Definition of God

In Deepak Chopra's wonderful book: How to know God, he illustrates how every individual will see God in the same way they interpret themselves and their life. Thus some people will believe in a vengeful God while others believe in a forgiving God. Some say God will punish you while others say that God is understanding and unconditional. Yet all these ways of defining God has an egoistic touch to it, which only proves that we are creating an illusion of God in our image. The best definition I have of god comes from metaphysical beliefs. Where metaphysics and physics merge you find some more understandable definition for God.

When you go into the world of atoms you begin to lose stability. An atom has a center made up of protons and neutrons and around this center you find electrons spinning in 'orbit' around the center. Einstein once said that if you can blow up the size of an atom until it is as big as a pinhead and blow all other distances up in relation then the closest distances of the atoms in stuff we view, as matter will be thirty-five miles apart. Now matter gets to be a bit less solid when you think about it. Now you begin to see why it is the miracle that it is.

The quantum physicists went further to split atoms and see what is inside them and eventually ended up with something like an energy spark that moves so fast it appears to be matter. So now matter falls away completely to be replaced by energy. The exciting part in this story is that they realized no matter how they tried, the observer always influences the observation of these quantum particles. Thus we can change reality and matter with our thinking by giving it attention and intention.

Imagine a world completely made up of energy. Imagine sparks of energy behaving as matter and thus creating the experience of it. Imagine something like the holodeck on the star ship Enterprise in Star Trek. This is what reality really is. It is the greatest miracle of all. When you try to imagine why this energy sparks do what they do and how they 'know' what to do you can only look on in wonder. There is nothing but miracles.

Now when you consider this reality I want you to consider another question. How is it that the same little balls of energy that behave like brain matter can also behave like a diamond? On a sub atomic level everything is made up of the same stuff and yet on the macro level some stuff is iron and other stuff is water. What lies beneath all of this that makes
