A Taste of Bede Griffiths for Maria

I found this after some hunting, a bit of the story Griffiths' told of the effects of his stroke, being overwhelmed with love, and, unfortunately missing, adavita -- the oneness.

Edit: I watched this again and must respond to Jesus’ words on the cross. Supposedly, God has left Jesus, and entering death Jesus experiences this hitherto covered up love. Victor N. Alexander’s ancient Aramaic text has different words. Jesus cries out to Eil, i.e., God, “My God, my God, unto this I was destined” (stated as "For this you destined me" in his Story of Jesus). Unto this love he was destined? That is, overwhelmed by God’s love within him, he lays down his life for us?
