Does God Really Exist?

[Drifter]

Yes, the question is the evidence, but who's asking the question?

Non-duality - the one question to all our answers.

You must respect the master then?
i give you Maharaj;

Let that understanding then serve you as God a truth/righteousness/goodness that leads mankind on its way.
If you are looking for someone to share with you a map of your individual-consciousness, Maharaj is That map.

Are you smarter than a tree?

The tree does not know it is existing.
I am not smarter than the tree, because I too do not know I am existing.
I am not existing.

There's just No-Thing existing.

Give it a second, memory serves. Lol

Consciousness, the Only 'Capital'

Maharaj often comes out with the statement that consciousness is the only 'capital' that a
sentient being is born with. This, he says, is the apparent position. The real situation, however, is
that what is born is consciousness, which needs an organism to manifest itself in, and that organism
is the physical body.

Drifter and Lorrina.

You are my thoughts.

I love you both.

Because my thoughts tell me that I do.

I have no argument with you, because you are only a thought.

And thoughts are really No Thing.

Thoughts are thoughts. Thoughts are things.
Thought is only a thought, until it is naught.

… was No Thing at all.

And that's what I believe. I believe in Nothing.

And that’s all it is; the rest is story.

Do not expect to take the complexity seen around of us and extend it beneath, for on that journey it will fall apart into its pieces, in the descension toward the simpler and simpler, even unto the near insubstantial, and on to the to the balance of the nothing of nonexistence itself. Complexity is in the complete opposite direction. Turn, turn around. Look to the future for even higher minds. Success.

Yet it is only human to halt after ‘answering’ a question but with a much larger one such as the ultimate and infinite complexity of ‘God’, for then the impatient brain can be satisfied and then even go on to declare it truth and even add more to it. Fail.


Heh, there's an idea - everyone "swap" sides and present their best argument... — Dywyddyr

OK, as eternity may have been going a long time, a life form with a much higher mind could have evolved after trillions of years somewhere, yet it is not God, for it is dependent on its parts. Darn. Fail. We need an instant God, one before all, He naturally having intelligence to the nth degree, even.

God is not possible because there’s nothing to make anything of, but ‘nothing’ in balance, and so no thing can be fundamental.

Evidence is noted by experiments in which something appears from nothing, these ‘sum-things’ being zero-sum opposites. RIP.

Love ya too Drift.

Very wise words.
