But we do not feel this, earlier people felt it but did not have the knowledge, nowadays people have the knowledge but lack the capacity to feel. The union cannot be understood unless we learn to feel. The language of feeling has to be learnt. Don’t try to bring in whatever little experience during your meditation to fit into our knowledge process but try to understand it as it is. Try to appreciate a flower as it is. By trying to separate the petals and analysing it we may gain botanical knowledge but that will not give us understanding. The beauty of a flower lies in the way it is. The beauty of existence lies in the way we are. Don’t try to feel ashamed in front of somebody else, because God has created each one of us and He is in each one of us. When we know the purpose of the sacrifice He has done, the happiness He wanted us to have then we understand the ‘Sun’ that shines everyday. That is the nature of life. The nature of life is sacrifice and through sacrifice be happy. “Ishavasyamidham sarvam yat kincha jagatyam
