[FairfieldLife] 'Where is God?'

2008-07-29 Thread R.G. 
The last conversation discussed 'Names of God'...
And there was found to be no name of God,
Or 10,000's of names...

I do recall Maharishi saying that God was located at the 'Finest 
Relative...
And when one had the transcendent quality of consciousness, that one 
would begin to want to refine the perception, for understanding and 
for attunement to the 'Higher Power', your 'Higher Self'...

So, at the finest level, all these qualities of God, can be revealed.
I believe the atmosphere that attracted so many students to Maharishi,
Was his Darshan, which reflected this quality of finest relative,
and his own realizations of God...

But Maharishi for sure did not say, in order to reach this finest level, you 
may take any seemingly good vehicle coming along out of your own religious 
tradition. Otherwise he could have easily recommended that all Christians for 
reason to get best result ought to be initiated into Jesus as their ultimate 
mantra.

Please answer these questions on this site or the one listed above. 
It is for an article I am writing and for discussion to edify many.

1  If God is in Infinity and therefore beyond us, how can we know God?

2  If God is infinite can there be such a thing as one perfect
religion or best religion for everyone?

3  How do you decide which religion or spiritual discipline is good,
bad or not so good?

4  Should God be symbolized as Spirit/Energy, as male God, Mother God
or how?  What is the best symbolism to you and why?

5  Almost all religions, certainly most, espouse love.  Why then has
so much evil ocurred in the name of God?

6  If you are God in the yoga/Buddhist sense of the word, then should
you still pray?  Or just work on being God or finding the Self/God
within?  Should you work only on nonduality or should you work on the
dual vision also?

7  Which is more important, finding your own Enlightenment, or helping
others?  If tending to others interferes with your meditation and God
presence, should you ignore them or should you tend to them, even
though they disturb your inner state?

8  If God is within each person (as well as all creation) why is God
so difficult to find?  Shouldn't this be easy?

9  What is the purpose of mystical experiences; visions, voices,
dreams, revelations and such.  Are they good in any way or bad?

10  If you had to spend the rest of your life on an island with people
 how would you like them to be?  Describe the kind of people you could
bear spending the rest of your life with on an island.

 
11  When you see God face to face how will God look?  When you die and
go to Heaven, what will you see?  Explain what you think you will see.

Thank you for answering.  Please if you will discuss this here or on
