Divine & existence
Ramakrishna prahamahmsa use to say this story incident to explain it to his disciples. Once an elephant was running in a street behind it the elephant wala shouting and coming that the elephant got mad so everyone run away from it. In that two sannyasis also standing before the elephant. One sannyasi ran away the other one doesn't move thinking that if divine is present everywhere it is also present in this elephant. So he didn't move. And finally got hurt by the elephant.
If everyone carries the divine the elephant wala is also should be listened, the voice coming from inside to save himself also should be listened. But he refused to listen them.
By this we can understand that divinity or divine should be realized as an existential. We have to understand it in depth, inside. Not just like as a thought superficialy.
Then we can see the existence, the divine everywhere in depth, when we go deeper. These two words are similar divine and existence.
