How to deal with the unlimited with a limited?

The infinite universe is unlimited.   And we humans are limited.

This is the very basic human condition.

If you look around,  everything is a limited survival.

And it is not a simple arithmetic problem.

You cannot add up all the units into a grant unlimited existence.

Is the grand universe a concern of a fish inside a pond?   The fish will not know the atmosphere, will not know the weather. He knows only whether he can eat or mate to survive.    And a survival urge is given to him long bofore he was born.

Is it a sin now that he wishes to know more about the arrangements?

Maybe it is not a sin.

Maybe it is another choice for him.

If you are a gardener to grow a flower,  you will have a plan for the flower for its use.

There must be a plan from the Creator for us humans.

But you will not know the relation between the Creator and the Universe.

Are the so called "Creator " a thinking process of humans?   They need a point to step on to see the relations of everything.

The "Creator" might be only a step in the chess game in a plain horizontal paper.

If humans can think on only a horizontal surface,  they can never reach the core of the matter.

.....

Let's get back to our first question.

Can we reach the unlimited with our limited survival?

That means we must break the shells of our limited survival.

That means we must peck open the shell of the egg.

We are only little chicken inside the egg.

If we are not pecking hard enough,  the egg will never be broken.

.......

I think you have got the meaning here.

note 1

what is unlimited?

There will not be a boundary between the unlimited and the limited.

When there is no boundary, it means there is a way to connect them.

There is a way to connect your limited self into the unlimited universe.

And we have a name for this situation.

The name is "hope".

Yes,  we have a hope.

note 2

If there is no boundary,  it means there is no unlimited. 無界限就是無無限.

It is absurd.

But the absurd is a reality.

We are living in it.

We have a hope.

Although the hope is only temporary,   but it is the only thing we can have.
