The Sage Nabooru 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2009 We know that Brahman exists, but how do the gods exist within Brahman? Do we merely pretend the gods exist in their forms as a way of relating to Brahman, or do they exist as they are as seperate entities united from a common source (Brahman) as other beings and the universe do?

Sephiroth 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2009 Demi-gods exist within God the same way good (and bad) parasites and otherl lifeforms exists within our own bodies. In our bodies, there are a large quantities of lifeforms like parasites, bacterias, viruses etc which feeds upon nutritions which we eat and multiply using this nutritions. To them, we are God. And to God, we are the parasites within His body. So, just as a parasite could be beneficial or destructive, so are we to God - Good or Evil by our own Actions.
