Devotee: Beloved Bhagavan, what is God? What is the divine? What is the relationship between man and God?

Sri Bhagavan: Man and God are two ends of the same spectrum. If the cells of the human body are individual human beings, then the human body which the cells constitute is God. There is no human body without the cells. Nor are there cells without the human body. There is no God without human beings and no human beings without God. The relationship between man and God is that of parent and child.
