Nothing in the world can bring us happiness and satisfaction except divine wisdom. All other things which seem to suffice our needs will show their importance for a moment, but after that moment has passed there will be the same longing. It is only in divine wisdom that our life's purpose is fulfilled. The basis of mysticism is to be found in that saying of the Bible, "Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven, and all these things will be added unto you." Thus the search of the mystic is for that kingdom, for God, and in that search what does he find? In the search for God he finds his self.
