Our beings spring
from God.
We do not possess
our beings
in ourselves.
It is by faith i find
my true being in God.
The power of the intellect
to arrive at union with God
is even less than that of
ascetic techniques.
The relation of faith and reason
is one of the perennial
problems encountered
by the philosopher
and theologian.
How far a man trusts his senses
and to what extent can he trust
his intellect to discern reality?
Yes Tony. My attitude is much the same. Reasoning scientifically and the emancipation one must feel to be mystical are two completely different worlds. Thanks for sharing, Paul
