John the Irishman, by way of defining God, has recourse to the word nihilum, which is nothingness; God is the primordial nothing of the creatio ex nihilo, the abyss in which first the archetypes and then concrete beings were engendered. He is Nothing and No One. Those conceived of Him in this way did so with the feeling that this condition is more than to be a Who or a What. Analogically, Shankara teaches that men, in deep sleep, are the universe of God. ~ Jorge Luis Borges, From Someone To No One
