AH Guest Writer: What Do You Mean When You Use The Word “God”? – Part 4

(Self- Realization, Enlightenment, Awakening)

Part 4 is the last article in this series. If you have not read the others, I urge you to do so before reading this one. Each part builds upon the previous articles,so please read them in the order in which they were written.

In Part 3 we asked, “Why is there so much suffering?” I explained that adversity is a natural part of physical life and that a great deal of suffering is caused by our mistaken belief that adversity should not exist. In my opinion, however, the main reason for suffering is lack of accurate knowledge.

Accurate knowledge of what? Of the most important subjects in our lives: the nature of God, energy, the Universal Laws, the nature of the world in which we live and our true identity.

(Why Is There So much Suffering?)

In Part 1, we explored the concept of “God” being both transcendent and immanent, and we looked the relationship between God and energy.

Part 2 was about our multi-dimensional Universe and ourselves as multi-dimensional beings. Also, we looked at how the energy operates in our lives, through the Universal Laws.

Now, in Part 3, we will explore the subject that so greatly disturbed Siddhartha Gautama, a 6th century BC Indian Prince. When he went outside his protected Palace grounds and saw the sickness, poverty and suffering in the land, he was so disturbed that he left his home and family to discover “why” there was so much suffering. He got his answer…and a great deal more. As a result, a huge global religion was established and the Prince became known as “the Buddha,” meaning “The Awakened One.” (“Awake,” has the same meaning as enlightened and Self-Realized, a subject that will be covered in Part 4.)

This article is not so much about suffering, as it is about adversity, because it is our concept about, and relationship to, adversity that leads to suffering. People can’t understand why God created a world in which there is so much pain, struggle, traumas and crises – especially since God is all “good.” Hopefully, you will consider what you read in this article worthy of your contemplation, and it will lead to insights for you.
