dear prabhu ji's cninu and terry
this rases some inreresting questions ,
Does God live vicariously through his Creation?
In subconscious state of affair,
from a vaisnavas perspective I would say , yes subconciously in some beings , but conciously through others , for instance in the incarnations of visnu , he manifests in full conciousness to fullfill a set purpose .
Does God live a life, separate to that of his creation?
In conscious state of affair.
as we are a minute portion of his creation we are a part of his life in equaly minute proportion . his life is that of constant creation and destruction those cycles are a by product of creation , of his being .
Does God have companions outside of his creation?
No, he's alone..very alone...always enjoying his conscious state of affair..always in unbreakble peace, joy and pleasure beyond the limits of time and space.
here I agree he is ultimately alone , he is the supreme enjoyer he is
'sat cit ananda' eternaly blissfull and full of knowledge ,
symultaniously on a conventional level he is also acompanied by his own expansions and creation .
Does God have interests outside of his creation?
Subconsciously.
by saying yes subconciously is suggeresting that even his creation could be on a sub concious level , in that creation happens simply by god's being on the otherhand as god is all knowing all seeing I would prefer to say that god is aware of all creation and all that lay outside of creation , therefore his interests allso lay inside and outside of creation .
as the quality of god is omni present , omni potent and omnicient , I am not sure it is easy to use concious and unconcious as such terminoligy is more suited to describing our conciousness
god by his nature is doing what god does and creation is the product of his being so it could be said to be unconcious but as he is omnicient he is also concious at all times , so his interests (if we can think that way)are allso far reaching and strech beyond creation into infinity ,
yet he is not thinking , he just knows !
Is God's Creation larger than himself?
He's just 1% larger than his total creation.
I like it
,
......... yes god is allways just that little larger than creation , even just that little larger than the sum total of all pervious creations , as he is also the creations to come .:bow:
Does God's creation include anything that he did not create himself?
No
definatly have to second that no !
Does God's creation include anything that he did not create himself?
Actually.. i always use to talk about the God who has created the creation... for the creativity of your above said God
being that god I am talking about is the
parameshwara the supreme being , he is the eternal , without begining and without end the , creator of all creations and the creator of individual gods responcible for the individual creations and the maininance there of ....
now it is for us of esch religion to understand which god we are worshiping and to understand that the true god by which ever name we know him , is the one eternal all knowing supreme being :namaste
