WHO/WHAT IS GOD?

Who/What is God?

"He" is neither Mother nor Father.

This imposition of "personality" over That Which Is as He-She-Creator is the undoing of “blind” bookish lot; yet devoid of The Buddha Happening.

In The Ultimate Reality no human-form, anthropomorphic god exists.

Only faiths of lower spiritual understanding believe in it. This illusory phenomenon dissolves once pre-conditioning of our mind is “overcome” during Mystical/Yogic “Self” Realization.

The Knowing, Buddha/Christ-Hood, is A Universal Experience in Mysticism.

Zillions of “happenings" occur during “Shishya”, Learning Phase in a Seeker’s life. Yet, in The End, as Master, the Universal Truth that dawns upon The Chosen One is identical.

Truth is One.

No your-mine “chosen” belief is “There”!

As Spiritual Scientists, “worthy” devotees of The Divine, we all can “realize” The Ultimate Truth of The Universe. However, only the “hungry”/“thirsty” childlike reverent seekers get That Which Is as a “physical” experience.

Interim visions come-go, conditioned by our inherited/acquired faith or understanding. Yet, at the zenith, as Self-Realization, our Soul/Life Essence discovers its own “Holy” - Father/Mother/Creator - Primordial Self as ONE UNIFIED ONENESS OF ALL EXISTENCE.

All uncertainties, differences sine die. The Ultimate Truth therein is One.

The Self of our “ I “, “life” of our existence, finds it’s Quintessence. It is experienced as Unity; Oneness of All Existence.

This is God.

Yet, it is semantics.

Fools speak.

The Eternal Silence stays “zeroed in”: as Self of All That Is.

Stephen Hawking to God: Your Services Are No Longer Needed; God: You So Do Not Get Who I Am!

Is God dead?

Scientists, unable to find “Him”, as most think “God” is, make us but random dots in a spotless vacuum. As if there is no Divine Intelligence “guiding” The Universe.

So, is ours a God-less Universe?

Cosmologist Physicists are as mistaken as are the simple-minded religious lot believing otherwise. The Big Bang theory is as much a hypothesis as is a “Jealous God” in human form sitting in some illusory heaven up “there”.

Scientists like Stephen Hawkins propagate “total energy of the universe is exactly zero”. Meaning, energy creates its own self etc. Attributing no Intelligent Design behind it; and, hence, no Creator. All is random happening of nothingness.

The Universal Energy Total is Zero. Spirituality agrees with Science.

But it is a “Full” Zero!

Yogis/Free Mystics’ “Buddha” Zero - “Shunya” - is Empty yet Full.

The Universal Consciousness that science fails to “clinically” establish here is very much “There”. In and as The “Zero” of “That” Zorro we simpletons call God!

So, what happens “There”?

The Universal Energy/Force of Life - “Shakti - dissolves unto The Zero of The Immanent “Self”. The “thing” - Observer - becomes The Thing which is No Thing. Yet, is Every Thing. Is All That Is!

This Single Eye sees it’s “ I “ as One - The Self - of All “That” exists.

This Immanent Immortality exists As and In What-So-Ever Is.

Is God!

Arm-chair Scientists neither find “This” nor “That”.

Hence, remain zero in Spirituality.

The Problem with Hell

The Problem with Hell is it does not exist!

Neither does Heaven.

“Neither shall they say, lo here! Or lo there! For, behold, the KINGDOM OF GOD, is WITHIN YOU!” [ST. LUKE 17.21]

How much clearer could Jesus be?

Heaven or Hell is not some “physical” place.

Above-said Saying of The Master should put to rest every “devil” of doubt for Christians. Yet, it does not. Present and past followers of Jesus believe in supercilious, superstitious “scriptural” notions of “burning” in hell forever or “blissful” eternally in heaven.

“Sat-Guru”/True Teacher of Christians, nay, of the world, Jesus, “straightened out” myths of Bible.

