The Paradox of Oneness and the Separate Self

Tuesday 28 March 2023

Grieving the Loss of God as an Object

A woman talks about her ongoing relationship with the divine as ‘other’ and how turning to her true being feels like the loss of God. Rupert suggests that Meister Eckhart prayed to God to rid him of God. He did that because he felt that God was other than himself, a being separate from him. That is the highest state of the individual, but if we are separate, then God must have a limit. This denies God’s infinite being, which is blasphemy.
