If God is not “A
Being” but “Being Itself”
“To Be” is Holy.
If God is not “A
Being” but “Being Itself”
All Life is Sacred.
[Rich Note: "God as Being" instead of "God as a Being" is a "conceptual shift or leap" that turned Thomas Merton (after coming across the idea that “God Is Being” in a book entitled “The Spirit of Mediaeval Philosophy,” by Etienne Gilson) from the life of a "hedonistic, intellectual skeptic and womanizer,” who candidly admitted: “I was interested in doing good for only one person in the world, myself,” to a Catholic Monk , Mystic, supporter of the 60’s Peace Movement and world renown author of an autobiography entitled, “The Seven Story Mountain.” (Related Hay-Ku: Merton became a theist when he realized God is “Being Itself.”]
