From a TED talk on faith and religion: The ideal religious concept is not to show
GOD as an individual demanding respect and ordering punishments. This
individualized male/female GOD is only a concept for immature minds to follow
cultural and ethical behaviors. When a
person looks out on the voluminous sky to find stars, planets and other
millions of objects in space realizes how minor his ego and his individual
'space' is, how small his/her power is compared to the universe (Brahmandam),
how insignificant his/her demands and creation are compared to the overall
creations in this universe, there comes a humbleness and knowledge to his personality. The more the person dwells on this thought,
the more it becomes clear there is some power behind all this universe which is
way beyond the human understanding. This
awareness is spirituality and a concept that the unique supreme power behind
all this is the true GOD.
Hari Om.
Hari Om.
