I love your conclusion of experiencing God/universe/life/reality instead of analyzing it. How could the finite mind conceptualize a God not constrained by space, time or dimensionality? It cannot be framed into rational human ideas, only realized as truth by our beingness. I think the 2nd commandment points to this with the prohibition on images, which always start in the mind. Any symbolic representation could be helpful to navigate life, but cannot be God.

Re gravity: If there were no gravity, we would simply float into space randomly. Plants would grow haphazardly. Check out how astronauts float about on the ISS. G-d also created women. OK, now tripartate G-d: Why can't one being be made up of 3 parts? Are human beings not part of their biological parents? Is our Earth not divided into oceans and continents? Is our solar system not comprised of our Sun and the Planets? So, why not G-d in three parts? I don't see a problem with that at all. Your essay was excellent food for thought.