His teachings are akin to Self-Realization of Yogis and Free Mystics of ancient India: provided The Master is “grasped” with The "Single Eye" of The East.

For Western minds fail to understand Christ.

My 1999 book, JESUS THE TRUE MASTER YOGI [Deciphering The Yogic/Mystic Teachings of Jesus], on LIVE FREE DISPLAY at http://books.google.com sheds some light on this issue. (Updated Version soon).

The "demon" of lower Metaphysical Understanding of The Ultimate Reality stands exposed; "bare" in The YOGA OF JESUS.

That professors, theologians, scientists of Christian inheritance, like other Semitic religions and faiths elsewhere, believe in illusory “kingdom” somewhere “up there”, is both saddening and staggeringly strange to Higher Spiritual Systems of East.

Anyway, in nutshell, if Jesus is understood in a Yogic/Sufi/Free-Mystic Way; no demons of hell or heaven shall trouble Christians. Amen!

How to Find a Spiritual Teacher

Pick a brick, out comes a “guru”. And, another’s on top!

People joke.

However, since time immemorial, finding, then, learning at “Feet of The Master” is considered a sine qua non for attaining Enlightenment/Eternal Freedom/Nirvana in most Spiritual Traditions of East.

Lest we “bow” to some dubious Baba/Swami, Self-professed Avatar/Incarnation of God here or any Self-proclaimed Messiah/Mediator elsewhere; deep caution is advised.

Yet, it's destiny.

Belief in East is that this or that way, seeker finds one’s “karmic” guru. And, discovers The Way. In fact, a “Simple Simon”, possessing a child’s innocent heart, is assured of finding a “Bodh” Guru/Attained Master than is a cleverer, pedantic/bookish “Solomon”.

Were this precept of Jesus, “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you”, taken in The Guru Tradition [not in some “Son of God’ context]; then, Guru/”Chela”-Teacher/Disciple query is addressed fully.

It's karma. As free mystics of East put it.

And, after all is said and done, Guru is The One who takes us from “Gu”/Darkness/Ignorance to “Ru”/Light/Knowledge. The Spiritual Teacher, like one’s parent, is there to guide the child; not stand in the way of latter’s destiny.

A worthy “son” gets one’s due “inheritance”: That Which Is.

“Neither shall they say, lo here! Or lo there! For, behold, the Kingdom of God is Within You.” [Luke 17.21]

True Guru is “Within”. As one’s own Inner Self.

So, don't worry, be happy!

Conscious Evolution and the Integration of Science and Spirituality

Conscientious “evolving” human beings are few and far in-between.

The awareness that out of “No Thing at All” has evolved Everything that was, is and will be is fantastic. Yet, fallacious.

The “No-Thing” implies “nothing”.

It is untrue.

The "Father" & The "Creator" of “everything” is neither “a thing” nor “no thing”. And, certainly is not “no thing at all”. It is “something” beyond simple, simplistic definitions.

We need “evolve” from Simple Simon to Spiritual Solomon.

It requires, conscientiously, getting rid of “Simple Simon”. This demands, we neither over simplify nor overtly “sci-fi” That Which Is.

Afore said “No Thing At All” is not some “zero” of Science.

Evolutionary Theory or “Big Bang” Hypothesis etc. has relevance in this “earthly” realm. This “illusion” does not exist “There”. At “The” End.

So, what is “IT” that can bring “Conscious Evolution”: The Integration of Science & Spirituality?

It is, consciously, “attaining” Buddha-hood/Knowing that Science & Spirituality are siblings. One can be used to “seek” and “find” the other. There is no rivalry betwixt them. As they “evolve” in stature and “Nature”, both could “get” The Answer.

It is simple.

From “Self” arises “non-self”. Once “illusion” of manifestation ends; the non-self “settles” unto The Self. As if “it” never was. Therein, “It” remains: as “Self” of All That Is. Until “karma” decides it is time to “manifest” again.

