Your intelligence can never imagine original God

Post #1

Any amount of logical analysis of intelligence fails to imagine the original God

The original God, having no spatial dimensions, is beyond space. If you want to see such original God, you have to cross the space. In doing so, you have to reach the boundary of the space. Unless you cross the boundary of Andhra Pradesh, you cannot enter Tamilnadu. If you reach the boundary of Andhra Pradesh, you can see Tamilnadu from there. Similarly, if you reach the boundary of space, you can see the original God starting from that boundary. But, space is infinite and hence its boundary can never be achieved. If the original God has spatial dimensions, it means, the space is in God. It means, you have not achieved the boundary of space. Your intelligence can never cross the spatial dimensions and can never go beyond space. This means, your intelligence can never imagine the original God.

Intelligence is the highest faculty having the power of imagination after thorough analysis. Any amount of logical analysis of intelligence fails to imagine the original God. Veda says this (Namethayaa….,Naishaatarkena….). There is no need of saying that lower faculties like mind, life etc., fail to imagine the original God. Life has very dormant power of thinking. Mind has the power of thinking but cannot analyze anything. Veda says that God generated the space. If God has spatial dimensions, it means that God has space. In such case, space exists in God even before its generation. This contradicts the statement that God generated the space. The mud generated pot. The pot is not in the mud before its generation. This is the starting point or foundation of the spiritual knowledge.

Well that leaves me out...

One suggestion if you don't mind. Be careful of the pronouns that you use. "We" is so much better than "your" in this instance. "We" is inclusive and doesn't single out anyone and divide whereas "your" is like pointing a finger at someone and making them uncomfortable.

Example: "Our intelligence can never imagine original God" Sound better??

:D
Please do not ask me to provide evidence of what I claim. I have no interest in persuading anyone to believe as I do.

Jew, Christian and Muslim... all equal in G-d's eye.

[font=Times New Roman]An intelligent question from an intelligent person.
I think you are trying to know your God by your mind. Yes?
But before trying to know The God, how do you know that there is a god?

"The Thinker's Guide to God" by Peter Vardy and Julie Arliss talks about this very thing.

If we have the mind of Christ, I believe our intellect can imagine God, because we are "Fearfully and wonderfully made." We have been made in the "Image and likeness of God!"
