iintelligence to put things together
You need not go outside to look for anything; all that you need has been given to you from the very beginning. But things are upside-down. It is like a jigsaw puzzle; there is a solution to it -- just a little intelligence... It is like a room where the furniture is put upside-down and the chandelier is on the floor and the chair is hanging in place of the chandelier and all the paintings are upside-down. It looks crazy but a little intelligence and you can put things where they belong.
And once this discrimination about where a thing is needed has come to you, you can sort out the mess inside. And the same things which were making the mess make a beautiful cosy house to live in. And when there is light there is warmth -- and warmth is another name of love, another name of creativity, another name of prayer. And the person who is full of light can help many others to become lighted.
It is not accidental that we call this state enlightenment -- one is just pure light -- but whenever a man of pure light comes into contact with somebody who is not yet lighted, a process is triggered. He becomes a catalytic agent.

Divyo means divine -- that's the seventh aspect of bliss. It is the most divine experience in life, or maybe it is the only divine experience in life. All other experiences which look divine are bound to have something of bliss in them. Love looks divine but it is only divine because it shares a certain space with bliss. There is some overlapping with bliss. Truth looks divine -- again there is the same overlapping. Creativity is divine but again there is the same overlapping. Wherever you find any proof for more than matter, for something higher than matter, then one thing is certain: bliss must be present there.
There is no god as is being taught in the churches and the temples and the schools. It is just a cock-and-bull story, manufactured for childish people. But there are very few people who are not childish, there are very few people who are really mature, hence a mature religion is non-existential. All religions are childish. Worshipping a statue is childish, praying to some god as if he is a person somewhere above in the sky is childish. There is nobody to listen and nobody to answer; you are simply in a monologue but you can think it is a dialogue. All prayers are monologues, but one can believe. Belief as such is childish.
The mature person wants to know, not to believe; his whole effort is for knowledge, he wants to experience on his own. He is not ready to believe because some guy two thousand years ago experienced god. Who knows whether he really experienced god or was just hallucinating? Who knows whether he was really an experienced person or was just trying to exploit people and their gullibility? And who knows whether he really existed or not? -- there is no guarantee.
Unless you yourself experience it, god does not exist. And when you experience it you always experience godliness, not god. And that godliness comes as an experience of bliss, tremendous bliss, great ecstasy.
