The Spiritual Import of the Mahabharata and the Bhagavadgita : 15-10.
Chapter 15: The Rarest of Devotees-10.
Any kind of counterfeit attitude, whether it is religious or otherwise, cannot touch the reality of the Supreme Being.
Hence, the diplomatic adjustments that we make in human society cannot be transferred to the realm of the Absolute, and diplomacy will not work there.
There is a heart-to-Heart communion—the heart speaks to the Heart of the universe.
The soul communes with the Soul, and that which is the deepest in us enters into the bosom of That which is deepest in the whole cosmos.
This is the consummation of religion.
That is why what is interior is respected and regarded as of greater value than anything that is exterior.
The deeper we go, the more real we become, and the more valuable is the expression.
Hence, feelings are considered to be the greatest expression of devotion.
Thus it is that God is considered to be a recogniser of feelings rather than of material offerings.
