My "New Age Perception" - The Goddess Is "Real"

[Confused Ape]

Just so you know, I was a Shaivite Hindu(very bad one) so I am quite influenced by the Shiva Purana. Allah is a name and I do not understand your fixation upon a mere name as being somehow different than another when it means the same thing.

Yes, Allah is a name but I wanted to find out what you, personally, mean by it. If I've interpreted your post correctly, you regard Allah as being the same thing as Shiva, whatever that thing actually is.

By Supreme Reality(Brahman) you are saying there is a type of objective reality in existence which is not simply true, only 1/3 of it is objective and the rest is subjective and semantical.

I haven't the faintest idea what the nature of Supreme Reality is, all supposing it exists in the first place. If I had to make a guess, I'd say that it's the ultimate reality of our universe which physicists are still trying to figure out.

Quantum physics somehow got mixed up with Hinduism. In the Preface To The Tao Of Physics Fritjof Capra, a physicist, describes a subjective experience he had one day.

Five years ago, I had a beautiful experience which set me on a road that has led to the writing of this book. I was sitting by the ocean one late summer afternoon, watching the waves rolling in and feeling the rhythm of my breathing, when I suddenly became aware of my whole environment as being engaged in a gigantic cosmic dance. Being a physicist, I knew that the sand, rocks, water, and air around me were made of vibrating molecules and atoms, and that these consisted of particles which interacted with one another by creating and destroying other particles. I knew also that the earth's atmosphere was continually bombarded by showers of "cosmic rays," particles of high energy undergoing multiple collisions as they penetrated the air. All this was familiar to me from my research in high-energy physics, but until that moment I had only experienced it through graphs, diagrams, and mathematical theories. As I sat on that beach my former experiences came to life; I "saw" cascades of energy coming down from outer space, in which particles were created and destroyed in rhythmic pulses; I "saw" the atoms of the elements and those of my body participating in this cosmic dance of energy; I felt its rhythm and I "heard" its sound, and at that moment I knew that this was the Dance of Shiva, the Lord of Dancers worshiped by the Hindus.

There is now a statue of Shiva in his aspect of Nataraja, the Lord of Dance at CERN.

Shiva's Cosmic Dance At CERN

A special plaque next to the Shiva statue at CERN explains the significance of the metaphor of Shiva's cosmic dance with several quotations from The Tao of Physics.

Saying that there is an ultimate truth is a fallacy as I can say that god is inherently evil because suffering exist in the world yet you could say the opposite.

It depends on how one defines ultimate truth. Maybe ultimate truth is just the ultimate nature of the universe.

So please tell me why suffering exist and why is god not evil because such suffering exist in the world. Do you even believe that suffering exist in the world?

The universe is what the universe is. It's ridiculous projecting our human values and concept of purpose onto it. I'm an atheist so I don't regard it as a deity. My subjective experience of a Goddess was just that - she's a metaphor in the same way that Shiva is a metaphor at CERN.
