A question like this begins with questions-Why am I here?, What am I here for? How or what created me? Why is there evil? And what is the relationship of civilization with moral and conscience ascriptions?
Justice, morals, ethics, freedom. This is not God. Peaces, bliss, enlightenment. This is not God.
If these are not God what is God?
Consciousness and formless energy. This is God, Godhead or Source.
As everything in this cosmos was formed from energy and energy which is conscious (having properties, eventually which can be measured, detailed, explained and contained) it is this Source of cosmic creation that all religions try to speak of.
Is Jesus, Babaji, Shiva, Lakshmi or even Buddha a God? While it may seem like Shiva is a God and Jesus, Buddha or Babaji are not, truly they all encompass what it means to be divine.
As consciousness expands (like Darwins theory on evolution) and one becomes more able to consciously manifest the awareness of Source, how to alter matter and why Source develops Gods’ all become recognizable, understandable and easy to achieve.
Something that has to be understood is there is a Source or Godhead although the nature of this Identity is not something that is personable like a man in the sky, something or someone you”ll meet when you die, or even some dictator that creates or doesn’t create.
As soon as you give a characteristic (yes even the arbitrary Omnipotency, Omniscience, Omnitemporal and even at times Omnipresent-although hard to theorize or understand fully) to this Source it becomes dependant not on Source but some arbitrary dualitic principle. This is not Pure Source. Source is devoid (although can become dualistic when given a characteristic) of duality. It is neither male, nor female, neither up nor down, not in nor out, or even black or white. It is almost like the prism which refracts white light creating a multitude of rainbow colours (although it would not be white light as this is a characteristic).
Does this mean that God, Godhead or Source is somehow not alive? As science and even religion understands Source is much alive. Energy or consciousness (the purity of form) is wisdom, intelligence, creativity, beauty, innate and even power. The most perfect description of Source is Perfection.
Source does not die, is not damaged, can not be bruised, is not consumed, can create/maintain/destroy, is able, manifests, knows what to do, and is not dependant on anything.
Science uses the term consciousness or energy, while religion uses the concept of God. While it does not matter if it is a term to relate to atheism or a term to invoke spirituality the nature of Consciousness although harder to navigate, control, understand, measure or even evoke is still testable, measurable, understandable and evokable by man, science, religion and even nature.
