The three men who saw God
There were once three men who went to a sage and told him that they have seen God. The sage asked them “How did God look like?” The first man replied “God had hundredheads,feetandhands.” Thesage asked the second man “How did God look like to you?” The second man replied “God was like a crystal, full of truth, light and purity. How should I describe his face? Aha! His face was full of love for all creatures”. The sage asked the third man “How did god look like to you?” The third man replied “I cannot describe God. I can only feel Him in the hearts of everyone.” The sage said, “He alone has seen God. God is formless. No one can describe Him. We can only feel the presence of God. Hence the third person has seen God.”
Moral: God is formless.
