    Suppose you identify yourself as a scientist. One day you realize that you have to cross the domain of science to find truth. Will you let go of your identity as a scientist? No. We tend to cling to our identity. We twist the truth to preserve our identity. It's true for everyone. Someone who identifies himself as a Shiva devotee would rather preserve his identity than merge with Shiva.

    When people see a beautiful flower bloomed in deep forest, they want to capture it in their little box and take it home. They try to fill the ocean in their little bucket. They are not ready to merge in the ocean. They are not ready to let go of themselves. As a result, spirituality and religion becomes just another circus.

    There are two stages to find God: (1) Arrive at your own theory of everything, a theory that explains everything. It can be a devotee's simple theory too. (2) Let go of the theory and the one holding the theory. If you fully believe in your theory, you can let go of it. If you have doubts, you will defend it and cling to it.
