WHAT IS GOD?

When we look at things around us, we never feel them to be a miracle. We are so much indulged in and used to spending life with them that, we never bother to stop and ask ourselves- “Just where did they come from?”, this is a difficult question, of course. When a person finds something which is difficult, is unimportant, he stops bothering about it. The person must be unique, someone like Einstein to do just the opposite.

A layman shows the stars and the moon to his child to make the child eat his meal. The role of the moon or the stars in his life is limited to his child’s meal and never will it extend to his thoughts.

          Think about the Theory of Origin of Universe- ‘The Big Bang Theory’. That, a particle of enormous density exploded to bring the Universe into existence, is well accepted. But where did that particle come from? Something cannot come out of nothing. That particle obviously was born due to some power. That power can be called as ‘God’.

Of course, God is not as we imagine. We have confined the existence of God to Earth. If he were an ‘Earthian’, Earth would not have been created like any other heavenly body, without any special effects. Of course, Earth has life, but we cannot say that no other body in the Universe has life.

Non-believers of God demand the physical existence of God to be proved to them. A man after listening to a preacher, who was preaching about God and his miracles, asked the preacher to show him God. The preacher, without saying anything, hit the person’s head with a stone. Blood started oozing out and the man yelled with pain. The preacher asked the person if it was paining. The man said that, it was. The preacher asked him to show the pain, to which the person replied that he couldn’t. The preacher then said that he could see the man yelling but not the pain which was the cause. So by the same token, one could see the miracles of God, but not God himself.

    The preacher was a wise person. He knew the God is not in idols. He is universal and does not have a physical existence. Then, how is God? Maybe, he is a mass of infinite energy.
