I can't speak for the Reality of God.
Never met anyone who could.
However, there are many who can speak with regard
to what the Reality of God is not!
God is not emotion.
To believe otherwise is quite childish and foolish.

If you are concerned with those who are unenlightened
check to see if they are inhabiting a body of some sort (astral or physical)
If they are, they are surely unenlightened.

Compassion and caring is of the formless stuff,
which can take on many forms.

'Light', 'Love beyond description', 'Compassion that is overwhelming' are novel descriptions.
What are you attempting to describe?
(Please don't tell me)

No one can explain the True Nature of God.
It's a devastating addiction to try,
and extremely difficult to give up.

A genuine understanding of Karma doesn't purport that another's suffering is not our business.
On the contrary,
a genuine understanding of Karma reveals
that another's suffering is our own.

Spirit is like sun.
People are like clouds.
To see the sun
look through the clouds.
