A glance at the schematic genesis of this book P I II evokes a sensitive praise of God which when sung become music. Compliments thus fall due. It is natural to feel seized. My being not too well up on Him did not come in the way since the forward move is by measure of the soul that brings the goal nearer when I realised that God is much more immense than I thought. Why not risk the traditional belief that there is no real relief from the ever elusive ratio of His knowability when in view is curiously other than all the varieties of the known ones in forms and figures while His unknowability calls upon all His seekers to hazard their guess to rue the utter lack of clue to be anywhere near Him because He is increasingly far above it and away. However sweet and or sour the endeavour is the seekers remain raw to spot the subtle subtlety of His paw mark to harp on with contemplation to rise above human understanding a mystics job. Knowing as I do my own image penned in the penultimate para  p II of this book I worked out my missionary resolve Well Done O Lord to be near and dear to Him not without facing my self searching scanner. When Plotinus a neoplatonic said we know Him by what He is not that echoes the assertions of the Upanishads I tilted a bit to treat Him in a homely way notwithstanding His eternal pledge to add to His unknowability. I was laying my hands for a handy inventory of His knowbaility. This book is the third of the trilogy on God the preceding ones are the Biography of Good Part I and II and living with God.
