I had long ago decided that there were two kinds of people who believed in universal Spirit -- those who were not too bright (e.g., Oral Roberts), and those who were extremely bright (e.g., Einstein). Those in between made it a point of "intellectual" merit not to believe in God, or anything transrational for that matter. Anyway, Treya and I believed in God, as one's deepest Ground and Goal, which meant we were either very bright or slightly dumb. And by "God" I do not mean an anthropomorphic father figure (or mother figure), but rather a pure awareness, or consciousness as such, that is what there is and all there is, a consciousness that one cultivates in meditation and actualizes in daily life.
