An Attempted Handshake Preceding Communication, Verbal or Emotional
I laughed just a moment ago when I realized than normal life consists of intelligent guys and dolls handshaking with the Universe, communicating, and processing and understanding. Of course, there is always static and noise and bandwidth problems: it's hard to find the time and a lot of times we cut things short and end up with imperfect understanding.
Religion, though, should be a handshake with that which is outside the range of the usual. When we handshake with God, we know it and there is at least the perfect understanding that we did indeed shake hands with the Holy. That knowledge is not susceptible to being corrected. It is wonderful.

Nor is it susceptible to being known or accurately communicated to others.
True.
(And when people try to do so, it is uncomfortable to listen to.)
That's why each person has to do it alone.
