Koan 260

How do we find God, as God has no name or address?

 

Taoism, Mystical Christianity, Sufism, Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism identify God as the “Nameless One”.

God is nameless, as having a name would mean God is one thing and not another, implying duality.

God, the antithesis of duality, is the whole universe.

 

We see the manifestation of God everywhere in the everchanging and eternal now. We are this manifestation.

Yet, as God resides in the timeless space before and after the now, it’s difficult for us in the now to find and commune with God.

 

It is easy to find God when we look in a mirror and realize we are God.
