God is a pure no-thing

The following verses by Angelus Silesius (1624-1677) teach surrender and

receptivity to God as the means to Realize Him as one's own Being.

 

God, whose love and joy

are present everywhere

can't come to visit you

unless you aren't there.

 

And again he states beautifully:

 

God is a pure no-thing

concealed in now and here:

The less you reach for him

the more he will appear.

 

Love to all

Hi Harsha,

 

Yes nice verses from Angelus Silesius. Am doing a reappraisal for myself

about Thomas Aquinas who has said similar things, of course about 400 years

before Silesius.

 

Love, Wim
