Several college students stood around arguing about the meaning of God. Nearby sat an old Indian woman. They asked her what she thought. With a wan smile she took a small blue bowl from a plastic shopping bag laid the crinkly bag on her lap and pointing to it she said “This is the universe.” Then she pointed inside the bag’s opening and said, “This is God.”
