No one can honestly say that he has realized the ultimate truth or Brahman unless he is soul-centric. Yet mystics and Godmen glibly declare, "I know God." and “I AM GOD. Such declaration is nothing but falsehood because God is not a form but God is a formless Spirit or consciousness.
The Bible says: ~ “God is a Spirit, and they that worship God must worship God in spirit and in truth (John 4:24)”,
Yajur Veda also says: ~ God has no image and His name is Holy. “(32.3)”,
Mythreyi Upanishad 2:26 says: ~ “All those who desire to have salvation without taking several births, should worship God in spirit and truth.
If there are personal Gods ~ prove it. If there is a Goddess -- prove it right here right now. Religious so-called philosophy dogmatically assumes the existence of an individualized God.
The God who appears to the mystic in meditation or penance is mere hallucination because whatever is known, seen, believed, and experienced as a person within the waking experience is a falsehood because the waking experience itself is a falsehood. From the ultimate standpoint, there is no value for such a claim.
The Vedas talk about Brahman which refers to the ultimate truth or ultimate reality. The consciousness is the ultimate truth, therefore, the consciousness is Brahman and Brahman is God.
Vedas do not permit idol worship. All the idols are of the Puranic Gods priests are referring to the Puranic Brahma as God they are ignorant of the God in Vedas even though they speak of Vedas.
Priests do not understand the meaning of the Brahman, which is present in the form of consciousness.
The Bhagavad Gita: ~ Brahmano hi pratisthaham ~ Brahman (God) is considered the all-pervading consciousness, which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (14.27).
When Bhagavad Gita says, that God is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material then nothing has to be accepted as God other than consciousness.
Lord Krishna says Ch ~V: ~ “Those who know the Self in truth.". The last two words (tattvataha) are usually ignored by pundits, but they make all the difference between the ordinary concept of God and the truth about God.
The dualistic worship of "God” is only for the ignorant populace. The God in truth is only Atman, the Self. In reality, there is no duality, no differentiation. Only Atman exists.
The Vedas confirm God is Atman (Spirit), the innermost Self.
Rig Veda: ~ 'Prajnanam Brahma'- Consciousness is the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth.
Rig Veda: ~ The Atman is the cause; Atman is the support of all that exists in this universe. May ye never turn away from the Atman the innermost self. May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman nor worship other than the Atman?" (10:48, 5)
How can you worship God? That implies two ~ the worshipper and the worshipped, whereas the God is non-dual. One can worship his idea of God only or realize his unity with it when he can’t worship it as a part.
When Upanishads and Vedas declare that, “God is the form of the Athma, and God is indeed Athma itself” then why accept another God in place of the Atman or worship other than the Atman. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
