The questions 106 - 125 are based on comprehension of the passages. Answer the questions that follow each of the passages: The Divine is both in us and out of us. God is neither completely transcendent nor completely immanent. To bring about his double aspect, contradictory accounts are given. He is divine darkness as well as ‘unencompassed light’. The philosophers with their passion for unity emphasize the immanent aspect, that there is no barrier dividing man from the real. The unity of man and God is the fundamental thesis of the great philosophic tradition which has come down to us from the Upanishads and Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus, Samkara,  Spinoza, Bradley and a host of others are witness to it. What does the term ‘unity’ mean according to the passage?
  1. AGod and man have become one and all
