Hi Ghunk:

Since, you like Frithjof Schuon's writings, I must tell you, I like this excerpt from one of his writings. In my opinion, it sums up man's experience in his quest for God and Truth

"In fact, what separates man from divine Reality is but a thin partition: God is infinitely close to man, but man is infinitely far from God. This partition, for man is a mountain; man stands in front of a mountain which he must remove with his own hands. He digs away the earth, but in vain, the mountain remains; man however goes on digging, in the name of God. And the mountain vanishes. It was never there."

Maybe, if we didn't work so hard at it, divine Reality would appear to us..

0;-))

Have a good day
Carol
