God: Almighty God... god
the Creator... a Hindu god... an Indian god... a Christian god... be it any god
personified... the entity of god shall always remain one. The
Creator of the whole Cosmos is one. God Almighty is also one. God is that powerful
entity of the cosmos which lies beyond the domain of human beings. Since times
immemorial human beings neither have the capability nor that power of discrimination
to characterize god based on religion or culture. God
is the Creator of all things physical (all things manifested and visualized by
our physical senses). God is also the Creator of all things beyond our comprehension...
those that are invisible to us... things beyond the capture of senses and the
mind. There is nothing in whole Cosmos which is not created by God. To
believe or not to believe in God is the sole prerogative of human being. The complete
system of god is democratic in nature. Nothing is implemented by force. Every
human is endowed with attributes owed to god that makes possible for one to arrive
at logistical conclusions. Based
on our senses and the mind and the intellect... one can always come to the surmise
whether or not to believe in existence of god. If we believe in existence of god...
it is okay with God! If we do not believe in existence of god... then also it
is okay with God! In the system of god Almighty God never discriminates. As
a child we may or may not believe in God. As we grow we learn by experience. As
we gain maturity we develop our power of discrimination. Now our decisions are
not based entirely on our parents and the elders' point of view alone. This
growing child learns that there is a hidden entity in the Cosmos remaining invisible
to the humanity all the time. Terming it as god this child proceeds ahead in life
with the hope that as and when he would require the services of god, his beloved
god would always be there to take care of him. This is not a bad surmise at all
for a growing child. After
all god almighty is duty bound for it is god who has created his creation. To
take care of his creation is god's responsibility. If at the time of need god
does not help one... it would lead to the surmise that no child ever is the responsibility
of its mother. That never happens. The wail of a child attracts the attention
of any mother passing by. In the circumstances how can it be that God neglects
his own children!
The invisible hand of God
Something we cannot see but gods presence can always be felt in the flowing brooks,
the mountainside, the seashores, the beauty of the creation of god that we daily
perceive in our life, the power of the sun, moon and the stars and foremost of
all in the fragrance of a flower. This reminds the child that something beyond
the limitations of a human being exists and this one calls as god.
God is feminine or masculine It is debatable whether woman see
god as feminine in nature and men as having attributes of a man. Most that are
religious by nature tend to differentiate god by gender. God is never limited
by gender. God Almighty is not limited by his own creation. It is neither feminine
nor masculine in nature. God does not have any limitation at all. It is a source
of pure energy.
God... a cluster of pure energy Perceived from the physicists
point of view God is a cluster of atoms and molecules much beyond the comprehension
of senses and the mind and science. God is pure energy. This energy we know as
god is manifest all over the Cosmos. It is not bound by the limitations of space
and time. God is everywhere. Glory is to god for he is available to the mankind
wherever we may be.
Present
in every living being in form of his soul atman... this miniscule form of god
we call as soul atman is of the same essence as god Almighty. And what it indicates?
This simply tells us that wherever life exists the presence of god is there! In
other words God is present in all of us in form of our soul atman.
The religious god As the child matures it observes that the society
believes in two facets of god... God the religious and spiritual god! Although
god had nothing to do with this surmise of human beings... but this decision of
mankind prevailed. The absolute truth had to be one. There was no going back on
that. Then why two facets of one entity god!
For
the society to flourish... for the humanity to exist... the religious form of
god was a must! For the common man an entity of god had to exist so that one could
pray to Almighty God through this medium. This entity could be a clay mould of
god kept in a temple, a tree or even a piece of stone. For
worshipping God we desire and enact a manifest form of god. And why was this necessary?
For a layman it was not possible to concentrate his thoughts on god without a
manifest form of god... be it in the temples, Church or the mosque. This gave
rise to worshipping of clay replicas of god. But
why was all this necessary. Why god had to be worshipped at all. One could live
in the confines of his home concentrate on god Almighty within his thoughts and
that would be sufficient. Yes, that would be sufficient for a spiritual seeker
but for a common householder concentrating on god in thoughts was next to impossible. The
religious god became the bane of every household. God had to be worshipped and
going to the temples, Church and the mosques seemed to be the right way. This
led to the spread of various religions all over the face of mother earth. And
religion came to be regarded as the milestone for all the believers in God. Until
this child grew up... he also followed the religious form of god. Going to the
temples, church or mosques became a daily routine. The
faculty of thought which had now started blooming in the child... developed his
intuitive powers further! On further analysis this child came to a conclusion
that to live the present life of 70 to 80 years... following religion was one
part of life. But if god was to be found in the present life... religion was not
the only path! Searching
further... the child came in possession of sacred texts that revealed apart from
religion also existed spirituality. And it was spirituality that would lead the
child straight to god. And what was this spirituality? What do we mean when we
talk of spirituality? Logistical
conclusions led this child towards his own inner self. This child ultimately realized
that within him existed God in miniscule form. The absolute truth of the cosmos
was finally revealed to him. If we are to truly search for god... we need to dive
deep into the bottomless pit of our heart wherein our soul atman resides. It
is this soul atman which leads one directly to god Almighty. The spiritual god
is after all the ultimate crux of life. Reading the sacred texts further the child
realized that knowing our inner self... realizing our true inner
self was what life was all about. Every true seeker of spirituality...
every human being who desires confrontation with God on one-to-one basis had to
reach the source of our own soul atman. This
seemed to be the end goal of life. It became evident that once a person realized
his true self... became enlightened then cosmic journey would abruptly come to
an end. In spiritual parlance one had finally reached the abode of god Almighty.
Gaining enlightenment and finally salvation was the end goal of every living being. Having
come to this surmise... the search for god seemed complete! Now, the ball was
in the Court of the seeker. Whether or not to proceed in search of god in this
life was purely dependent upon every individual. Right from the first manifestation
as an amoeba and to the last... the 8.4 millionth manifestation... the journey
in search of god continues. In
whatever phase of life one may be... it is purely our decision when we desire
to proceed in search of god. It is but possible to reach the end of cosmic journey
in every life. To do it now or later is the pertinent question? In
the last about 150 years only two persons gained enlightenment and reach the end
of their cosmic journey. They came face-to-face with God Almighty. They were Sri
Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana. Reaching
the abode of god Almighty is the end crux of life... following the religious path
we may take the journey of 8.4 million manifestations... but to cut short the
path... spirituality is the only means of achieving god within this life. By: Vijay
