10. Laws of God |
God’s laws are eternal and unalterable and
not separable from God Himself. It is
an indispensable condition of His very
perfection.
Young India, 24-11-1927, p. 393
God Himself has reserved no right of
revision of His own laws nor is there any
need for Him for any such revision. He is
all-powerful, all-knowing. He knows at the
same time and without any effort the past,
the present and the future. He has therefore
nothing to reconsider, nothing to revise,
nothing to alter and nothing to amend.
Young India, 25-11-1926, 415
We do not know all the laws of God nor their
working. Knowledge of the tallest scientist
or the greatest spiritualist is like a
particle of dust. If God is not a
personal being for me like my earthly
father, He is infinitely more. He rules me
in the tiniest detail of my life. I believe
literally that not a leaf moves but by His
will. Every breath I take depends upon His
sufferance.
Harijan, 16-2-1934, p. 4
He and His Law are one. The Law is God.
Anything attributed to Him is not a
mere attribute. He is the attribute. He is
Truth, Love and Law and a million
things that human ingenuity can name.
Harijan, 16-2-1934, p. 4
The laws of Nature are changeless, unchangeable, and there are no miracles in the sense
of infringement or interruption of
Nature's laws. But we limited beings
fancy all kinds of things and impute
our limitations to God. We may copy God, but
not He us. We may not divide Time for Him,
Time for Him is eternity. For us
there is past, present and future. And
what is human life of a hundred years but
less than a mere speck in the eternity of
Time?
Harijan, 17-4-1937, p. 87
