【「差異」vs「分離」】
差異(difference)並不意味著分離(division)。這兩個詞是不能互換的。
你和神有差別，但你沒有與神分離。
你與神沒有分離這個事實，正是你永遠不會消逝的原因。
海浪沖上沙灘，但它並沒有消失，它只是改變了形態，然後又退回海洋。
每當海浪沖上沙灘，海洋並沒有變“ 小”。
相反，海浪的到來展現並透露了海洋的浩大雄偉。
而當海浪退回海洋，它又恢復了海洋的榮耀。
海浪的存在是海洋存在的證明。
你目前的存在，即是神存在的證明。
(Your presence is evidence of the existence of God.)
摘自《與神談生死》第11章
Difference does not mean division. Those words are not interchangeable.
You are different from God, but you are not divided from God. The fact that you are not divided from God is why you can never die.
“he wave lands on the beach, but it does not cease to be. It merely changes form, receding back into the ocean.
The ocean does not get “smaller” every time a wave hit’s the sand. Indeed, the incoming wave demonstrates, and therefore reveals, the ocean’s majesty.
Then, by receding into the ocean, it restores the ocean’s glory.
“The presence of the wave is evidence of the existence of the ocean.”
“Your presence is evidence of the existence of God.”
