You cannot see God or the Light with these eyes. Vedic sages have called it anir vachaniya—indescribable. But then, paradoxically, God or the Light is so knowable if you just go within.

      Ego is a barrier between you and your truth. Conceptions are fictitious curtains. You do not need speed to know the truth, even light speed. You get into energy and Consciousness. It is easy to know the creation once you are egoless—very easy. You will not have to tax your brain. Surrender your ego unto your Self, unto your God, and you will know the whole truth, here and now, wherever you are. There is no greater science than this. Some centuries back, people were executed for saying that the Earth rotates around the sun. The Earth was believed to be the center of the universe. Sages call this egoistic. Every person thinks, “I am important.” It is the same phenomenon. There is no center of the universe. Five hundred years from now humanity will see the truth of it. Once you have made a center you are making a circumference, and you are creating a limit to the universe, which is absurd. Where is the center? You and I are centers. Wherever you are is a center. Between you and me it is all-pervading Consciousness and Light. Where is the center of that Light?
      When we say that man is the highest species created by God Almighty, humble sages say that is ego speaking. You do not know the universe, whether there are other beings or creations. Why are you assuming we are the highest creation? And if we are God’s highest creation, why are we miserable, diseased, lamenting, complaining and mortal? If we are made in God’s image, then He is also miserable. With all of our poverty, diseases, wars, battles, failures, disappointments, depressions, nervous breakdowns, wanting and not having—all of this cannot be the best creation. Where is that eternal bliss and peace? Where is that immortality we talk about? That must be the center. The truth is, there is no center because there is no limit. Infinity and eternity have no center; it is everywhere—pervading Consciousness.
      Any conception has to have ego existent. And if ego is existent, you cannot know the truth. God is within you. Your Allah, your Christ, your Buddha, your Krishna is within you. If you know yourself, you know everything. But you cannot know yourself while retaining the ego. Ego is actually the basis for whatever miseries we experience. Sages have very clearly said, “Ego is the cause of all problems.” Trying to solve problems without giving up ego is an exercise in futility.
