“Man does not achieve union with God as a drop of water might find unity with the ocean. Man attains divine union by progressive reciprocal spiritual communion.” 1:7.2 (31.2)
The journey toward divine connection is not about losing oneself in a vast, indistinct whole. Instead, it is a deeply personal and evolving relationship—an exchange that honors individuality while drawing the soul closer to its source. Unlike a drop dissolving into an ocean, the human spirit does not disappear into God but grows through conscious, mutual communion.
This process is dynamic and relational. It unfolds through trust, intention, and spiritual receptivity. As a person reaches toward the divine with sincerity and openness, the divine presence responds with guidance, love, and inspiration. Each step forward is met with a corresponding divine embrace, reinforcing the reality of a living relationship rather than a mere blending of essence.
Through this progressive interaction, true spiritual union is forged—not by losing identity, but by enhancing it in the light of divine purpose. The individual becomes more, not less, in relationship with the eternal. This path of reciprocal communion affirms the sacred dignity of the person and the intentional nearness of the divine.
