God Positioning System
Location, position, and presence are the basic requirements to allow the belief of an object to exist. A person needs to know where an object is before they can know what it is, or if the object even exists.
So the question is 'Where is God ?', which is entirely different from 'Where can I find God ?', as the latter forms a quest, whereas the former intrigues curiosity.
"I know God is far away but in reality God is fully at heart
There is the saying that 'God is everywhere'. Which is an ambiguous way of saying that 'God exists where ever we look for him'.
And now this brings up a question, what is 'Seeking' ?
Seeking is the process to answer the question 'Where can I find God ?' and see is the process to answer the question 'Where is God ?'.
Let's think about it like this,
The absolute truth, about the position of God, exists. Therefore we need to do Sadhana (dedicated practice) to obtain this data. But as God exists in Space-time, and the Sadhana will be conditioned by the same Space-time, the result obtained will be in effect of the Space-time. Now, in hypothesis, the absolute truth must be free of all conditions, as a fact. And since it isn't, the truth found is not absolute.
Therefore truly looking for the answer will bring the data to a non-existent point.
Now, this is similar to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, which states that the better we know where a particle is, the less we know about how fast it's going.
There is a limit to how much we can know.
Now we can't expect God to be running around, so we can know it's speed, but speed is just a fundamental property of a particle, in the same way, God's action, i.e Karma is.
Karma is God's action, and how fast God acts is his speed. And Karma is a constant function working on every person, so when we are seeking God, God is still acting on us, therefore we can never truly find God or at least His position.
When a spiritualist, philosopher, or just a mundane human being 'seeks' God, he/she is looking for 'peace' or 'serenity'.
In meditation, it is a common practice to set your mind and heart on a simple, mundane and repetitive task of breathing. It's the inhalation and exhalation that 'lowers your body's energy state'. And it is said that only when pure meditation is achieved, a certain bliss, in the form of a spiritual orgasm is achieved, our mind goes completely blank, and we see God.
It is not only in 'spiritual orgasms' that we see God in.
Dan Brown, the author of the Da Vinci Code, wrote in that very work of his the following-
An actual orgasm could get you closer to God, but in many religions, sex is a sin?
What I'm trying to say is that one must not do penance to see the Almighty, but neither should he bed a woman for enlightenment. You don't need to see God through dedicated action. As you can be graced by His thought while washing the dishes.
You don't need a degree in astrophysics to marvel at the cosmic beauty of the stars, but it can surely help you decipher what you're looking at.
So the question is 'Where is God ?', which is entirely different from 'Where can I find God ?', as the latter forms a quest, whereas the former intrigues curiosity.
"I know God is far away but in reality God is fully at heart
People search Him outside, but he is near, not far"
Kabir, Translated

And now this brings up a question, what is 'Seeking' ?
"Seek, and you shall find."
Mathews, 7:7
Is what you're seeking, found at the end of the seeking, or on the way?
Or does when seeking comes to an end, the seeing truly begins.
