Man is not God. Yet he can approach God so intimately, be suffused by His presence so completely, that the first mystics to call this state "union with God" may be excused. The telepathic closeness which sometimes exists between two separated lovers, relatives, or friends is a slight hint of the telepathic closeness which exists between the harmonized human ego and its divine soul.
