All
this* is somewhat dry: but perhaps there are two morals to be drawn.
**One is that God is One but with many aspects depending upon the
point of view. Each aspect is as perceived by a particular aspect of
Man, and speaks to it in its own way. So, broadly: (this) logic
deals in truths, and comes to a halt before a Quality of Absolute
Truth; Science deals in material questions, and contemplates the
ultimate material question; mysticism develops by inward experience,
and seeks the innermost Experience.
For
me, I think, the most convincing thing about God, beyond all logic,
Science or mysticism, is the simple fact that I can't stop looking
for him: or to put it another way, I seek God because I can't help
it. This is a thing neither of truth, nor question, nor experience;
though all these are a part of the search, it is the Search that is.
The Search reveals the Spirit.***
This
declaration brings a welcome fluidity of mind, contrasting with the
dryness of previous discussions. All three of the
****(complementary) approaches are (or should be) committed to the
search for Truth using truth also for the search; but truth also is
in the commitment, and the commitment is Love.#
*[See
last previous entry/ies.]
**I
seem to have forgotten to write down the other.... <[87]0418>
[or
perhaps the second paragraph has it? <20160314>]
***{cf.
IV.10,48.}
****(Train
of thought distracted during this.)
