Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being.

BY the study of different religions we find that in essence they are one. 

Like me or Hate me,
both are in my favor,
If you like me I am in your Heart,
If you hate me I am in your mind. 

Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being.
