Mechanistics of God Experience

TheVedicSite(c)2024

Atheism and Religion are philosophies. God is beyond religion and philosophies - and cannot be entirely understood, validated, proven or disproven by these alone.

God can be experienced as Impersonal and Personal.The intended meaning of these words - Impersonal and Personal, will never be extrapolated from words themselves.

We cannot define God with any justice using any intellectual tools whatsoever. The Intellect can only suggest via conventional language:-

-Abstruse abstraction which appears as oversimplistic imagery and labelling, attacked for its seeming juvenility.

or

-Paradoxical description, frustrating in its complexity and indecipherability according to the laws of ordinary logic.

To differentiate between God Impersonal and God Personal, Enlightenment (what is recognised as attainment of a permanent condition of expanded consciousness which is desirable and also rare) can occur as an Impersonal experience of God, in which the existence of God Personal does not demand recognition or acknowledgement.

God Impersonal and God Personal should not be “glued” too tightly together as one and the same, as their attributes and status are different.

There is no other word besides Personal that can be used to describe a particular experience of God (ie. God Personal), yet it is the most obscenely misleading word because of the way:-

-One might interpret Personal as being something directly comparable to relating to a being that is not God (the supreme being), whether it be a human, animal or other.

and

-Because of its subjective inference, subjective in a way which does not describe the paradox of having an empirical simultaneous subjective/objective experience which is the only context in which God Personal experience takes place.

Regarding use of the word Personal, there is no other word in the dictionary that might replace the word Personal as a better or more fitting alternative.

“The experience of God Personal” cannot be considered in the same context as “The experience of God Impersonal”. It Is beyond Enlightenment and it is not Realization.

The experience of God Personal happens not via Realization but Revelation. Enlightenment can happen via Realization.

In the God Impersonal Experience, the individual identity becomes merged in the oneness that underlies the entire fabric of reality, therefore becoming One Cosmic identity. In the God Personal Experience one has revelation of an individualistic eternal identity that has no beginning and no end and where one sees oneself through the eyes of God, from God's perspective. One is both having a sense of cosmic mergence into the oneness of reality whilst simultaneously having an experience of being in a dualistic relationship with God. This event is preceded by a plethora of unusual symptoms and can last for several weeks. One is able to remain in varying states of altered consciousness for several days without food, water, sleep.

An authentic experience of God (Impersonal or Personal) is not psychosis (as suggested by people who try to use rationalization and reasoning to explain it away) but rather a form of empirical “Sanity”. It may involve chemical or neurological changes in the body but it is not happening because of them.

Revelation (God Personal or Impersonal experience) and Enlightenment (as a God Impersonal experience) does not happen by Faith (although faith cannot be abandoned), but by “Grace” (where the human is the recipient and is rendered helpless to receive). Where intellect is a partial asset in helping one achieve Enlightenment (it is not necessary in every case, as also the rising of kundalini energies along the spinal axis can produce the same result), it is of no help in Revelation. Enlightenment is very rare, but in regards to Revelation (God Personal Experience) this experience is extremely rare.

The greatest obstacle to Revelation is

1.Deficiency of Virtue

2.Deficiency of Sincerity

3.Deficiency of Humility

Out of these Virtue is the most easy to misinterpret and defies simple explanation.

Spiritual doctrines (only referring to those that do not arise Falsely ie. False meaning those that arise without the act of Revelation) by default, due to inviolable limitations will always be incoherent for “persons under certain conditions”. God cannot be understood or known under certain conditions.

There are many who have “No Experience” of God which inspires them to conjecture that God does not exist. An Enlightened person (although maybe never having a God Personal experience), will not deny the existence of God, just because the attainment of Enlightenment involves an experience of God even if God Personal is not known.

Belief in God by itself does not guarantee upward spiritual progress.

True Knowledge will never be born from the intellect alone. The intellect decodes it but does not produce it. Revelation cannot be invoked by the human will.

A person can never be convinced of God by only another person, and they don't have to be, simply because Human Will is not the all important ingredient. “Will of Man & Will of God” are not redundant parts of this equation, they are its parameters and causality.

There are still many scientists who deny the existence of God, because science does not go beyond ordinary logic and reasoning to derive a conclusion. Wisdom should be given a higher place over Logic. Even if a scientist today is thinking they are incorporating Wisdom into their reasoning they will fail in their basic attempt simply because of the structure and boundaries within which they are required to operate as a scientist.

There is no way for a God Believer to come across to a God Non Believer as anything else but irrational even though Sanity in its most empirical sense ultimately lies with the God Believer. Conflicts do not always necessitate a need for resolution leading to peace and agreement, they are essentially conflicts.

On the platform of God Realisation which includes “Enlightenment, Revelation and maturity of ordinary intellect”, Paradox (as understood in ordinary terms) in relation to God exists.
