Different Readings of the One

This universe, in its various forms, is but the various readings of the same Impersonal. 

When we read it with the five senses, we call it the material world. If there be a being with more senses than five, he will read it as something else. If one of us gets the electrical sense, he will see the universe as something else again. 

There are various forms of that same Oneness, of which all these various ideas of worlds are but various readings, and the Personal God is the highest reading that can be attained to, of that Impersonal, by the human intellect.

Swami Vivekananda, Lecture in England
