the experience of god: being, consciousness, bliss

A superb book.

Required reading, I’d say, for there is nothing else quite like it. So much debate around the concept of God is pointless because we haven’t arrived at a common definition of what we’re debating.

DBH:

This is either an extremely ambitious or an extremely unambitious book. I tend to think it is the latter, but I can imagine how someone might see it quite otherwise. My intention is simply to offer a definition of the word “God,” or of its equivalents in other tongues, and to do so in fairly slavish obedience to the classical definitions of the divine found in the theological and philosophical schools of most of the major religious traditions.
