________________ We feel we cannot spare the time to ask ourselves these questions. But the answer will come to that man in whom the lamp of conscience is ever-burning and who has realised the divinity within himself. One cannot acquire this experience all of a sudden. It requires a period of utter tranquillity, when one can enter into a deep introspection and can ask oneself: “Do I allow myself to be governed by my instincts only, by my intellect only, or by my conscience? Is the motivating force behind my actions instinctual, intellectual or moral?” When a man learns to question himself along these lines, he will come to the realisation that in every individual, divinity lies dormant. It merely requires some effort to awaken it, and in the dawn of that awakening he will realise God.
