The Words of Meister Eckhart, a German Mystic — Part 6
“Don’t try to recognize God.
Because God is the entity beyond any recognition.
If you think you recognize God, it is never God.
You shouldn’t know anything about God that is impossible to know.”
God, mystery and the universe are unknowable for human intelligence.
It is fathomless, and compared with it, human intelligence is just nothing.
Recognizing God is the same as knowing God.
What can we recognize about the unknown God, the fathomless God?
If somebody says “I have recognized God”, it is obviously a lie.
Because, as Eckhart says,
God can’t be captured by human intelligence nor recognition.
It is God because it can’t be known.
If God can be known, it is not God
It is necessary to be understood clearly and firmly
that God is absolutely unknowable and unrecognizable.
It is the unknown because it is the unknowable entity,
and it is the infinite entity because it is unrecognizable.
You can’t know anything about God.
If you can’t know it, you can’t talk about it.
God is the unknowable entity,
and to be the unknowable entity includes the infinite mystery.
It exists in the entirely different dimension beyond intelligence and recognition.
Things knowable and recognizable are neither God nor mystery any longer.
