No. He lies dormant within Brahman until one surrenders to Him, and then He comes alive as Paramatman to the Atman.Is God outside creation?

What is heaven?What is the difference in a God in "heaven" and a God on earth?
They are interested in being the authority, not in actually helping people.So when an evangelist tries to convert every person they can to their particular religion/denomination/church, they're just as wrong as a dietitian who tells everybody to eat a high carb diet?
Incorrect is what is a delusional thought or belief.So there is an opposite to correct then, which is incorrect. This is not "neti neti" which means not this, not that. You are saying "This and not that", which is not neti neti.
I said God lies dormant after He created the universe with physical energy and consciousness energy: the consciousness energy consists of the life force and the soul force that makes things happen automatically.When you say that God doesn't exist somewhere, you put a hole in the middle of it, like a block of swiss cheese. So the answer to your question is, you did. You said that, in effect.
What is heaven?
I have not attained any such heaven or nirvana because I struggle to survive: the UK State's mental health authorities has this morning asked me to come to a clinic to treat my persistent delusional disorder tomorrow.Heaven or Nirvana is a form of Paradise of those who reach enlightenment in this life. Example Buddha Sakyamuni created Nirvana where his enlighten followers enter after huan life ends meanin when we are outside of samsara we attain nirvana. But it is nota physical place (in my understanding)
I am sorry to hear you struggle with your mental health. But in the same case, do you think a God has mental illness?I have not attained any such heaven or nirvana because I struggle to survive: the UK State's mental health authorities has this morning asked me to come to a clinic to treat my persistent delusional disorder tomorrow.
Being dormant, does not mean is not there. God, or Atman, or Paramatma (can be understood as all the same), is in everyone equally, like the wetness of each wave is the same no matter the shape or form of the wave. There is no "dry wet". It's wetness everywhere.No. He lies dormant within Brahman until one surrenders to Him, and then He comes alive as Paramatman to the Atman.

I don't see an issue with this per se, but I see that Consciousness, and Life that all that exists arises from as being not 'other' to God. It is very much God, manifest in form. The unmanifest and the manifest are not other to one another. They are One and the Same. It is only our dualistic perspectives that divide this up in order for the mind to think about and hold these things conceptually. But conceptualizations, are not actuality. They are thoughts about something. They are thoughts, not the spans and depths of Reality.I said God lies dormant after He created the universe with physical energy and consciousness energy: the consciousness energy consists of the life force and the soul force that makes things happen automatically.
They are not all the same: there are living beings (and inanimate objects) incapable of realising the 'Divine' within through inappropriate genetics.Being dormant, does not mean is not there.

To see someone who does not Realize the Divine, or Spirit, or Self, or God (all the same, just different names), does not mean God is absent. That is impossible as the whole of Reality is a Divine Reality. It simply means that the person is not activating that in their life, not that it is not there. Do you agree with this?

I completely disagree with this, of course. Everything being a manifestation of God, or the Divine, is inseparable from the Divine Reality. Each can realize that nature in its own ways. A cat or a deer knows it's reality without definitions about itself to rely up to think of their existence with in order to connect to it. That a human's experience of the Realization of the Divine is experienced as Enlightenment, so too any living thing knows God in its own ways, and it is all the same. Just held differently by the different minds.They are not all the same: there are living beings (and inanimate objects) incapable of realising the 'Divine' within through inappropriate genetics.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I studied all religions and philosophies in becoming God.I completely disagree with this, of course. Everything being a manifestation of God, or the Divine, is inseparable from the Divine Reality. Each can realize that nature in its own ways. A cat or a deer knows it's reality without definitions about itself to rely up to think of their existence with in order to connect to it.

Genetics, has nothing to do with Spiritual realization, or lack thereof. The real culprit, is duality. And that comes through language and programming of culture.
My theory is that Atman is not Paramatman until one becomes God.Is is reflective of mine.
How can one "become" God when God is already everything that is?My theory is that Atman is not Paramatman until one becomes God.
It comes from being self sufficient in knowledge that Paramatma lies dormant until it switches on and off the life support systems of all living beings.How can one "become" God when God is already everything that is?
