In English
A sage sat in meditation, closing his eyes, in order to realise God. God Himself came to him in the form of a small boy and asked him, “Grandfather, what are you doing?” The sage replied, “My dear, I am trying to know God.” “Have you come to know Him?” The sage replied, “Not yet.” The boy left the place. The sage did not realise that the boy was none other than God because he was contemplating on the formless aspect of God. Similarly, many people ignore the direct evidence of God’s presence and look for indirect evidences.
