God - we will never be able to fathom his mystery

12/28/2011

God’s wisdom, love and beauty are limitless. The higher we rise on the ladder of evolution, the more we are able to intuit subtle realities. And yet, even if we moved one step closer to God every day, we would never succeed entirely in fathoming his mystery. The only sight of the supreme Being we are granted is, as it were, of his feet! But we can know his names – this science is described in detail by the Cabbalah and, in itself, enlightens us about a great deal. No creature of any kind can know the infinite, eternal God, and it is right that this is so. We will continue to seek him and study him, and we will rejoice. There will always be something to discover, because forms are infinite, and elements are always appearing in the universe in new combinations. It would be terrible if there were nothing left to learn, to understand; we would just be waiting to die. But God is eternal life.
