Atoms to galactic clusters .....what we see and what we can't....fission, fusion......science can handle all of of that - but not a god? Well excuse me if I don't think god is really all that complicated a conjecture, that I'm not awed by the word into accepting a statement like this.
If physical science could prove that somebody's concept of god really exists there would be no atheists.
Brahman Of The Vedas
Quote: Brahman is a necessary reality, eternal (i.e., beyond the purview of temporality), fully independent, non-contingent, and the source and ground of all things. Brahman is both immanently present in the realm of materiality, interpenetrating the whole of reality as the sustaining essence that gives it structure, meaning and existential being, yet Brahman is simultaneously the transcendent origin of all things (thus, panentheistic).
One can say that Brahman Itself (Him/Herself) constitutes the essential building material of all reality, being the antecedent primeval ontological substance from whence all things proceed. There is no ex nihilo creation in Hinduism. Brahman does not create from nothing, but from the reality of Its own being. Thus Brahman is, in Aristotelian terms, both the Material Cause as well as the Efficient Cause of creation.
Quantum Foam
Quote:Quantum foam is theorized to be the 'fabric' of the Universe, but cannot be observed yet because it is too small. Also, quantum foam is theorized to be created by virtual particles of very high energy.
Quantum mechanics can't prove that Brahman exists, though, because it's dealing with physical reality. It's impossible to use physical science as a way of researching something which is supposed to transcend physical reality.
