God's Revelation Does Not Depend On Content

"From the nondual perspective, R. Aharon might call this transformation on from 'our point of view,' one of smallness of mind, to 'God's point of view'--not because any new information is imparted, but because the clouding filters of the ego have been lessened...'God's point of view' does not depend of content...it is subtractive in nature; it is that from which the selfish perspective is removed...For the traditional Jew, what is left over when the self is taken away is Ein Sof, or God."

Jay Michaelson Everything is God pp. 159-160
