Does God exists or not is the question that succeeds not only dividing people, but creates a tug of war within every individual thinker.

Does God exists or not is the question that succeeds not only dividing people, but creates a tug of war within every individual thinker. Ironically, if one believes in the concept of god then noting else matters and if one is an atheist, too noting else matters.  Those who have implicit faith in god bow their head in submission to what they call divine will. They believe the world is testing ground and sorrows must be borne with patience in order to prove their love to god. On the other hand, the Atheist claim the whole world is random creation arising, so to speak from chemical gravy that is accidental.  Both these arguments based on the false self within the false experience. On the base of the soul as self, the waking experience itself is mere mirage. 

The man and his experience of the world are reality with in the waking experience.   The waking experience itself is falsehood from the ultimate standpoint.  The man and his belief of god is reality within the false experience.  thus it is necessary to realize 'what is truth' and 'what is untruth'.  

 The waking experience is mere dream witnessed by the soul,which is the innermost self. Thus, all the physical based theories are mere imagination based on the false self within the false experience. The formless substance and witness of the false experience, which is the soul or consciousness  is real and eternal.

Innumerable people all over the world have been killed and being killed in the name of religion and god. This is because people are not aware of the ultimate truth of their true existence.

 People take their inherited belief as ultimate truth without verifying their  validity of their inherited belief.   One has to realize  the fact that, man and his world are  reality with in the waking experience, same way as the dream entity and dream world are reality within the dream.  

 The three states are not witnessed by the physical entity within the waking or dream  but  they are witnessed by  the soul or consciousness ,which is the innermost self.  The soul is the true self and it is the substratum and witness of the three states.  Thus, it is erroneous to view and judge the ultimate truth on the base of the ego or waking entity, which appears and disappears, along with the waking or  dream.  The source of the waking or dream is the soul or consciousness . Therefore, the source itself is the self.  Thus, the truth has to be based on the source of the three states.  There is no man, no world; no god exists on the standpoint of the soul as self, because the waking experience is mere mirage created out of the formless  soul or consciousness . 

The scriptures are self-contradictory because every religious scholar gives conflicting interpretations of them.  using one’s own reason  is the best way . there is no  need to give up the scriptures, but one should apply his  reason to them. Reason is common to all, whereas religious schools are separatist.

Religions  says "If one follows the religious doctrine , he will go to heaven and paradise, while others “go to hell," these are only  religious fables.

People assume  that God answers  their prayers it means He interferes and thus changes; hence he can't be relied on as the unchanging eternal one: he may even die, if he can change. It also implies that He could free us from our own troubles but won’t, hence he is cruel. 

People still think visiting gurus, saints and sages and yogis and indulging in god and guru glorification and yogic practice and meditation they get enlightenment. But all these are only for the people who are unable to investigate through inquiry and reasoning about the reality of their own existence.

·       How can the god and the universe exist without the man?

The universe and the idea of god are dependent on the man for their existence. Therefore it is necessary to investigate one’s own existence to verify the existence of God.

Man ceases to exist without the mind. Therefore it proves that man, god, and universe cease to exist without the mind. And it also it proves that all these things together is mind.  Thus the experience of duality which present as waking state is mind. Mind which appears and disappears, means it becomes dual and non-dual. Therefore it is for the seeker to discover and realize what is mind in order to unfold the mystery of his own existence.

People are thinking by killing the ego one can get enlightenment therefore they involve in all types of acrobats prescribed by the religious scriptures, gurus and yogis.  But is it is impossible to overcome the ego. Ego, man and the world, idea of god and whatever known and seen are within the mind. And mind is Waking experience. Therefore one has to overcome the mind or experience of duality in order to realize the true identity which is formless  non-dual Atman or consciousnesses.

Man has to make sure whether he is man or mind through inquiry and reasoning then only he will become aware of the fact that,  he is not a man but mind. Therefore his physical identity that is ‘ego ’ is not the Self. Therefore searching the self by inquiring 'Who am ‘I’ will not yield result, until and unless one knows what ‘I’ really is? Therefore searching truth as a person knowing the ‘I’ is not self is erroneous and leads one to intellectual hallucination.

