For us, there is an infinite metaphysical gulf between the being of God and the being of the soul, between the “I” of the Almighty and our own inner “I.” Yet paradoxically our inmost “I” exists in God and God dwells in it. But it is nevertheless necessary to distinguish between the experience of one’s own inmost being and the awareness that God has revealed Himself to us in and through our inner self. We must know that the mirror is distinct from the image reflected in it. The difference rests on theological faith.
