To know or experience


You may know about water, how good it is, how much it can relieve thirst and how clean it can make you. But if we do not drink it or bathe in it, the knowledge does not do us much good.

So is it with God, that amazing creative Power in the universe. We can read about, hear about, believe in God, but as long as we do try to internalize the Wisdom, as long as we do not experience God, and truly live in that supreme Love, we do not truly see, and experience the tremendous Peace, we are mere "knowers", hardly benefiting from this knowledge.

Sometimes I feel the leaders of organized religions pretend they can be the connection between God and their followers, which puts them in a seriously questionable but very powerful position towards those who choose to swallow that way of teaching.
