As the Buddhist's teach us:
"Sometimes it may seem like its easier to understand Him or Her without them."

But, Understand! If concepts are not part of God's Kingdom of Heaven on this
Earth, it would be harder for HisTruth to dwell in us Eternally.

Concepts help God and us find meaning and truth inside of us.

The problem is nobody understands all the details of how all of this happens.

I firmly believe both Theology and Science would benefit from much more
discussion and thought about how we think with and without concepts.

And, also spending time slowing down our thoughts, as the Yogi's and the
Buddhists teach, and not thinking about this subject. Then we would, at that
time or no time, also be listening, trying to understand what God thinks
about it. [We might understand Who He is and Who we are better]
