The Upanishads

My favorite part of this read was the quote, "If you think that you know God, you know very little; all that you can know are ideas and images of God." This stuck out to me because of the sheer truth behind it. No one can fully grasp the whole meaning and understanding of God. To me, i think that that is why people turn to religions in the first place. It is a belief in a higher being that no one can explain in which we enlist our trust. I feel that if God was something that was explained and proved to be either true or untrue, religion would in turn lose it's luster.
