On God's Presence

[Nemra]

When I see existence itself as the fundamental truth, then God starts to make total sense, because nothing remains outside of it.

But why specifically God?

Because existence is infinite.

There can't be a limit to what could exist, even if my experience has certain limits. However, the limitations of my experience exist. If existence were limited, there wouldn't be any kind of experience.

Thus, the differentiation of God and I is seen as illusory.

And I start to notice that God must have been ever-present in all of my experience.

God must be experiencing, not the human.

You are the aperture through which the universe -God, is aware of itself.

What confuses me about god is god’s substance or what is god in itself . By being infinite and all pervading he (it) must be nothing . that’s the truest and most essential nature of god. It has to be that way . It can’t be anything else because any formed substance would be limited and incomplete and therefore cannot be god . On the other hand when you look at the manifest world or all of creation .. the sun and earth and planets orbiting with consistent motion..the living creatures with consciousness and complex designs (it’s a design . Evolution can’t design a butterfly out of randomness) etc then you conclude that there is a designer or god but I don’t know how could god create when he was in the godhead (nothing ). It should remain nothing forever . The answer I hear is there is no ultimate difference between nothing and something but still there is something incomprehensible about a pure formlessness giving rise to intelligence and design .
