Stephen Gaskin on God
We are as one on this issue, but he puts it better than I can, so here goes:
"One of the most difficult things to do is to recognize the existence of God as the totality of the Universe.
"Some people think I'm trying to do away with God when I'm not into the curly-bearded man in the white suit. But I feel like that's a very limiting idea of God. If there is anything that God is, it is not limited. . . .
"Everything you do is right here in front of God and everybody. There isn't anywhere you can go. God is also out behind the barn, and in your deepest heart of hearts. God is not only every grain of sand and every massive star, but every plane and level of existence, material or immaterial, thought of or as yet unthought-of: every level of vibration; every realm of possibility--is all God.
"Even in the back of your mind, where you sometimes think uncharitable things about people because you don't think anybody is listening--is God, sitting there listening. . . .
"You want to find God? Spend just a couple of seconds. Look around inside your head for God. Just look around inside your head for God. Can you find him? You having trouble finding him? Who is looking?
"That's who is looking."
