Knowledge of God

Month, Day: 166, Honour, Honour (Independence)

The first thing to consider is that we can have this knowledge, even the brights. Then, one needs to consider how free will plays into this, as at any time we have choices.

SAQ #59: The knowledge of the Reality of the Divinity is impossible and unattainable, but the knowledge of the Manifestations of God is the knowledge of God, for the bounties, splendors and divine attributes are apparent in Them. Therefore, if man attains to the knowledge of the Manifestations of God, he will attain to the knowledge of God; and if he be neglectful of the knowledge of the Holy Manifestations, he will be bereft of the knowledge of God. It is then ascertained and proved that the Holy Manifestations are the center of the bounty, signs and perfections of God.

So, we see one role of the Manifestation, that is, being how we know God. We'll leave it at that, for now; just remember that there are two duties.

From an Operational sense, we do seek understanding. For this, there are ways to use thought experiments that are action oriented.

Remarks:

05/17/2011 -- Stephen gets press.

05/09/2011 -- We need a constructive re-look.

03/17/2011 -- Just as St. Patrick carried the message, so too ought we act to bring forth a proper viewpoint.

01/17/2010 -- We must consider how Creation manifests 'singleness' from inward out. That is, we can know God through science.
