What is GOD?

[regnauld]

Who says you can be an atheist and a spiritual person at the same time? Dili man na sila mutually exclusive

Did I say at the same time?

I said I have evolved...meaning i was once an atheist and now I am A SPIRITUAL SEEKER

gETS?

I actually do. I was mostly referring to myself tho.

Hehe dont say you evolved tho, although it isnt really inaccurate. Meh... nevermind.

I like the word "evolve" and it has nothing to do only with physical evolution but with mental evolution as well. Having this OPEN MINDEDNESS makes me spiritual in the process... transcending limitations and materialism like richard dawkins.

And that certainly is a worthy goal.

I just find it... ironic. Its a non-issue for many of us, but a lot of fundamentalists who subscribe to a literal interpretation of the bible oppose evolution because the book says differently. But thats another topic, thats why I dropped that line of argument. I just thought of that when you used evolved and I found it funny for some reason.

Evolving has always had a physical connotation for me. Mental and spiritual things iv always associated with the word transcend. But thats just me. Connotation can be a tricky thing

I dont subscribe the Antropomorphic kind of GOD in the bible. I am ONE with Einstein's view of GOD!

No need to read from your advertisement brad. Its one of your strategy to deceive people. remember your cult or sect is founded by man just like eli soriano.

ka harsh sad ana oi...

hmm... and if you want to know what God is.. you would need to think out-of-the-box or shall we say, out from the bible

[Hellblazer 2.1]

For me...GOD is both knowable (Immanent) and unknowable (Transcendent)

For the GOD as knowable...GOD is energy and the source of energy!
For the GOD as unknowable...GOD is simply a mystery!

the moment you put "IS", mr.regnauld, you have placed definiteness already. and there is the trap. because definitions tend to stop thought. it would have been more prudent to say that, "God is NOT this, God is NOT that", rather than say "God is this, God is that." there have been too many people since time immemorial who have declared those same words. and too many people who also declare otherwise. and there, the conflict starts.

there's just too much God-talk, but not so much God-walk. sometimes, we have to walk our talk. we might as well leave God to each and every person to experience.

Well according to Paramahansa Yogananda, we can know GOD through meditation and he was speaking about the Immanence of GOD and not the Transcendent GOD
