Metaphysics: Where God is?
Due to the word God seems to refer to the religious media only, to enlarge concepts and references, in this study-summary I will use the definitions of Universal Spirit or Cosmic Spirit.
Religious and historically to the Gods we usually find them in the temples or churches of the different religions.
Another particularity is that these God have been created by the man, most of the times to its image and likeness. That is to say, we have given ourselves the God that we must worship, as well as the teachings that we must follow.
Of course that we always justify this human origin saying that we have been induced, spoken or visited by that God, who has told us as much we have to know as we have to believe of his existence. But any proof of it doesn't exist.
On the other hand, in the temples or churches we don't see any direct proof of that God that the religions present us. Everything is statues or idols created by us and the hand of God doesn't appear for any part.
This way the things, anyone could think that how small it is that God that alone as statue in a temple exists. And what is more painful still, those Gods only exist for their believers and followers, for the other humans these Gods are absent.
Anyone can think wisely that this world just as the religions present us it is of so low spirituality and absence of God that we can believe that another ways, houses or temples must really exist in which our God can show for himself is all his extension and possibilities.
Then, which is it the true temple or house of that God or Universal Spirit?
Because it seems clear that the Universal Spirit exists and it is manifested through all the creativity of the Universe.
Universe is intelligence, sensitivity and creativity in all and each one of their points.
God or the Universal Spirit didn't make to the world in six days and later he rested. The Universal Spirit makes to the world in each instant and in all and each one of its places. This is the form of manifesting his intelligence and sensitivity, of creating and to feel alive himself and of making feel to all his creations (the humans) all these qualities and spiritual possibilities.
The Universal Spirit cannot be alone the God of the Catholics, Muslims, Buddhists or any other religion. It would be unjust. The Universal Spirit must be the God of all, so much religious, agnostics or atheists. And their house or temple doesn't have to be a church, a synagogue or a mosque; it can be the house of a shepherd, the mount or the river.
A scientist -that feels atheistic- can be during years in his laboratory investigating on any new molecule for the pharmacy or industry.
Because well, during all that time this scientist what is making is trying to discover a creative form that the Cosmic Spirit has invented and positioned in the Universe. Therefore the scientist is a true believer since his looks for a cosmic truth, which will share later with the other ones.
But his laboratory can also be considered a true temple where it is looked for the truth and the creativity of the Cosmos.
In this point, we could make ourselves a question and an important reflection:
Which is it really the house of God? It is a church where all their images are made and distributed by the man and where the hand of God doesn’t intervene. Or in the country where all and each one of the plants, animals and things are distributed, move, live and they are developed exclusively by the intelligence and the wisdom of the Cosmic Spirit.
I believe the answer is given by itself.
This way the Universal Spirit creates all and each one of the cosmic events and therefore we can find it in any place of the Universe. The only thing that we have to make is to know how to appreciate its creativity and sensitivity observing any place of this Universe.
Therefore we would have to say: “Almost all the ways go to God.”
A very simple and easy form of meeting with God or the Universal Spirit is to sit down patiently to contemplate the nature. Soon we will feel the greatness, sensitivity and intelligence that it manages and we will be able to feel together to this creativity as part of it.
--With the acceptance of the existence of a Universal Spirit a question would arise:
What does request or wait that God of us? That we adore him?
It seems clear it is not this way; alone it seems to have us positioned or created on this world so that we develop ourselves as civilization and let us know how to go discovering every day the greatness of the cosmic creativity.
Developing our intelligence and sensitivity with which we will come closer to that Universal Spirit can be his goal and ours.
On the other hand the faith is very well for who doesn't want to be bothered in going discovering the truths of the Universe. But I don't believe that it should be the illusion of the God of the Universe.
