Beyond the Ego:
                    The Discovery of Divine Love


        Divine Love is there always in all  its intensity, a formidable
        power. But most people — ninety-nine percent — do not feel
        anything at all! What they feel of it is exclusively in propor-
        tion to what they are, to their capacity of receiving. Imagine,
        for instance, that you are bathing in an atmosphere all vibrant
        with divine Love — you are not at all aware of it. Sometimes,
        very rarely, for a few seconds there is suddenly the feeling of
        “something”. Then you say, “Oh, divine Love came to me!”
        What a joke! It is just that you were simply, for some reason
        or other, just a little open, so you felt it. But it is there, always,
        like the divine Consciousness. It is the same thing, it is there,
        all the time, in its full intensity; but one is not even aware
        of it; or else in this way, spasmodically: suddenly one is in a
        good state, so one feels something and says, “Oh, the divine
        Consciousness, divine Love have turned to me, have come to
        me!” It is not at all like that. One has just a tiny little open-
        ing, very tiny, at times like a pinhead, and naturally that force
        rushes in. For it is like an active atmosphere; as soon as there
        is a possibility of being received, it is received. But this is so
        for all divine things. They are there, only one does not receive
        them, for one is closed up, blocked, one is busy with other
        things most of the time. Most of the time one is full of one-
        self. So, as one is full of oneself, there is no place for anything
        else. One is very actively (laughing) busy with other things.
        One is filled with things, there is no place for the Divine.
            But He is there.
            It is like all the wonders that are there around you; you do
        not see them. Do you see them?... No. Sometimes, one mo-
        ment when you are just a tiny bit more receptive, or else when
