Today’s Yoga Nugget:
What Is God?
The moment you think you’ve defined God, you’ve defined something lesser than God.
God is beyond human comprehension.
God is the Absolute ~
Pure consciousness.
God is Infinite love
not a feeling to be understood,
but a state of being.
God is beyond primordial nature
the world of matter, energy, and form.
Beyond words.
Beyond thought.
Beyond depiction.
Many names point; none contain.
Until God is directly experienced,
we have information about God
not knowledge of God.
The wisest speak with humility
not because they know less,
but because they have experienced
the incomprehensible.
The ancient sages gave way
to what cannot be defined:
Neti, neti.
Not this. Not this.
Not because God is nothing—
but because nothing you can name
is enough to contain God.
॥ बृहदारण्यक उपनिषद् २.३.६ ॥
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 2.3.6
“Not this, not this. For there is nothing beyond this.”
1 Corinthians 13:12
“For now we see through a glass, darkly… but then face to face.”
