Answer 1

Who is God? Where is God? How can I come to know God?"

God has no names, but all names are the names of God. Whether you call Him this or that, He remains Who He is. But in our tradition we call God by the loving name Siva, which is only one of His 1,008 traditional names. Supreme God Siva is both within us and outside of us. Even desire, the fulfillment of desire, the joy, the pain, the sorrow, birth and death -- this is all Siva, nothing but Siva. This is hard to believe for the unenlightened individual who cannot see how a good, kind and loving God could create pain and sorrow. Actually, we find that Siva did not -- not in the sense that is commonly thought. God gave the law of karma, decreeing that each energy sent into motion returns with equal force.
In looking closely at this natural law, we can see that we create our own joy, our own pain, our own sorrow and our own release from sorrow. Yet we could not even do this except for the power and existence of our loving Lord. It takes much meditation to find God Siva in all things, through all things. In this striving -- as in perfecting any art or science -- regular daily disciplines must be faithfully adhered to.
Siva is the immanent personal Lord, and He is transcendent Reality. Siva is a God of love, boundless love. He loves each and every one. Each soul is created by Him and guided by Him through life. God Siva is everywhere. There is no place where Siva is not. He is in you. He is in this temple. He is in the trees. He is in the sky, in the clouds, in the planets. He is the galaxies swirling in space and the space between galaxies, too. He is the universe. His cosmic dance of creation, preservation and dissolution is happening this very moment in every atom of the universe. God Siva is, and is in all things. He permeates all things. He is immanent, with a beautiful form, a human-like form which can actually be seen and has been seen by many people in visions. He is also transcendent, beyond time, cause and space.
That is almost too much for the mind to comprehend, isn't it? Therefore, we have to meditate on these things. God Siva is so close to us. Where does He live? In the Third World. And in this form He can talk and think and love and receive our prayers and guide our karma. He commands vast numbers of devas who go forth to do His will all over the world, all over the galaxy, throughout the universe. These are matters told to us by the rishis; and we have discovered them in our own meditations. So always worship this great God. Never fear Him. He is the Self of your self. He is closer than your own breath. His nature is love, and if you worship Him with devotion you will know love and be loving toward others. Devotees of God Siva love everyone.
This is how God Siva can be seen everywhere and in everyone. He is there as the Soul of each soul. You can open your inner eye and see Him in others, see Him in the world as the world. Little by little, discipline yourself to meditate at the same time each day. Meditate, discover the silent center of yourself, then go deep within, to the core of your real Being. Slowly the purity comes. Slowly the awakening comes.

Answer 2

God didn't explain all the facets of His existence. Most likely because we wouldn't be able to understand. However, in this day and age of science fiction movies we can get a better understanding. The one thing we do know is that God is a Trinity....

God, the Father; God, the Son and God, the Holy Spirit; yet only one God

Many people mistake this as 3 separate Gods (triune)1+1+1=3

However, since the Bible says there is only one God (Mar 12:29 Jesus answered, "The most important is, 'Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. ).

God is triplex...1 x 1 x 1 = 1

separate, yet unified.

Answer 3

There is one God, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, not Holy Ghost. Ghost implies someone who is dead.

Due to the enormity of God there are certain aspects of God's nature and being that are beyond to human understanding. The bible quotes " my ways are not your ways". We need to focus on God the trinity and not only on specific facets of him because they are all one in the same being.

This talk about many God's is merely people trying to explain what they can never hope to understand. Even one day when we stand before him in the heavens we will not be able to understand. Look at the universe in all its complexity, and ask yourself, "Is anything really out of God's capability?"

Answer 4

God has created, is running, and will destroy the Universe. God is the Origin and Destination of the Universe. God was, is, will be everywhere, God was never Created and will never die / be destroyed. God is beyond Life and Death. All religions of world teach human way to get close to God. You give your Best, God will give thy Best. Ask God for help and forgive, God will help and forgive you. Pray; Worship and Thank God for everything. Remember wherever there is Happiness in Life, there will be Sorrow. To get Happiness, you must master Sorrow. For Success in Life; Believe in Self and God, Learn from Past, Concentrate in Present, Plan for Future. Have control on, be the master of, not the slave of your body, senses, and mind. Purpose of this Life is to Gain and Share utmost Knowledge and Experience to differentiate and choose Right, Good, God against Wrong, Bad, Devil. Set your Desire level perfect or OK to be brave, no low to be coward, no high to be cruel. You have rights of Survival, Self Defence, and Freedom.

Answer 5

It is One God in Three Persons. Jesus is God, The Father is God and the Holy Spirit is God. Jesus is not the Father and the Holy Spirit is not Jesus etc. Where Jesus is so is the Father and Holy Spirit, where the Holy Spirit is so there is Jesus and God etc, etc. They are in loving communion with each other. Every person of the trinity is equal in power. I hope this helps. It is a mystery that we cannot solve but only understand it to the best of our ability, the ability God gives us.


St.Augustine wrote so much on the trinity - http://www.newadvent.org/fathers/1301.htm

So did St.Thomas Aquinas

Answer 6

One God (= Divine Essence).
Three Persons (= Father, Son, Holy Spirit).

Answer 7

Catholics believe in one god, the god. Who is actually made up of three different identities. The father, the son, and the holy ghost. So it is all about the three in one theory. At least for Catholics.

Answer 8

I've struggled with that idea and after some reading and consideration, this made the most sense to me:

1. God is god
2. Jesus is man with God's influence, the "hand of God", if you will
3. the Holy Spirit is that which ties Jesus to God, the aforementioned "hand of God"

That's what I believe right now but then again my beliefs are constantly evolving.

Answer 9

There is one unified God, but he presents himself in 3 persons,
each one completely God, and all three being the one God of the Universe and eternity. He was never created, but always existed, and everything that exists was created by him.

Answer 10

One God in three manifestations
