Does God Exists?

    The word "God" has a totally different understanding in Vedic Tradition from all the religious traditions of the world. In Vedic Tradition there is no "God" in a "form" creating and controlling the Universe. The 1000's of Gods in Vedic Tradition are Symbolic of the Cosmic Laws of Nature. Interestingly this clear understanding makes Vedic Tradition as "Spiritual" and not a religious "Theism".  By denying existence of a "Form" God, Vedic tradition is also not "Atheism". Vedic Tradition is a Spiritual Science with no Founder., like any other disciplines of Science. Nevertheless Vedic Spiritual Science is complete improving the quality of all walks of life.

According to Vedic tradition, there is no "God" (a person) sitting in the skies and creating and controlling everyone and everything. There is no creation of this universe but only manifestation. If it is a creation, then there is a creator who is different from the raw material he or she uses and also different from the created end-product and also there is  purpose for it. Then endless questions appear like where did the raw material come from for the creator to create the universe etc.

According to Vedic Science , there is only "Manifestation", which means that the creator, creating material and the end product of creation are all one and the same. That "oneness" non-duality is the core of Vedic tradition and not only do not contradict with any "Truth" seen in other religious/spiritual traditions but  also in tune with the discoveries of Modern science.

Since the "One" is manifested in the universe as several with a unique phenomenon, there is that common fundamental aspect reflected in everything. Only by understanding this fact, one can understand the core theme of all branches of Vedic sciences. Whether it is a dance or a ritual or medical science of Vedic science, all reflect this one fundamental Truth in it. The "One" that Vedic tradition talks about is the Pure Consciousness.

God: A Clear Understanding: It is very clear that in Vedic tradition God represents pure Consciousness, which manifest as this Universe. Since everything is a manifestation of the "one", Vedic Tradition alone gives the correct reasoning behind the definitions of "Omnipresent, Omniscient" etc because in everything there is the essence or core of the "One". Thus in Vedic tradition

How to Know God?: It is very simple and straight according to Vedic Tradition. How easy to know God depends on the effort one puts in knowing God. We have emphasized that only through inquiry one Understand the Truth of God. But that will only b e an intellectual understand, but to one to experience it, one has to inculcate that understanding in one's life. Living life in that understanding, one experiences God and that is the freedom one gets from everything, one returns to the original Consciousness, which is Moksha.
