When he says, "I am the spirit, and I am the way," and when the prophet Muhammad said, "Whoever has seen me has seen God," it is because they became so much an instrument of God, they became part of God's team -- so that God's will was manifest through them, and they were not acting from their own selves and their own egos.
Cand el spune, " sunt spiritul, sunt calea," cand profetul Mohamed a zis, " Cine m-a vazut pe mine l-a vazut pe Dumnezeu", este pentru ca ei devenisera atat de mult un instrument al lui Dumnezeu, devenisera o parte din coloana lui Dumnezeu, asa incat dorinta lui Dumnezeu sa se poata manifesta prin ei nu sa se manifeste prin sine si egoul lor.
