Bhagavad Gita says: ~ Brahmano hi pratisthaham ~ Brahman (God in truth) is considered the all-pervading consciousness, which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (14.27).
When Bhagavad Gita says God is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material then nothing has to be accepted as God other than consciousness.
The ‘Self is not you but the Self is the Soul. The Self does not die, only you die, because you are bound by birth, life, death, and the world.
The birth, life, death, and the world takes place within the domain of form, time, and space.
The Soul, the Self does not die because it is birthless and deathless because it is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
If form, time, and space are an illusion then the universe is an illusion.
If the universe is an illusion then the individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world is bound to be an illusion.
The Soul, the Self is the reality hidden by the illusory universe because the Soul is the cause of the illusory universe.
God stands here for the ultimate truth or Brahman. All that is needed then is to realize the fact that, that self is not the body (you), not the mind, but the Soul, the Self. The soul is present in the form of consciousness (Spirit).
Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman. Brahman is God. Firm conviction about the soul as the 'Self' leads to Advaitic Self-awareness. Self-awareness is God-awareness.
Sage Sankara: ~ Atman, the Self is verily Brahman (God), being equanimous, quiescent, and by nature absolute Existence, Knowledge, and Bliss. Atman is not the body that is non-existence itself. This is called true Knowledge by the wise.
God is the soul, the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. God is not within you, but you and your experience of the world are within God.
Self-realization is God-realization because the Soul, the innermost Self itself is God. When you and your experience of the world disappear then God alone prevails as a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
People are not aware of the fact that there is no God that can exist, apart from the Soul, the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. If there is no consciousness, then there is no-physical body, no world, and no belief in the religious idea of God.
People think that there must be a creator of this universe. If one thinks of the body or as the Self, then there is a creator, but if one thinks of the Soul as the true Self, then there is nothing that exists other than the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
If one objectifies and sees a universe, then he is bound to see many things besides himself and postulate a God, the creator. Body, God, and world rise and set together from, and into, the Soul, the Self. The Soul is the source from where the mind (universe) rises and subsides.
If God is apart from the Soul, the Self, then He would be Selfless, that is, outside existence, that is, non-existent. The mind (universe) and its substance and its source (Soul) are one in essence. That essence is consciousness.
Consciousness alone is real all else is merely an illusion created out of consciousness. Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman. The ultimate truth is God in truth.
Upanishads say: ~ If you believe that you are one and God is another you cannot understand Truth.
No conceptual God can exist, apart from consciousness. People are not aware of the fact that there is no individual God that can exist, apart from the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Upanishads say: ~ If you believe that you are one and God is another you cannot understand Truth.
No conceptual God can exist, apart from consciousness. People are not aware of the fact that there is no individual God that can exist, apart from the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
The Soul is the Self. If there is no consciousness, then there is no- physical body, no ego, no universe, no religion, and no conceptual God.
No conceptual God can exist, apart from consciousness. People are not aware of the fact that there is no individual God that can exist, apart from the Soul, which is in the form of consciousness. Thus, the Soul, the Self is present in the form of consciousness. If there is no consciousness, then there is no physical -body, no ego, no universe, no religion, and no conceptual God.
The ‘Self is not you but the Self is the Soul. The Self does not die, only you die, because you are bound by birth, life, death, and the world.
The birth, life, death, and the world takes place within the domain of form, time, and space.
The Soul, the Self does not die because it is birthless and deathless because it is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
If form, time, and space are an illusion then the universe is an illusion.
If the universe is an illusion then the individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world is bound to be an illusion.
The Soul, the Self is the reality hidden by the illusory universe because the Soul is the cause of the illusory universe.
People think that there must be a creator of this universe. If one thinks physical entity or ego as the Self, then there is a creator, but if one thinks of the Soul as the Self, then there is nothing that exists other than consciousness.
If one objectifies and sees a universe, then he is bound to see many things besides himself and postulate a God, the creator. The body, the idea of the God and world rise and set together from, and into, the Soul, the Self. If God is apart from the ‘Self' then God would be Selfless, that is, outside existence, that is, non-existent.
Bhagavad Gita: ~ brahmano hi pratisthaham~ Brahman is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (14.27)
Yajurveda: ~ God is Supreme Spirit has no ‘Pratima’ (idol) or material shape. He cannot be seen directly by anyone. He pervades all beings and all directions. Thus, Idolatry does not find any support from the Vedas. ( chapter- 32)
Bible says: ~ “God is a Spirit, and they that worship God must worship God in spirit and in truth. (John 4:24).
Mythreyi Upanishad 2:26 says: ~ All those who desire to have salvation without taking several births, should worship God in spirit and truth.
In Vedas, God has been described as: ~
Yajurveda: ~ God is Supreme Spirit has no ‘Pratima’ (idol) or material shape. He cannot be seen directly by anyone. He pervades all beings and all directions. Thus, Idolatry does not find any support from the Vedas. ( chapter- 32)
Rig Veda:~ The Soul is the cause; the Soul is the support of all that exists in this universe. May ye never turn away from the soul, the innermost self. May ye never accept another God in place of the soul, nor worship him."( 10:48, 5).
Rig Veda:~ Prajnanam Brahma: - Consciousness is the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth.
When Vedas itself says consciousness itself is Brahman or God in truth then all other Gods you believe and worship are not Gods in truth.
The nature of God in truth is:~
v Sakshi (Witness)
v Chetan (conscious)
v Nirguna (Without form and properties).
v Nitya (eternal)
v Shuddha (pure)
v Buddha (omniscient)
v Mukta (unattached).
So, it clearly indicates that God is formless thus there is no scope for a form-based God. The religion and its ideas of gods, and its theories of karma, heaven, hell, papa, punya, rebirth, and reincarnation are based on the false self (ego), within the false experience (waking). Therefore, they are meant for a lower mindset, they are of no use for those who are seeking higher truth as indicated in the scriptures. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
