But as far as thought is concerned, the bible cuts right to the chase. “How precious are Your thoughts toward me, O Lord.” (Psalms 139:17-18) God was thinking about us before we started thinking at all. And now that we are growing, our minds can start to meet God’s and (this is important) learn His way of thinking.
There are some parallels, some differences, between the guru view and the bible view. But the bible view goes further and posits a far more powerful and loving God. You pay your money and you take your choice, but I go for the power and love. I need it.
Cool. I think it’s the same God: The god of Abraham, the god of Ibrahim, the god of Brahman.
