GOD--formless??

GOD

This topic is the most basic yet difficult to get through. The point of difficulty is the simplicity of THE ALMIGHTY.

I have pondered over this issue again and again, and will continue to do till I find a solution of it. Before I pen down all my views about the god and all my experiences I would like to mention, what made me incline toward god like the way I was never devoted. After my schooling I dropped a year to prepare for my entrances, during this period I did less of studying my course book, preparation material and read A book, just 1. It was collection of 11 fables describing the greatness of Shrimad Bhagwat Gita,in a way.

I read that book again and again, same stories and every time I read they were as engrossing as they were when first read, each story has a moral and is based on a verse from Gita. If 11 verses can have this mesmerizing effect, my intellect limits me to truly explore the greatness of Gita.

So this lead to my inclination towards god and I was eager to explore more and more of god, but being a loon I didn’t try to explore even my passion(this has been a problem with me, serious issue and no motivational books, thoughts, ideas ………made me change my “shitty” attitude towards my passion). But somehow things happen and I found a channel which, if didn’t help me to know more of god, certainly increased my doubts about the almighty. It was an Islamic channel, my previous blog had mention of it.

The most basic doubt I have is “Is God one and formless”??

If yes, then why in Hinduism there exist as many as 16 Crore (or even more), even when the Vedas and the Upnishads say that there is only 1 god, yet Hindus have many. Whereas Islam suggests the ideology of 1 god and they practice the same(they consider worshipping many god as shirk or a sin), the word ”ALLAH” means one and only one with none next to him/her(or what to say, please suggest). After reading to a book by a Hindu scholar, about Hinduism suggests that the various forms of god that we Hindus worship is actually to depict the fact that we are form him and since with limited thought and idea and mental power we have, we assume him to be of form that we can understand, recognize and praise and this diversity of god in Hinduism, though saying 1 god theory has made Hinduism, according to Christian Bernard Shaw, the most tolerant religion in world. This scholar also suggest that buffalos if has to think of their god, they will assume him to be a very big buffalo, much larger than their size, yet a buffalo, in support of Hindus depicting the god in human form. MY DOUBTS ARE YET NOT ANSWERED, yet these theories seemed perfect in every sense.

Please if you are reading this post, help me out with this.

1) i) I feel god is one

2) ii)God I assume to be formless and featureless, similar to energy, no mass no form.

3) iii) Yet I feel god must have a form for human to help understand god.

If you any book that has teaching of Gautam Budhha please post me the link, because he’s the enlightened soul and can help me in my search.

Early morning bazaar

Note:- I don't know if waker is the right word,but I used it thinking of person who is awaken.If u know the right word,please take the pain and leave it in comment.Proceed to reading :)



delhi,5:00 am---Rain yesterday brought chill to this season and I was feeling a bit extra (rather, more than just extra). The place I'm talking about is the nearby marketplace,where I went to get hold of an autorickshaw.
Chill that I was feeling was enough to shake me till my backbone...it was so cool,,,chill was chilli.
The scene in the market is what was so mesmerising and compelling me to write something about it.
I had the privelege of getting up early in the morning,thanks to dad for it,the practice I abandoned since I passed out my High School examination...so the feeling of getting early was long gone and I must say,its absolute great to be awake early morning provided you went to bed 5-6 hrs prior to it.
Hmmmm,so the market place,the actual topic,it was similar to what to be expected at 5:00 am...a police Gypsy,next to the police post,with all its light on(they were functional!!!! :) )ready to charge as and when commanded,some hawkers half awake and perplexed over whether its morning or night still,few vehciles moving as if some qualifiers of F1 is going around,huh..and few shops open,they were never closed,intention to gain 24x7 could be the reason. the high mast light making the place look cool that it never looked with people crowding it and vehciles overcrowding it,the honking and those trins trins....phew...Morning bazaar is much more cooler,provided shops are open.

As I looked up,I found moon was now growing in size day by day to become a full mooon...and remark the end of Ramadan and beginning of feasting...the gibbous moon was shining as brighly as star and I doubted this fact that it has no light of its own!!!
surprising,no??

well I,early waker,was in happy state to jot the points as soon as I got the chance,its 5:30 in the morning.......and i must say early wakers are gainer (I neva cared for it, :( )
