Image of GOD

Re: Image of GOD

There was a kind of similar thread sometime ago in Philosophy and Spirituality forum by the user Philosophy.

The best ever answer for me to have ever come across was by psyah in that, and I quote him here:

@psyah

When I imagine God … Since I am bound by my aqeedah to believe that He does not occupy form since this is creating similitude with His creation … I do so starting off with what I find familiar and then push the boundaries of my imaginal vision so that the imagery fades away leaving behind an intense feeling that I can then grow and focus upon.

So I know that God is Beautiful so I think of beauty in human terms and push the boundaries of this vision so far that the image disappears leaving an imprint of the feeling that is growing … There is no way to visualise God … When I think that God as the Overseer … then I imagine that feeling I get when someone watches me, but then magnify it as much as I can … It is less important for me to attempt seeing God in my mind than it is to focus on how I would feel knowing that God is before me in all of His Majesty in the Best possible Attributes.
