The Absolute is not a God nor Awareness

[Michael K.]

When went into a positive awareness group many decades ago one of their
sayings about God was that it meant GOOD ORDERLY DIRECTION, which to
me is very positive and none too controversial.

Life and existence in absolute terminology too do not EXIST, they are only
a relative phenomenon, the real deal is found in the invisible NOUMENON.

The only one we have to prove anything to is ourselves, any other sort after proof is for ego validation to others. Reality is a matter of perception. But I do not view God as a “he” or “she,” as gender to me is part of duality and while God uses duality to create material forms, in its pure formlessness what I refer to as “GOD” exists in non-duality.

Speaking only for myself; the image of God is creation, a creation where we exist as human beings, while the likeness of God is within all that has been created. Within us there is a divine spark, which in my opinion is the likeness of God. This is just my perspective, and I am not trying to convince others to see things my way, as we all have our own perspective.

Starman. Yes I would agree with your comments above.

I use to think when thinking and pondering so hard on such matters of absolute- that they would have to not exist- not before life or after life- they would be pure than anything because they had no karma no intrusive thoughts or actions and be in a state of goodness not receiving death or life. Humm

IMO ...

The Infinite & The Absolute are completed thoughts of reference. Together they are the collective of Reality - but only in general terms... for as human beings go, we do love to generate symbolism.

They are imagery wrought by conceptualization - a process that we are all allowed to do as free will souls... and to do so is as diverse as the mind that explores its meaning(s). "It" is the collective of "Infinite/Absolute" .. though we may refer to the infinity of its nature and the absoluteness of our personal recognition of same.

The Infinite is no less than "subjectively experiencing" (pure feeling); than The Absolute is a method of "objectifying our symbology" (of whatever).

The Infinite is all that there is (you are feeling it, but you never know that you are). The Absolute is all that you can "put a finger on" (it is your substantial conclusion).

The Infinite is a compilation of threads, a tangled mass, of improbable, untraceable connections to the formulation of any ultimate thought - any thought that leads to an Absolute opinion, assumption, or delineation of reality - as your mind views it to be.

The Infinite is a source of myriad "points", connected and branching to an adjacent point (as so many fronds of algae; blades of grass; or fabric sewn into our awareness) to something as of yet undetermined, only "nearly" alive; only nearly encompassing and representative of what we chose to believe. The Absolute only "becomes" at the point we choose to snip and clip that thread.

For sentience, each Transaction With Reality (TWR) is the result of our brain-mind reaching forth to scoop out and grasp up something that defines what we may choose to call "sensible". We determine that sensibility when we clip the strand that has sprung up from the untraceable depths of an Infinite origination point.

The One can never exist without the Other.
