33. Imagining

Meditate upon the ray of light that pierces through a window on a sunny day—and imagine how that ray exists engulfed within its source, the sun. So too is the cosmos a nothingness absorbed within its Source, the Infinite Light.

Imagine the entire universe as a stream of conscious thought, and imagine how a single thought exists in its place of birth, a place before words, before things, where there is only One.

We created beings cannot perceive the Source with our fleshly eyes, and so we see a world. But to the Source there is no being, no entity, only the Infinite Light.

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

Our source
G-d, there are no words that even begin to describe Him, nor words to describe my love for Him. I am absolutely awestruck by Him every day I am awakened and my soul is returned to me for another day on His planet.

everything is God's thoughts
Everything in creation is a figment of God's imagination. He has continuously kept us in His thoughts and He will continue to keep us in His thoughts. Boy, are we all dependant on Him. Hum, isn't that just the way He wants it???
