opened in this world as well as in the Hereafter. Fortunate is the man of whom it will be said in the Hereafter: Enter Paradise from whichever of the gates you like. After today there is neither fear for you nor any grief. o Vicissitudes of Life What is required from man is that when he is granted power he should not suffer from the psychology of pride and arrogance. And when man finds himself in a state of subjugation he should not fall prey to negative psychology.
