Is The Almighty God Omnipresent?

One morning a group of people gathered on the road to our house. When I asked one, he said “Nothing Sir, someone jokingly called his seven-year-old child a ‘monkey, a donkey, and they are taking it seriously”. I am mentioning this above incident here because we cannot tolerate even a small child in our house […]

One morning a group of people gathered on the road to our house. When I asked one, he said “Nothing Sir, someone jokingly called his seven-year-old child a ‘monkey, a donkey, and they are taking it seriously”.

I am mentioning this above incident here because we cannot tolerate even a small child in our house jokingly, even in the presence of monkeys, donkeys…! And the holy Supreme God is the Sarveshwar, is it fair to assume that he is everywhere, in all living souls, in things, in thorns, in us, in you, in pigs, in crocodiles, in turtle, snakes, and in particle by particle. And many people believe that the God is present in five elements also i.e. in water, air, fire, earth, and sky as a Jaldevi, Vayudev, Agnidev, Bhumata, and Surya Dev.

Just think man according to his deeds is called Holy Spirit, Sinful Spirit, Mahatma, Dharmatma, Puny atma, Dev atma. If a person has a supreme God, can he commit murder, robbery, rape, corruption, adultery ………, such evil deeds? The glory of God is immense. God blessing everyone, is it possible to do such lowly, sinful actions? If we have the Supreme Father, then why do we worship, pray, Namaz…etc. by building a temple, church, mosque, and gurudwara. Why do we build a room of worship? If he is in sages, then why should sages seek God and wander in the Himalayas for peace of mind. If God is in us, then what is the need to remember him in case of sorrow, pain, and illness? Why do we pray for the demands of our health, wealth, employment, happiness, peace, and satisfaction of all family relationships? Why would a beggar beg? Is that Almighty donor (God) a beggar? Is it that God is cruel to torture each other?

How fair is it or appropriate to consider God as present in the entire living organisms and its many incarnations? Such as pig, crocodile, monkey, dog, turtle, snake. What do these kinds of creatures do? Does the Holy Spirit eat Filthy like a pig? Did god eat meat like carnivores crocodiles? Is he poisonous like snakes?

One saint said, “The manseeing the serpent of stone he anoints milk, but when he sees the living snake, he starts killing.”

If we keep thinking like this, it is only a superstition to believe that God is omnipresent! Is He naughty as monkeys? Is He a mosquito or insect, pests? Does He like violence like a cruel beast? Or spreads dirt like dirty germs…? If He is present in thorns, stones, and each particle, then we only pick it up and throw it out of the way, which causes pain.

While discussing and thinking like this, it becomes clear that it is only blind to say that God is omnipresent. To say that the Supreme is omnipresent is a great insult to him and is disrespectful to his existence.

If it is said that the God is in air, fire, water, sky, earth, which are called panchatatv, then why it will become a wind as storm, fire as a flame, water as a tsunami, earth cause earthquake, and the sky element also giving pain in this period of time.

In this way, we realise that the Almighty is not omnipresent. So we need to know who the Supreme God is. And where is his residence? Vedas, scriptures, puranas, granthas, bible, quran…, the essence of it all says that “One Supreme Paramjyothi is the Supreme Soul of all souls”. But the methods of remembering him are different with different names. “Like the way we Hindus worship him by doing pooja, prayer, and light the lamp on special days. In the same way, Muslims offer prayers by saying Allah-Khuda Noor, similarly, Christian brothers say God is light. Thus many religions have many types and different methods. In fact, the Almighty Sarveshwara is the supreme one God, the father of all souls.

If the qualities, temperament, and personality of the father are in son, then we say a son is like his father. But to say the son is father is inadmissible. If we adopt all the qualities and powers of that God, then we can become worthy like such glory, but it is unfair to call us Supreme God.

The proverb known as “vaidyo Narayana Hari”. This means that a physician who is like Narayana can treat a person in a disaster of illness. But here the doctor is not Narayana. Once when the Guru of Devotee Kanakadas asked him to eat one banana at a place where no one can see him, Kanakadas said that there is no place where God is not seeing him. That is, the Supreme God is the master of the entire universe and he is omniscient. He can see everyone’s Karm-Vikarm-Akarm-Sukarm. But this does not mean that he is present in everything, everyone and is omnipresent.

We glorify the Supreme Lord with ocean of peace, ocean of bliss, ocean of kindness, ocean of courtesy, ocean of virtues, ocean of power, and a great forgiver…….etc. He is a resident of Paramadham, the third world, the universal Brahma Mahatattva, Moolavatan, Shanti Dham. He is the lord of the three worlds. Just like this gross body has a gross house to us. Similarly, the house of Ashariri— Akaya (body less), Abhokta, Ayonija, Ajnama is that supreme abode. Actually, the permanent residence of all our souls is also that supreme abode.

So Paradham is the original home of supreme God and almighty is omniscient but not omnipresent.
