Let me know when someone uses anything other than the tool of Imagination for God.
According to yoga philosophy this universe is the imagination of God but at the same time is all real for those who play the role in his imagination.
Very hard to believe but you never know what is real and what is not.
What a surprise would be if one day you will have to face this God?
He may say to you ............. you cheeky boy.....you thought you could live outside my imagination eh!
Why is that you (and others) assume that a reckoning with god is imminent?
No, let me be more to the point:
Why is it that you assume that other people are heading for a inevitable reckoning with god?
Could it be the very god-complex condition I mentioned in my previous post?
By that I simple mean that (a) we are so important that our conduct and beliefs must be evaluated post mortality and (b) that you (and others like you) are somehow privileged to god's particular criteria on this matter.
Do you understand the point I'm making?
Everthing you think you know about god is actually a mere projection of what you know of yourself and what YOU value.
If there is a higher power, doesn't it stand to reason that we would have no idea how that power operates or works?
Don't you think it's ridiculous and small minded to minimize such a power or force by lowering it to human pettiness and terms?
I'll answer for you. The answer is yes it is ridiculous. But it's consistent with the method that is almost always used while inventing god.
