Abstract
The notion of the infinite as the transcendent source and goal of all human activity is common to virtually all the major world religions. Bracken proposes that the infinite is experienced, properly speaking, not as an entity (not even God as the Supreme Being), but as an ongoing activity which serves as the nature or immanent principle of activity for all entities, God included. Understood as the act of being or in Whitehead's metaphysics creativity, this activity links the Godhead in Christian theology with the notion of "Brahman" in Hinduism, Emptiness in Buddhism, and the "Tao" in Chinese philosophy.
