Your description of "God" in 10 words or less

[BucephalusBB]

Feeling is the most effective communicator.

Much better than words and actions.

How many times have you found you were unable to find the words for how you feel?

How many times have you found you were unable to find the right feeling to tell anybody when the bus arives :flirt:

In fact, I can come closer to explaining my feelings with words than explaining standard situations with feelings.

Besides, as a man I must say feelings as communicator can be deceptive some times

 

[Ben Dhyan]

God is a concept for that beyond all description.

 

[Poisonshady313]

Our Father, Our King.

 

[Poisonshady313]

The Holy Quran Clearly Describe in Surah al-Ikhlâs - (The Purity)

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Say: He is Allah, the One and Only!
Allah, the Eternal, Absolute;
He begetteth not nor is He begotten.
And there is none like unto Him.

- translation by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

That's 35 words.

 

[9-10ths_Penguin]

I'm more interested in what you feel, as opposed to what you think.

It is the heart that feels. What does your's tell you God is?

Personification of human ideals and expression of desire to be comforted.

 

[blackout]

That's 35 words.

But who's counting.

 

[michaelm]

God is beyond comprehension.

that is why I cannot comprehend God, and therefore cannot have a relationship with God. That is why God is personified - Christ, Krishna, Ram. In my case I have a Guru. He I can believe in.

Without father, without mother, without beginning, without end.

 

[Cacafire]

egotistical masochist who had himself tortured so he could get off, presumably with himself.

Yes, that is how I feel.

<learn to count>

<take a moment learn about your fellow man and their many different opinions. After all real compass-- Is that your middle finger pointing at the screen?>

 

[TurkeyOnRye]

God is the light of consciousness within all of us.

 

[Aupmanyav]

Consciousness is an electro-chemical reaction.

 

[sandandfoam]

Consciousness is an electro-chemical reaction.

You state that as if it were fact.

 

[Willamena]

You state that as if it were fact.

Every good opinion should be stated thus.

 

[sandandfoam]

Every good opinion should be stated thus.

Why is that a good opinion rather than just an opinion?

 

[sandandfoam]

I'm more interested in what you feel, as opposed to what you think.

It is the heart that feels. What does your's tell you God is?

An idea

 

[Ben Dhyan]

Consciousness is an electro-chemical reaction.

One can generally agree with the gist of this, but do you place any limits on 'consciousness' in the context of space (infinity), and time (eternity)?

IOW, are you suggesting that consciousness is limited to a sub-section of all existence, or implying it actually is omnipresent since electro-chemical reactions are continuously taking place throughout space and time?

 

[Aupmanyav]

I was talking about consciousness of living beings (humans, animals, vegetation). Then there is a quantum consciousness, the consciousness of the atoms in a stone. That is the consciousness of Brahman (Coherence (physics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

 

[Ben Dhyan]

I was talking about consciousness of living beings (humans, animals, vegetation). Then there is a quantum consciousness, the consciousness of the atoms in a stone. That is the consciousness of Brahman (Coherence (physics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

Yes, again I am in general agreement with that.

It is my understanding that Brahman is the integrated whole of all consciousness, and reference to any and all other consciousness, such as that of sentient beings, atoms, galaxies, etc, are but focusing on one of it's 'seeming' differentiated expressions.

Thanks for the link, I share your interest in the mysteries of the electro-chemical dimension as a way of explaining the 'what' of existence, but when it comes to the 'who', it is my understanding that this is not knowable using this same faculty.
