The ultimate Jewish prayer is Shema Yisroel, which effectively means, yes there is a God, and yes there is a world, but the two are not antonyms there synonyms; for God seeks not for us to exist our domain to enter into his – that is the colossal error of humans, who seeing that God is beyond them, think that he is above them – true infinity means that it isn’t above, rather in a dimension which is simultaneously here and not, in other words, God is both beyond and one hundred percent within simultaneously – so how can we understand that our world seems so desolate, so dark at times?! for every darkness, desolate space, is merely a springboard – as people only appreciate light having first been in the darkness – in simple words: God created you and me in a time bound world – time really is experiences of dark and light, and we experience dark, so we should seek, hence appreciate the light, later.