This “Evolution” is Never Ending.

Yet, is “no thing”, “nothing” and “no thing at all”.

Is All in One.

The End!

Who Says All Religions Are the Same?

Are all religions the same?

Of course, they are not. To “herd” them together as one “flock”, is not only naïve but nonsensical. Atheists and neo-pacifists, either lampoon or “Lama”-spoon religion to “feed” their own vested interests. Both are equally mistaken or mischievous.

Free Mystics and Yogis of India, eons ago, declared “TRUTH is ONE; but wise call IT by many names.” They meant it differently. Most thinkers miss the nuance. Aldous Huxley, with his “Perennial Philosophy”; taking “out” the “juice” of all religions and “drinking” the same, probably came nearer to understanding, though not “experiencing”, WHAT IS.

Abrahamic religions believe in a personal god, but “their” one! India has millions of gods/goddesses. People elsewhere, around the world, hold their beliefs dear. Meat-eating “Lama” culture has “swallowed” Buddhist doctrine. In this “holier-than-thou” neo-world culture, no wonder atheists and jihadists are having a field day.

So, how are all religions the same?

They are, in the sense, that after all is said and done, the “worthy” - CHOSEN ONE - amongst us, rises “above” all limitations and “overcomes” this-that “fancied” ism of one’s inheritance or choosing. One is “AWAKENED” in Pure Immanent Consciousness.

“Here” no religion abounds. No messiahs stand. No angels “reveal” No “god” speaks!

At THE END, the “REALITY” of “EXISTENCE” is experienced as "ONENESS". "ALL IS ONE” is no theory “here”. It s ONE TRUTH “There”!

In this sense, all religions are same.

Otherwise, they are cats and dogs!

Sufism & Islamic/Muslim Belief

Is Sufism Islam?

Islamic Apologetics would like us to believe so.

However, both “belief” systems are as chalk and cheese. Nothing is common betwixt them. Except rancor and rumor.

Islam holds GOD is absolutely “OTHER”. In Sufism there is “NO OTHER”. The “Core of Sufism” is NOT “To Strive for Nearness to God” but “ONENESS with GOD”. Quran postulates death for those who, like Jesus, proclaim “I and MY FATHER are ONE!” [St John 10.30] Sufis do.

Quranic Verse (50:16), of God being “closer to you than your jugular vein”, is often cited as “living” proof of Identical Teachings of Mohammedans and Sufis. Said Bulle Shah: “Wiped Off is Ink on Kalma!” [The 1st Confirmatory Verse of Quran/Mohammed being Allah’s Prophet].

Be it Rumi or Shamas Tabriz; by Strict Interpretation of Quran, Sufi’s “faith” is “Kufr”/Un-Truth. Such mystics, “Kafir.” Mansoor Al-Hallaj was cut to bits for proclaiming “An Al Haq” [I am The Truth] - as per Sufi’s SELF-REALIZATION of ULTIMATE REALITY, of ONENESS with “THAT” Which Is: God!

This is Apostasy in Mohammedan Belief.

Islam believes in a “man-like” anthropomorphic god. This is not The “Buddha” Experience of Sufis. Such “Duality” is annihilated - “overcome” - in DIVINE UNITY.

Much as humankind wishes for peace with Islam; it cannot come unless we all realize, as Sufis do, that “ALL IS ONE”. To “filter down” Sufism and “doctor” it to Islamic Belief does not cut it.

Sufism is not Islam.

Darwinism & The Moral Argument for God

Conflict between Science and Religion is illusory.

However, many Western “thinkers” make this non-issue an issue.

These arm-chair philosophers, spitting fire and brimstone on “religion”, singing odes to Darwin; remain blissfully ignorant of The “Illusion” Einstein referred to. An “inkling” of it had this great scientist all agog.

