Guest guest Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 How to believe that God exists? Vedas propound the existence of God and He cannot be seen "No one can behold God with his eyes, but by removing the impurities in our hearts and minds we can perceive Him with our intellect" Manu also expresses the same opinion. (Manusmriti, 5-7) "There was nothing but darkness before this creation. The whole universe seemed to be in a state of sleep. From this Tamas, (Darkness) Bbagawan, the Swayambhoo emerged in divine splendor and effulgence. Gradually, the veil of darkness vanished, God with his own will power manifested himself in an abstract, inexplicable, ancient, indescribable, omnipresent, omniscient form". The 'Vedas' further say: "Before the onset of creation, when nothing was there, only I remained.. I was beyond description. In the great dissolution and deluge also, only I remained. This visible universe is not different from Me. Ultimately, only I will remain." In the Bhagavatha Purana, in the Dasarna (Tenth) Skanda, is said (10-14,23): In our life from birth to death, we come across several phenomenal changes. Many riddles do appear, grow and vanish in our very presence. The planets like the Sun the Moon and the Stars appear in the sky doing their appropriate functions. Are these an admixure of the five elements moving about because of mutual attractive power? Or is there an Omnipotent Creator or Controller of the universe who conditions and directs them? Our continued search lead us to the inevitable conclusion that there is some unknown, invisible force that guides every thing and to conceive of it may be beyond our comprehension. The Vedas concur with the above. "God created the Sun, the Moon the Sky and the Earth. We are amazed at the super powers of God when we examine the birth, growth and the death of different species in the universe. It beyond our knowledge and comprehension to know the mystery creation, it's beginning and the end. We do feel that some mysterious divine force guides this universe since its inception." Hence, we feel that there is some primal, ancient, complete, indestructible, all pervasive cause for this creation and that supreme cause is God only, who is Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent and an embodiment of Sat-Chit-Ananda (ever lasting bliss). This indescribable power is known by myriad names. He is Parameswara - Parabrahma • Brahma - Narayana-Bhagavan - Vasudeva - Siva • Vishnu - Rama - Krishna -Jahovah-Deva - Khuda - Arha - Buddha - Allah - etc., God is one but He is called the Trinity - Brahma - Vishnu -Maheswara, (Creator, Preserver, and Destroyer.)
