Where is God? - A question that requires more clarity

God is everywhere. We have learnt saying this. The unfortunate thing is that we do not go further than this. We are afraid to explore. This question is so important whether we believe in God or not. God is there in idols, as much as they are in saints and common people. We worship just one form of god. We have taken a portion of his heterogenous composition and called him God. The good part to it is that it works. I prefer saying that God is as much in allah as in idols.

But do you not question what was there before Christ or Buddha. Was there God or was there no God. We interchange saints with God. Saints are part of this cosmos and their teachings make people more tolerant, peaceful, harmonious etc. They are messengers who every time remind us that we are all God's creations.

I prefer to say that God is in water, in the mountains, in yourself and in every other entity in the universe. God does not have flesh, blood nor do they have any form that we can perceptually visualize.

But All Saints are Great as messengers and every time we have philosophical or moral question we go to his teachings. Hindus fortunately have great many gods. We can worship one god or another. We must never forget that we are worshipping one form of God which is a part of the God as a whole. We shall never be able to see god but in nature's creations.

Things both around you and within you are nothing but God. Adieu!
