Why is it meaningless to argue and debate about the existence of God? Bhagawan lovingly explains using simple examples.

You see a plane zooming in the sky; someone tells you that it is flown by a pilot, but you refuse to believe it because you do not see him from where you are. Is this correct? You must go into the plane to see the pilot; you cannot deny his existence, standing on the ground. You have to guess that the plane must have a pilot. So too seeing the Universe, you have to guess the existence of God, not deny Him because you are not able to see him. People do not believe in God, but they believe in newspapers and the news they publish about things they do not see or cannot see. They believe what their ears hear, more than what their eyes see or minds experience. People argue and discuss, at the slightest mention of God. They think they are superior enough for that. The Divine can be known only by those who know the signs, the characteristics, and the special excellences, through a study of the scriptures. Do not cast aspersions against the path of God or against the Divine.