If books could give us The Truth, every cockroach ever to crawl over them would get it. ‘Philo’ is love, ‘Sophy’ Knowledge. Philosophy is “Love for Knowledge”. It entails a thinking person Seek and Find WHAT IS. But, for that, is "mind", as we "think" is, enough?

What happens “beyond” our mind?

All, as we imagine it is, "stands" on its head!

Evolution etc. is "observable phenomena" in the "illusion" of Time. It is "limited" in its scope. Einstein "got" it that time/space is “illusory”. Yet, being "persistent", it manifests as a consistent fact. Incidentally, this "observable" world, as "seen" by us, is referred to as "Maya" in all spiritual traditions of India. It means ILLUSION.

Thus, within this “manifest” context - time/space of present day "observable phenomena" - Indian Yogis and Free Mystics give science its due respect. This includes The Evolutionary Theory of Darwin.

Yet, religion means “re-join”. With “That”, Which Is.

Said Mansoor Al-Hallaj - "To comprehend The Unlimited is not the range or quality of that, which is limited." This Sufi Saint was cut to bits by fanatics in 10th century A.D.

Some “thinkers” of West commit this “hara-kiri”.

With Truth.

Can We Depend Upon Our MIND?

Science tends to equate “mind” with our “brain”. It is fallacious. There is “something” that “runs” our brain and mind. What is “it”? It is “life”. But what is the “stuff” this “life” is made of? The Answer eludes Science.

Darwin, Einstein, Newton etc. were, “mind-wise”, admittedly, more intelligent than most of us. Evolutionary or Atomic Theory may be called “observable phenomena” in a limited context. The Unlimited or The Timeless is beyond this “illusion” of time and space. Einstein honored this “inkling” of The Ultimate Reality. In this context, he was deeply “spiritual”.

In East, India specifically, science never is in conflict with spirituality. Why? Because the Yogis and Free Mystics, independent of any tight “religious” beliefs, depend entirely upon “observable phenomena” to seek and find WHAT IS. The scientific community as well as a lay man must grasp these “findings” to “get” The Truth.

So, what did then, as do now, Yogis and Free Mystics find?

After life-long perseverance, it is found by these “Spiritual Scientists” that The “Mind” of our “mind” can be reached! This UNIVERSAL MIND or GOD (of the simple-minded amongst us), is The QUINTESSENCE or “LIFE” of our “SELF”. This “HAPPENING” is bestowed upon The “CHOSEN” Devotee as “MERCY” or “GRACE” of THE DIVINE. Enlightenment can “happen” to anybody. Yet, it may never occur. Thus, one has to be “religious” in this “faith” that “within” us is “KINGDOM OF GOD”. 

The drop does “meet” The Ocean!

Albert Einstein's Faith: Was the Great Physicist Spiritual?

An Open Heart with An Open Mind gets The Open Secret.

In this sense, Einstein was deeply "religious"; a discerning "spiritual" being. But averse to the idea of a "personal god". And, rightly so. His 'expansive spirit' was 'relentlessly curious'. Open to "Time-less" and "Eternal" Structure of The Ultimate Reality.

This is The Way of Yogis and Free Mystics of India.

The "view" of GOD as a "person", is a "lower" belief. Yet, this "lesser" idea of “TRUTH” exists as a tangible "reality" in East and West alike. Millions believe and die with it. None the wiser.

It is not The Way of A Free 'Spirit'. Of intelligent people.

Seek and Find. Is The Name of The Game. Of Mysticism.

Yet, much as one may respect "intelligent" minds, such as that of Einstein; to "get" THE TIMELESS REALITY, beyond "stubbornly persistent ILLUSION”, the MIND as we know it, must be transcended. Why? Because "stuff" that "mind" is made of is not "brain" but SPIRIT. 

Our mind may "perceive" or "conceive" A SENSE OF REALITY. But most of us never get "IT" as a virtual "SELF"-Experience. Failing to “get” IT, a visible section of human society becomes atheist; anti-religion. Then, ANTI-GOD.

