Reflection

Hello guys, I want to share this message with you: We should understand that life connect with the smaller parts of space because when we see, we can see infinite smaller points that form our vision and our consciousness, both properties of life in almost every living being. And every part of the space have an absolute union with each other, so only can be moved by life, so every particle is a god particle!

"more contemporary statement"

Hyperbolick, I disagree with your revert of the removal of A more contemporary statement of this idea is that: "Since God is not a being, he is therefore not intelligible... This means not only that we cannot understand him, but also that he cannot understand himself. Creation is a kind of divine effort by God to understand himself, to see himself in a mirror." Like the earlier editor, I don't think the statement adds any clarity to the article. In addition, the ref appears to be a self-published source, a personal website of Genest's interpretations of The Book of Secrets and other research (This page grows out of a growing urge to document medieval science and beliefs on how their world existed. I cannot claim that all of the material on this page is complete. Instead, I can just present my research and that of others in the attempt to offer a worldview that will be of use to those who play Ars Magica.) (added bold for emphasis), and I cannot find any evidence that Genest is an expert in theology or philosophy. I think it's an unreliable source. Schazjmd (talk) 18:00, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

Criticism: Chovos Halevavos

I think Rabbeinu Bachaye in the Chovos Halevavos, Gate of Unity, criticizes the idea, but I don't have access to the text. Could someone look it up? Shibolet Nehrd (talk) 04:43, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
