Answer 4

God is one He is the Supreme Person, Absolute Truth also known as Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, Rama, etc. WE are not God. We get sick, and die. Actually only our body gets sick and die but Gods' body is not made of material elements and is unlimited and eternal. Our physical body is limited and temporary. If one wants to get out of this illusion of the bodily conception of life the quickest and easiest way is to chant the maha mantra. go to http://www.stephen-knapp.com/chanting_hare_krishna.htm

Answer 6

"From the dissensions among Sects themselves arise necessarily a right of choosing and necessity of deliberating to which we will conform. But if we choose for ourselves, we must allow others to choose also, and so reciprocally, this establishes religious liberty." --Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Religion, 1776. Papers 1:545

Answer 8

REAL, REALITY OR FACT

Knowledge is a gain of intellect


Five Senses are windows which open in unlimited apparent and hidden universe and through which the universe enters in creatures and prepares a state of mind which can easily be molded in to language.This mind made state is a sort of transferable map prepared in the light of our experience and status of understanding.And whatsoever we communicate is a news and every news becomes knowledge.To explain knowledge, it is enough a statement when we say that our knowledge is a treasure of information based upon the experience and intellect.Therefore,whatsoever our senses can capture is our real,reality or fact.

It clearly means that the senses are the source to know, realize and capture the apparent and hidden things.

Normally, in the light of these information, the question arises that how can we believe GOD who is beyond senses? In the light of above information, the answer is very simple that GOD is the creator of senses and all the things which senses can capture and as nothing is like GOD, GOD can not be captured through senses but can only be realized as a creator of all realities, Therefore, realities belong to GOD the most real in reality.When we say “The Real GOD” it clearly means real of realities, creator of creations and all things and senses of the creatures.

GOD is holy above all ideas and cannot be molded in to an explanation of language, appearance of an image or in to the range of fabrication of thoughts (ideas or imagination)

Real God means a real above the reality, beyond imagination, as being the creator of senses.

Every mortal is actually a brain and mind while the rest of the body is just like a ring in the tail and senses are the sources which link the mortal only with the universe and shows not even a glimpse of its creator who is unseen and can only be realized through realization which is an act of heart and mind. Heart is a brain of unseen universe and the brain is a heart of seen universe. Since Holy GOD is unseen, GOD can be realized only with the heart and virtually GOD is heart-seen, Holier than all explanations and accepted by the believers as a real GOD.

Since all the concepts exist in the head, therefore, prostration before unseen real GOD is an act of acceptance of the state of belief. So, whosoever believes real GOD, prostrates to express the humbleness.

Holy GOD means that GOD is beyond of everything and real GOD means that through faith only, GOD can be realized as a real GOD and False god means unreal god and whosoever is unreal, is nothing. No one in creation is GOD and no one can be GOD or like GOD or equal to GOD or creator of the creations. One alone GOD means the GOD who created the process of creation and birth and through creation and birth, created all things and blessed the mortals with senses, conscious and intellect to realize the holiness of GOD only, Keeping in view that senses are types of hardware of brain which result software of realization which is an output of mind confirmed as a fact by heart. On an ordinary level GOD is realized only by the attributes of GOD and GOD is believed by the acts which GOD performs.
In the world of reality, whatsoever is captured by the senses, seen or unseen is real. In the world of faith, whatsoever is captured by the senses, seen or unseen is unreal and can never be held as God because the Real God can never be imagined by imagination and can never be captured by the senses. The Real God is Real; and can be realized by the creatures in faith only. After the acceptance of faith and practice of good deeds and by the answer of the prayers asked in the presence of God, God is almost realized by the heart. Once God is realized, God is realized forever and only then one can realize the reality of The Real God.

God says:
‘I and I Alone am God
and all other gods are unreal.’
We know all other gods are very much seen and can be perceived and imagined easily. Since, they are imaginable images, they can be destroyed and that is what makes them Unreal.