It is very much necessary to know what mind is,  in order to know man and his experience of the universe and his idea of god and religion,  and whatever seen , known are part of the illusory experience which is present as 'I' or mind.  mind is in the form of universe and universe as waking or dream  and  disappears as deep sleep.  The  formless the substance witness of the  of the  three states  is  formless consciousness . Formless consciousness is the innermost self.  the innermost self is ultimate truth  or Brahman and ultimate truth  or  Brahman is God because consciousness is cause of everything and it itself is uncaused.   wisdom is only too  To realize the  the ultimate truth or Brahman. thus self-realization is God realization. 

The new gospel is that “God is not a believing experience”, “God is a feeling experience”—“God did not create man, Man created God can be accepted but only after they are able to answer who created man and the universe. Until unless they get answer of this question simply believing god does not exist is a foolish venture based on personal belief therefore there is no difference between religionists and atheist because both are believers of belief.  Religionists believe that there is GOD and Atheists believes that there is no god. Thus truth cannot be viewed and judged on personal belief. Religionists have to prove their claim that god exists without their scriptures. And atheists have to prove how they are able to tell god does not exist.  Neither the religionists nor atheist can prove their claim of god and no god belief.

If one blames Karma why did he make with the certain possibility of all creatures falling into error and consequent pain, as we see everywhere, which possibility he must have foreseen as He is Omniscient? No, the theory cannot hold. And if God is unchanging and does not alter his mind, what is the use of praying to such God?

How to resolve the contradiction when “One part of one’s scriptures say Atman is changing, another that it is immortal. Hence even by faith one cannot arrive at fixed notions of certitude. It is possible only by reason. 

The scripture can be interpreted in many different ways and hence can never finally determine truth. Every Realized Mind has different interpretations for example. Most Realized Minds take their own interpretations and call it philosophy.

Thus    only truth the ultimate truth is the only tool  . Those who have no capacity to think beyond their physical existence , have the belief in religion are like children playing with toys. 

Religion is not truth merely because it always shows contradiction. That is to say "I and my father are one" or Ahum Brahmasmi  are  merely a dogmatic statement based on the belief. Why should one believe it? If one asserts that the sentence must be interpreted in a special way, the immediate contradiction arises because one’s interpretation may disagree with others.

• v  How does one know that the writers of the religious scriptures have spoken only the truth?
• 
  
• 
  
• v  How can one look into their minds when they have passed away  several centuries  back?

Observe how one religion is inimical towards another. Why has God created them so? The seeker has to learn to view and judge the worldview when examining yogis' and mystics' marvels and one will find they are nothing but people's exaggeration or unconnected coincidences happening within the illusory Waking experience.

 The seeker of truth should not judge by the confusion of issues and say “He is such a good man, such lofty character, that what he says must be true." A man may be sincere, enthusiastic, having high character, but withal a shallow thinker who believes ‘I’ as self Waking experience as reality.

In the world millions of people are still in a primitive stage of mentality. They talk of a soul leaving the body at death, when a civilized man knows that nobody has ever seen this soul.  Experience shows that God has been unable to do anything either for one as individuals or for world.

Religionists say scripture is infallible. The scriptures are mere book of words! The words are mere thoughts.  When no one can peep  into another man’s mind, then it is impossible to see if the scripture-writers thoughts are founded in fact or not.  All heavens and paradise of all religion are imagined.

Any sincere and serious seeker can   discover and realize the reality of their true existence in lesser time and effort without the help of religion, god glorification or yogic practice.  there is no need to  condemn yoga or religion or its guru or god but it only says they are helpful in manipulating the ups and downs of  the practical life within the practical life,  therefore they are all part of the illusory Waking experience. But on the question of truth Waking experience itself ceases to exist as reality.

The seeker of truth must be aware of the fact that ,obedience to authority leads to loss of one’s thinking power; it is being overdone and harmful. Thinking must be combined with obedience and reason .
