An imaginary comforter. An psuedo-explanation for the unknown.

God is a one being, yet we understand Him in three perfections: Absolute Reality, Pure Consciousness and Primal Soul. As Absolute Reality, God is unmanifest, unchanging and transcendent, the Self God, timeless, formless and spaceless. As Pure Consciousness, God is the manifest primal substance, pure divine love and light flowing through all form, existing everywhere in time and space as infinite intelligence and power.God is all and in all, great beyond our conception, a sacred mystery that can be known in direct communion.
God is all and in all, one without a second, the Supreme Being and only Absolute Reality. He is Pati, our Lord, immanent and transcendent. To create, preserve, destroy, conceal and reveal are His five powers.
The Vedas explain, "Self-resplendent, formless, unoriginated and pure, that all-pervading being is both within and without. He transcends even the transcendent, unmanifest, causal state of the universe."

I am God

let me tell you something which i have been shunned for.
this is truth whether you wish to believe it or not.
WE are God - for very good reasons, i shall explain.
our immediate experience of God is through mental input by others.... language.
then our second experience of it is enforcing those words with meaning and belief. BUT our personal expression and perception of God is all and everything to do with the individual.
can God exist if we didn't believe so? and who would be left to believe (or what), if there was no found religion or beings to think him up?
God is a reflection of self. but if you want to go deeply into it; God seperately is also you. or a part of.
it is very confusing but i've known some stuff since a child which no one has taught me - i found out for myself.
''God'' knows we make him (it isn't a him but for this i will have to use it) up, but ironically thats how he exists.
all these people who are religous (which by no means is wrong, i am not completely predjudice) think of God as all that is love, The Spirit, a little man who sits on a cloud (lol)
i would beg to differ.... you can never fully understand something you haven't created; so therefore God is _out of mind_ because we didn't create it/Him/Her.
same as the ant who may not know what is beyond the blade of grass.... we are merely the cells in that blade of grass - and if we knew the truth i think we would be too terrified - not enlightened.
don't ever label it.
this ''God'' works in ways that are too confusing. and perhaps i will get ridiculed for my answer, but everyones alowd their say.
laters
P.s it isn't confusing in an obvious sense... you will found out one day what i mean

What is the nature?
God is love, God is respecting other people, regardless what the churches say.

The creative ENERGY (not being) of the Universe.
Pretty much, "God" would be the purpose for the Big Bang.
Of course this creative energy is no more a spirit or a being than gravity, but of course I believe you should have the right to worship gravity and other concepts and principles if you so choose.

God is the creator of the universe and everything in it who holds the power in his hand over everything. He made humans as well and has the right to tell them how to live. Although we cannot see him, he is always with us and we can see the effects of his prescence. It's like the wind, you can't see it but you can see what it does. God is not seen but when people believe in God and have him as a part of their lives you can see a difference in the way they act, talk, and live their lives. God exists as three different beings in one. He is God the father, who is the creator and sustainer; he is God the son or Jesus who died and rose again as the savior of man and the only way for anyone to get to heaven; and God the spirit who is the Holy Spirit that convicts people of their sin and gives them strength to do wha'ts right. This is best illustrated by looking at an egg. It has three parts, the shell, white, and yolk yet it is still one egg. The same with God. He is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit yet still one God. God requires holy living because he cannot tolerate sin since he is perfect. In order for anyone to spend eternity with him after they die, they must accept his son Jesus as their savior and lord and become like him by following the Bible and what it teaches. if you have questions read the book of John in the new testament of the Bible.

God only knows.
All religions have a God. I personally believe that God was invented by man because we all need something to believe in.
Best to believe in yourself.

An Omnipotent Father figure who made and controls all.
Born of ignorance, alive through blind faith.
