God - we can draw closer to Him through meditation and prayer

Who or what is God? So many philosophers, theologians and mystics have tried to answer this question, but none has really succeeded, because God cannot be explained in words. We will come to know what God is only once we are able to become one with Him. But this knowledge will be ours alone; it is not possible to explain it. The entity we call God is both masculine and feminine, as I have already explained. When we speak of the Cosmic Spirit and the Universal Soul we are speaking about God as a single but polarized entity. Although we can neither describe nor even conceive of such a being, we can draw closer to it. Through meditation and prayer our spirit enters into communion with the Universal Soul, and our soul with the Cosmic Spirit. It is in this way that perfect fusion is achieved.
