"Each should discover the truth by themselves. " and this discovery can be painful for some and joyful for other... but nevertheless an important one and you are lucky if you find someone to guide you through it.
Here i am jotting down some of my view of life .. right or wrong .. but my sense of things till now, of what i have realized.
I am ready to accept things and believe in GOD, but then there is no discussion. To me the joy comes from integrating the different theories that exist and reaching the same conclusion is different forms. Like some people like things to be explained scientifically, lets help the form the scientific or mathematical model which explains GOD, maybe not call it god (how does the name matter what matters is the understanding), or there are other who see GOD in idols, fine, lets help then understand the meaning of all the stories ever written (like the epics) cause they can understand stories more than concepts. The point i am trying to make is that may be there is one reality, but that one reality can be represented in multiple ways. And if we are able to help each find that reality in HIS form representation (which could include his religion, his thought process and his level of understanding), then probably we have helped the world reach a state of greater stability and joy.
At present (when i am still working on the integration theories) i believe in GOD but not as the creator but instead as the collective consciousness or the whole .. as the dot from where it all began to the dot it will all end in ... i am not independent of this whole .. because i am as much a part of this whole as is anybody else ... and this whole is shaping me all the time . I am just one of the nodes of a recursive pattern, a fractal. Like a river, which has tributaries and the tributaries then again have tributaries and so on, or like the tree that have branches and the branches again have branches. The whole looks exactly like the part, behaves exactly like the part and hence the part in itself is a whole.
The best thing about our being is that we can consciously choose the PLAY we want to be part of, and each PLAY that is being played (at a lots of level) has the potential to tell the whole story or explain the whole creation.
