What is divinity? please define it concretely. Then define God. Please make sure you are avoiding a circular definition. You're rejecting the definition that Universe is God on the basis that the definition of these two is not compatible, also you say "the Universe is not divine" the definition of the universe is somewhat clear for me. But I don't know what God is. I really don't know. Please define it. I don't know what divine is either, I use it in my conversations, but I think it's a nonsensical word an does not have any actual referent except our neurons activities.

Or perhaps I didn't sit...cross legged, quietly...for quite long enough, or the right way?Yes some degree of persistence is required before you see the first signs of small transitions in your consciousness. Again I admit I was unclear about it. My bad. BTW, meditation has nothing to do with sitting, although it's recommended for beginners. It's merely a mental process.