Both "Believers" and "Infidel" Non-Believers worship an "ISM".

A "scientific" mind should not "believe" or disbelieve "blindly" any truisms. Einstein did not. Was OEPEN-HEARTED and OPEN-MINDED to WHAT IS. Thus, was more "spiritual" than most of us ever are. Or, shall ever be!

What is Buddhism?

Simply, sans semantics, "Buddhi" means "intelligence". Metaphysically, one established in INTELLIGENT AWARENESS of WHAT IS, can be called a BUDDHA.

AHIMSA or NON-VIOLENCE, in India, where Buddhism originated, means, "Non-Killing" of ANY, not just "human" LIFE.

Why is it prohibited to take "life"?

This injunction in HIGHER SPIRITUAL WAY(s) of India is inviolable. Unlike Semitic religions or other "paths" elsewhere, taking of "life" of animals, specifically for "food", is a strict no-no here. Excuses “forwarded” by so-called Buddhists for partaking meat are of "LAMA" kind. Of an "alien culture". It is an “outsider” ethos.

Admittedly, a chunk of "less evolved" Indian Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists too take meat. They are in millions. The majority or popular "belief" is, more often than not, of a lower kind. That is why it has more followers. A "higher kind" of Seeker, from anywhere in the world, is no “easy” sheep that can be "herded" to take "feed" with the common flock.

Thus, it may rightly be said that "we are all either moving towards Correct Understanding [Enlightenment] or away from 'That' place of Understanding."

And, pray, what is "this" RIGHT UNDERSTANDING?

It is that ALL is ONE. It is LIFE. And, this “life substratum” is ONE.

This is ENLIGHTENMENT of a BUDDHA.

As in THE END, in SELF-REALIZATION, it is "found" that ALL IS ONE "LIFE", the sages and seers of India prohibit MEAT-EATING. 

As did BUDDHA.

Hence, who eats meat, is no Buddhist.

Buddhism and Vegetarianism: Would Sid Eat Meat?

“I undertake a vow to abstain from taking life.”

Buddha thus laid down The First Precept of his faith.

What doubt does it leave in any intelligent person’s mind about Meat-Eating? Any excuse to the contrary is willful, wishful waywardness. If, reportedly, Dalai Lama continues to eat meat, then, he, very much like other “lesser mortals”, strays from The Basic Foundation and The First Precept of Buddhism. 

So, how did meat-eating creep into Buddhism?

It happened when Buddhism spread outside India. The regions, countries it took root, had an age-old non-vegetarian culture. Be it Japan, China, Thailand, Vietnam, Burma, Korea, Tibet. And, now, it is the West.

All these “alien”, Non-Indian, cultures were also very violent and volatile. “Taking Life” was The Way here. Much pride was taken in one’s ability, readiness for settling scores. An Eye for An Eye prevailed. It still does.

Lastly, in these civilizations, spirits/devil/demons/deities etc. were a part and parcel of everyday “reality”. Hence, REALITY AS IS, or, the Realization that SELF is ONE, remained then, as does it now, missing. View of WHAT IS, as DUALITY not UNITY, prevails now, as it did then. Thus, there was, yet is not, respect for “other” life or soul. Be it so-called “higher life” (man). Or, “lower life” (animal).

Siddhartha, “Sid”, Buddha led a Non-Violent life. The Master preached ‘Ahimsa’. His teachings are distorted. Taking “life” is against Buddhism.

Who eats meat, is no Buddhist.

Do All Dogs Go To Heaven?

Fact is “Western Culture is based on Christian Theology.”

Were it not, question of animals having a ‘soul’ or not, would not arise. Ancient texts of India advocate that animals, from ant to elephant, all have a ‘soul’ like any human being. The Semitic Culture does not think so.

