Reality in Tidy Boxes


Based on letters and talks of the Rebbe, Rabbi M. M. Schneerson

Tell me you found G-d in a tidy package, I will tell you that is not G-d, that is Mind.

Tell me you found G-d in the limitless beyond-beyond space, beyond time-that too is not G-d. That too is Mind.

Where the boundless dwells within a bounded space, where darkness shines, where silence sings, where bitterness is sweet and a moment lives forever-there is G-d; there is the essence of all that is real.

Beautifully written and very insightful, especially the last few sentences! Thank you and G-d bless you!

Poetry for deeper appreciation
Yeah I want to comment but I realize I have nothing to say that will not go back to Mind. In other words, yes I think this paradox essentially summarizes all the insights I have gathered about the nature of G-d.

But this once again, sounds a bit like Shiva.
It cannot be helped, the source of all is one -one Mind. It is only in the experience of G-d that the names dissolve and G-d is G-d.

God is not in tidy boxes
So it is for us to experience G-d, but not for us to understand H-m, just his principles/law
