If you come and fish alongside me, you will stand in a warm estuary full of acres of returning salmon while the ocean waves lap against your chest. You will see the sun begin to peak with a vibrant hue above the island mountains, shining down on the life below, feeding it with its ancient energy. You will see the heron peak its head below the surface, searching for breakfast, as its majestic halo casts out gloriously in the morning air. The gulls will be the only sound you hear besides the waves crashing--those waves which pull and tug at you, luring your consciousness into an eternal hiatus; and as the bright salmon jump in front of your eyes, a stone's throw away, you will truly get lost in that moment. You will see the life and energy around you, and perhaps, if fortunate, understand that you are a part of it all in a way our minds can only comprehend as "divine". It doesn't take church, a hymn or even psilocybin...we are from nature, a part of it, and we can rejoice in this harmony as easily as dominate it.

A knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, our perceptions of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty, which only in their most primitive forms are accessible to our minds: it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute true religiosity. In this sense, and only this sense, I am a deeply religious man... I am satisfied with the mystery of life's eternity and with a knowledge, a sense, of the marvelous structure of existence -- as well as the humble attempt to understand even a tiny portion of the Reason that manifests itself in nature. - Albert Einstein

Its common. Pictures invoke it. Being in nature invokes it. Taking psychedelic substances invokes it. We feel "it" for a reason (I suggest), and we have forgotten that reason, moving forward aimlessly without it.
