“The point is one that speaks to us all: The moment we human beings grasp God with jealousy and possessiveness, we lose hold of God. One might add that the religious point here is quite the opposite of God’s jealousy, of which we hear so much in the Old Testament; it is God’s infinite capacity to love and the problem of human jealousy.”
Diana L. Eck, Encountering God: A Spiritual Journey from Bozeman to Banaras

“It is important to realize that as theism and theological thought developed in India, each “individual” god was seen as complex. Each was seen as the thousand-headed One, Purusha, who includes the others. Each expresses the full range of God’s multiplicity. Further, each is not seen as penultimate, limited to the one quarter of Reality that we know; each is seen to stretch the theological imagination beyond the world-unworld”
Diana L. Eck, Encountering God: A Spiritual Journey from Bozeman to Banaras

“There are, however, Christians and people of other faiths who seem to have no trouble speaking of God’s ultimacy with one breath and staking out a private territory of God’s activity and grace with the next.”
