“Everyone has personality, but God- no, He doesn’t!” they say, “God has no personality; He’s only an energy.” But if He only is an energy and if everything is His creation, and if there’s personality in His creation then how could it be that it’s not in Him? It’s His creation, so it’s obviously in Him also. Whatever you make reflects your nature. Just look at human beings; they made a car…and it looks just like a human being! Doesn’t it? It has a nose, it has an inlet, it has a tank…and it has an exhaust pipe! And old cars, they make more noise! Isn’t it just the same? What’s the difference? I mean, cars look a lot like human beings if you think of them; they have lights, they have a nose- yes, they do- sometimes they go on all fours- we also do, they have a whole intricate nerve system of wires inside…just look, cars and human beings- very close, because we made them. Thus the car tells something about us- quite a bit actually! If you’ve never seen a human being but you’ve seen a car, you can start to understand a lot about human beings. You may not understand everything- but something. Thus through the creation we can understand something about God.(Excerpt from lenasia Ratha Yatra class, SA, September '08, HH KKSwami)