The West as also most of world, has a meat-eating/non-vegetarian culture. Why? Because people, whatever their religion, believe animals do not have a ‘soul’ like them. And, thus, think “little” or nothing of breaking the latter’s bones or beating their brains to a pulp. Thereafter, eating these hapless souls to their hearts content, the same “peace-loving”, “god-fearing” fellows seek “humane” treatment of animals!

In Reality, the “Beginning and End of Everything” (Simple Simon’s God) as found by Yogis and Free Mystics of India in “Self-Experience” is that Universe is “made” of ONENESS. This “ONE” “stuff” of “life” is THE SAME and ONE “here” or “there”. That is, whatever exists, latent or seen, of past-present-future, is in “UNITY”. Thus, in “duality” we see “other”. In The Realm of Ultimate Reality, no “otherness” exists. The Universal Quintessence is ONE.

Hence, those that do not “get” the TRUE NATURE of SELF; for them, dogs, like all other animals, are bereft of a “soul”. It is untrue. A lie believed in by the less mystically “evolved”.

In fact, most of us, the human race, are “dogs” that go to “hell”.

But ALL DOGS GO TO HEAVEN!

Spirituality & The Meaning of Mysticism for Our Time

Is Spirituality today, The Art of Union with Reality?

In our time, it is a fad to proclaim ourselves ‘spiritual’ than ‘religious’. Mysticism, the deeper end of Spirituality, is prone to usurpation by ‘twittering’ ‘Art of Wellness’ Gurus of East and West. Bookish erudition, sans ‘live’ metaphysical experiences, is fine so long one does not push it as An Attained Master. It is Bad Karma.

Westerners like ‘action’. Hence, to assume Mystics “become world changers/servers” comes easy to them. An Eastern Free Mystic has no such pre-fixed idea or agenda.

All that a “free” mystic seeks is ‘The Answer’ to THAT WHICH IS.

Imagined Union with The Divine is ‘Hath’/Enforced YOGA/Union. It is not Higher Spirituality/Mysticism. Mystics seek The Truth: Whatever-The-Hell-IT-May-Be. Visions and other such ‘happenings’ come ‘by the way’. A pre-conceived notion of Unity etc. is ill-advised. One is likely to be disappointed. A rare one, in The UNSAID WAY, succeeds. The rest, ‘humble’ majority, getting minimal visions here and there, become The New Avatar, ‘World Teacher’ or The New Age Messiah!

Most religions, practiced now, are born from these ‘limited’ visions.

The Eastern Yogis and Mystics place this ‘Lower Happening’ at The Feet of The Divine. They do not crown themselves with this ‘little god’. The Divine may make them the next Buddha. Yet, it may not.

Truth being our aim, Oneness comes along The Way.

This is Spirituality. Is Mysticism.

What is The "GOD PARTICLE"?

Relax. Take a deep breath.

This is the beginning of meditation. Rest follows, if one lets it.

The word “God Particle” is now days used by scientists in much the same way mystics do. As the beginning and the end of the “stuff” life is made of. Of course, scientists want to “see” it in their own LIMITED “laboratory conditions”. But yogis and free mystics (read, inquiring individuals not bound by any isms) are more open to THE UNLIMITED.

The Unlimited cannot be dictated to show its SELF in The Limited.

This is where Science and Spirituality differ. The former sets conditions on The Un-Conditioned Un-Limited Truth to “show” its “self” for a “freak show”! The mystics do not. The former lot approach The Unlimited with ego, the latter in reverence. Thus, science never “gets” WHAT IS. Yogis always do.

Yet, this “God Particle” -SELF/SOUL- can reach its “Source” in the right conditions: not “clinical” but “spiritual”. And, “trying too hard” is not enough! It takes more than that. Much, much more.

It takes SURRENDER to THAT WHICH IS. 

Hence, “God Particle” - CODE OF LIFE - takes a REVERENT ONE to its SELF; not the EGOISTIC ONE! Yet, science too will, if it has not already, reach this conclusion that WHAT EVER IS, ONE UNIFIED WHOLE IS.

