Does god exist? Is he real? Those two questions come up the most when talking about religion. I have thought about it for a long time. I have mentioned it before, if god created reality(existence) does he have to be a part of it? If we build a house do we have to be a part of it? The answer is no. But he did put some of himself into it. Just like we put some of our selves into a house. We put our time, our effort, and maybe even our compassion. A house you build yourself will have more meaning to you than one you buy. It is because you put something into it. So god put some of himself into reality, but that doesn't mean he has to be part of it. He could encompass it like Abrahim believes. That makes sense with what I have stated above and Quantum Physics. In Quantum Physics there is a thing called non-locality or the seamless whole where everthing is connected.
In Buddhism there is no god or is there? Buddhism says that a god or gods don't exist, don't worry about it. Which in a sense he doesn't. If he isn't part of existence then he doesn't exist. The focus of Buddhism is to reach a state known as Nirvana. This is a state of no state, of non-existence. I think that the focus of Buddhism is to Become released from reality and, if my hypothesis is correct, become something other than real, something more. If this is the case,which it is from my studies in Buddhism, then most religions are similar. Buddhism would be a striving towards God or non-existence.
So to me God doesn't exist.
Please post what you think of my hypothesis, and your belief on god.
