Namaste or what is God?

The dream state rarely yields any direct messages for me, but last night, in nothing more than a few seconds of dream I had a profound message delivered without any complicated symbolism:

Sitting cross-legged opposite a woman I heard/sensed/felf the question, 'what is God?'.

The answer - the divine spark in me meets the divine spark in you.

This makes so much sense to me. The space between you and me is energised with this divine recognition, as we greet each in other in revernce.

When I relayed this dream to my mother this morning she told me that this is exactly what namaste means (which I always thought was a variation on thank you). Namaste translates and is used in several ways:

• "I honor the Spirit in you which is also in me."
• "I honor the place in you in which the entire Universe dwells, I honor the place in you which is of Love, of Integrity, of Wisdom and of Peace. When you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, we are One."
• "That which is of God in me greets that which is of God in you."
• "The Divinity within me perceives and adores the Divinity within you."

 

Seeing all that is with the gaze of reverence is the what, where, when, why of God. 
God is an action.
God is an act of creation.