This ONE, IMMANENT WHOLE is The “GOD” of yogis and free mystics.

It is THE ULTIMATE REALITY.

One may accept it. Or, one may seek and find IT. Our choice!

Eradicate Fundamentalism In All Its Forms!

We cannot be choosy with Truth.

Fundamentalism emanates from untruth. Intellectuals are either too full of themselves or too naive for their own and our good. They just do not “get” the “religious” mindset.

The fundamentalists believe in totality, not in parts.

As true as it may be of other religions, it certainly is amongst believers of The Bible and The Quran. We, the self-proclaimed “liberal” lot, are but heretics and “kafirs” to these “fine” TRUE BELIEVERS.

The belief of Bible-holders and Quran-hoarders is that whatsoever is written in these books is the “Word of God”. Either one believes or one does not. There is no such thing as a “half-believer”. 

Hence, there is no way out for humankind out of this mess that religion and science have created. Science knows a bit. Religions claim to know it all. But do not. Neither atheism nor religion in their present avatar, satiate intelligent people. Minds that question, seek answers to WHAT IS.

So, how can fundamentalist mentality be eliminated?

By seeking and finding The Truth!

Unless and until, inquiring minds become “Buddha”, The Knowing One, fundamentalism cannot be eradicated. Religion, if not defined parochially, means “to re-unite”: With “That Which Is” - The Truth/Reality.

Reality, as found by inquiring spirits that rely on FIRST HAND “SELF” EXPERIENCE, is that THERE IS NOTHING ELSE OR OTHER THAN :"ONE"! Once we know thus, who do we faun over, frown at or fight with? 

Only fools are fundamentalists!

"LIFE" & "NON-LIFE"

LIFE does not come from NON-LIFE.

However, The QUINTESSENCE of ALL THAT IS, life or non-life, is ONE.

So far as GOD creating LIFE; well, it is a simplistic idea of simple people from The East as well as The West. That does not mean their intentions are not good. It only means their CONCEPTION of THE DIVINE does not match THE TRUTH or REALITY AS IS.

From a YOGI or a FREE MYSTIC point of view, which relies on FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE; both the common lot from scientific community as also from the religious, make the same mistake. Both have AN IDEA about REALITY, not THE SELF-EXPERIENCE of The ULITMATE REALITY.

So, what is The TRUTH of ALPHA and OMEGA?

It is this: WHAT-SO-EVER IS, "this" or "that", is made of ONE, WHOLE, ALLNESS, IMMANANENT "STUFF", which, a normal being calls SPIRIT in REVERENCE. The Scientists and Science do not find, are unable to discover "IT". Not because they are not smart enough, but because they are not sufficiently attuned to THAT WHICH IS.

This - "WHICH IS"- does not OPEN UP to IRREVERENCE, or, to COLD HEARTS.

This is where a simple GOD-FEARING, not necessarily GOD-KNOWING, simple person scores over CLINICAL SCIENTISTS. This is where YOGIS and FREE MYSTICS succeed. It is where the clever ones fail. It is where the simple ones win.

It is the realm of THE DIVINE.

Redefining Life: God Need Not Apply

How do we define “LIFE”?

Science has thus far discovered that “STUFF” of LIFE and NON-LIFE is same. Does that rule out GOD?

From a commonplace and a simplistic point of view, having found no essential difference in ATOMIC STRUCTURE between Life and Non-Life, scientists may as well claim there is nothing DIVINE or GODLY about “ALIVE” humanity and non-living beings. In other words, this LIFE is just a CHEMICAL/PHYSICAL ACTION-REACTION taking place, without THE DIVINE or GOD playing any role.

This may well be true. But it would be a superfluous truth.

There is more to GOD or DIVINITY than a normal human being and a scientist defines both. The Western Scientists, and, therefore, most Atheists, influenced by the prevalent LOWER MODERN SCIENCE, think there is nothing divine about life. Thus, they denounce GOD.

