God

Who is God? Or what is God? I am sure one of these questions has come to everyone's mind at least once in a lifetime...

All the beings in this universe (and other universes, if proven) share a common thing - they are all made up of energy. That includes all human beings, animals, earth, the Sun, stars... pretty much everything that we can think of and then more. All the matter is manifestation of this energy. There is also some free energy like light, magnetic fields, dark energy etc.

But we use the word 'God' mostly together with words like good and bad, heaven and hell etc. I relate that with the two types of the active energy - positive and negative. All the good energies comprise of positive energy and all the bad energies comprise of negative energy. And then there is dead matter, which is neutral. It can go either ways, if influenced by either types of energies.

This positive energy can be thought of the God - or something that we are familiar with as 'God'. Consequently, the negative energy can be thought of as 'Satan'. And not surprisingly, we have heard many stories of either of them influencing dead material like stones/water/air.

Given the probability of occurring one event out of two equally probable events is half, I believe both of these energies are comparable to each other. Maybe not in this universe, where we still believe in good 'God', but when we sum them up in all the universes, they should be equal. If this is not true, it will be a partial world, and that is hardly possible. Hence at a given point of time in the fabric of time and space, God is what is prevalent at that particular point of time.

But to me, God comprises of both good and bad. It is what drives the balance between these two polarities. One such personality from Hindu mythology is Lord Shiva - he is worshiped by Asuras (demons) as well as Suras(angles). To me, God is in everything. And for me, there is a special way to worship him... which I will elaborate in my next post.
