Behind the meaning of everything.

An ancient man came to God through the existence of the prairie. Today we come to God instead of through the presence of ourselves through the existence of man. Ancient thinkers asked: what is the meaning of the world. They asked about the ultimate cause of the world. The modern man asks how to take possession of the world. Modern man controls the world. He is surrounded not so much by nature itself in life and work but lives mainly amid a world of his own making. In cities, technology, and civilization, he discovers around him not so vividly the traces of God but rather the traces of man’s activity. The sight of this world of ours does not bring man directly to God as living nature once did but brings us to man, the creator of this world. Our questions, therefore, stop primarily at atman. `What is the life of man? And what is beyond this life? There are, it is true, people who pretend not to care. But some people are searching for the meaning of life. Without this meaning, it isn’t easy to live.
Man needs orientation. He requires a goal to work towards. The need to seek the meaning of life is universal in humanity. Caveman sought the meaning of life differently from a later man in Babylon or Egypt. or a thousand years later in Europe. He responded according to the degree of his capacities. We come to God’s existence not because we do not yet know something, not because we cannot yet explain something, but because we know something, and we know it as a necessity. Both need and the desire for fullness lead man to God. Whether man has prospered or failed, he has always felt that he is not closed in himself, that he is open to the world of the spirit.

Man will not change his place in the universe. The need to ask questions and questions about God will not dry up in him. The animal can reach the fulfillment of his desires every day—a handful of grass. Man will never. The animal is satisfied with his sensual life. It is free from problems and free from insecurity. Man as spirit transcends the senses and sensual satisfaction. Man is a seeking being. There is not a single desire in man that is not, beneath the surface, a desire for God. As the stomach wants to be filled with food, the eye with light, the ear with harmony, so the spirit of man reaches out for God. Man is therefore focused on infinity. That cannot be denied. Man wants to overcome every state, every situation. If development has taken place, why should everything end in nothing?
The truth is we always pursue something. We can’t stop at anything. We go from knowledge to knowledge, from message to message, from book to book, from one television program to another, and we go through everything quickly. Nothing satisfies us permanently. As soon as we have achieved something, we are already looking for other possibilities. One goes further and further. Where? In addition, man experiences the uncertainty of his life and, after all, the threat of death. And death is over. Why is there a desire for infinity in a man? But man can secure infinity, eternity. No, not with your abilities. He needs someone to do that. Who? He who is eternal Almighty. And that is only God.
