Kaddosh

Elsewhere in biblical literature or in many human experiences the act of being in the world with others speaks volumes about who we are and how we form our interconnectedness; as men and women who walk with our God – the giver of Life, source of hope and love. Along with prayer and listening to the promptings of the holy Spirit – there lies the hidden wisdom that helps us nourish that sense of otherness within us henceforth, this leads us to connect with our loving God; with a deeper value that leads us to the mystical otherness. Our Lord, our God whose radiance in our hearts keeps us aligned to the perspective of being one – one in faith, one in a life of spiritual engagement. Our prayer, contemplation, meditation, and solitude enable us to see beyond the mystery of God’s otherness. His life-giving presence and sacredness within oh, like a mountaintop experience of that of Moses, of Peter, James, and John when Christ transfigured before them, even those two who’re heading for Emmaus; Moses glowed and these disciples too turned out with awe, a miracle of wonder, a deep experience of God’s presence. Note: kaddosh - In Hebrew it means “otherness,” a radical separation. Indeed, this sense of the Wholly Other cannot even be said to ‘exist’ because it has no place in our normal scheme of reality.’