These scientists and intellectuals could not be more wrong.

The FREE MYSTICS and YOGIS of INDIA have since the very beginning been informing us that ALL IS ONE WHOLE ALLNESS. In fact, there are freely available ANCIENT INDIAN YOGIC TEXTS for us to gainfully learn a thing or two even now. Therein THE SEEKER asks THE GURU that if ALL IS ONE SELF ESSENCE, does that mean even “SHIT is GOD?”

Thus, science, especially of West, has found nothing new. Eons ago, Free Mystics and Yogis of India found THE ULTIMATE TRUTH. Science is yet not THERE, to re-define LIFE.

Religion and Science: Respecting the Differences

Most people, scientists or religionists, who find no Common Ground between Science and Spirituality, are of West. They are familiar with Semitic religions. Not with Advanced Spiritual Traditions of Deep East; namely, of India.

Evolutionary Theory had since eons been advocated, and believed in widely, in religious theology of India. In fact, belief in 84 Categories of Evolution – from lowest of the low organisms to man - is so immanent in common conscience of religiosity in India, that Theory of Evolution is no issue here, unlike in the West.

Basically, Christian, Jewish, Islamic - Semitic Tradition - is the only culture that raises a big hue and cry about Evolutionary Theory of Darwin. It is a non-issue in better evolved spiritual cultures. In fact, the Yogic and Free Mystic Culture of India goes a step further than present day science. It advocates the hypothesis that not only does life evolve from lower to the higher organism, it is reversible. That is, it postulates a Contra Evolutionary Theory.

Recently, artificial DNA, inter alia, life, has been created by the world scientific community. Even this causes no excitement in India. The Yogic Science sees no big achievement herein. Again, much ahead of scientific thought of today, Free Mystical/Yogic Literature of Ancient India informs us that ANYTHING CAN BE CREATED OUT OF ANYTHING.

Hence, what raises the heckles of Semitic Theology, which majority of West practices, disturbs not a blade of grass in The Land Of Buddha.

Negating Women: At Core Of Catholic Church's Hideous Criminal Indifference!

All are equal before TRUTH.

In East, Truth is God and vice-versa.

The Semitic god, imagined in Male Form, is a lower religious belief in East too. Yet, in QUANTUM SPIRITUALITY, in Metaphysical Research, ANCIENT INDIAN YOGIS found SELF of ALL to be ONE UNIVERSAL QUINTESSENCE.

In Reality, this is GOD in SELF-REALIZATION.

Innumerable visions of lustrous gods, goddesses, angels, fairies etc. in human forms come and go in meditative practices. Serious seekers in yogic milieu detachedly observe such visions or voices of LOWER/NETHER REALM of UNIVERSAL CONSCIOUSNESS. Unfortunately, most don't get WHAT IS. In East this failure breeds GODMEN. In West it makes MESSIAHS out of men.

A rare individual becomes BUDDHA: The KNOWING ONE.

The METAPHYSICS OF AN AWAKEND ONE, from East, like Jesus was, is rarely understood. Thus, Christians, Church and West fail to grasp WHAT THE MASTER SPAKE!

Context being large, content permitted less, suffice here is to mention JESUS THE TRUE MASTER YOGI - DECIPHERING YOGIC/MYSTIC TEACHINGS OF JESUS. It’s on Display Live on GOOGLE BOOKS. Check it for AN EASTERN PERSPECTIVE on The Master’s Truth.

Nevertheless, in nutshell, “I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE” is what YOGIS in INDIA discovered as THE SELF. Identical was GOD-REALIZATION of Jesus. That is, our QUINTESSENTIAL SOUL/SELF in its MAKE is IMAGE OF GOD: in SPIRIT. Not in shape. In TRUTH, man-women-world-god et all is ONE!

Hence, who sins against woman sins against God.

Be it Church, Clergy or Christianity!
