Random thoughts on 'love' and 'god'

Random thoughts on 'love' and 'god'.


“Evil is the total absence of love” unquote, 'Cloe' in US tele-drama 'Smallville'.

'Love' is from Sanskrit, 'lubh', meaning 'desire'.

As Sanskrit was a language of ancient India, and used by the Wise Teachers and Practitioners of ancient Hinduism, I assume this word's origin, 'lubh', meant desire in it's highest sense, where the person desires only for the highest, which, in the Hindu Philosophy and Way, that highest desire can only be for (their oneness with and perhaps understanding of) 'Brahma' or, 'God'.

It may follow that lubh, or the desire for less than Brahma is not 'love', but a less pure, or more base desire.

Academics and pundits would argue, I'm sure, that Hinduism holds, that Brahma permeates everything, and is everything, is the cause and body of everything, so lubh for a fancy motor-car is still love for, or of, Brahma.

I would retort, therefore, that evil is also made of Brahma, so love of or desire for evil is also, following that argument, the highest way of lubh, of love.

And as the modern way, of desire for things which do damage to the Pure things made of god, like a fancy motor-car which damages the Natural environment in it's every step of production and use, this type of desire for the divine in a motor-car, pits god-against-god.

The one god against the one god?

All of course, based on the fundamental pretext that there is 'god'.

As in a person who is at war with themselves, a condition which is in fact where the person is 'occupied' by some malignant spirit, which seeks the destruction of any purity of the person's own spirit, or soul, the logic of the one most supreme god being at war with itself fails.

If evil spirits are also aspects of god, seeing as god is the creator of everything, light and dark, high and low, good and evil, etc., it may be that god makes evil spirits for some 'purpose'.

As contention, or friction, is also productive, perhaps evil is necessary for life to be productive?

Evil is the total absence of love, the total absence of desire for the highest, most pure, most primary, first state, aspect, element, level or being of our own and all other beings, and manifestations.

But what has to be produced, if god has made a perfect world, which provides every-living-thing with everything they need?

Things deemed needed, may therefore only be seen or believed to be necessary by the mind, soul or being who has not attained to knowing god, and, then, lost, wanders looking for satisfaction in things which are not 'from on high'.

Those who do not desire for any-less-than the purest state of dwelling within the fullness of a god-state, are the enlightened, and those who desire things made by artifice, by mankind, are lost and are seeking after god, but in a defective, perverted, corrupted way.

If so, then all of our modern objects of desire, mostly made by invention and artifice, serve only to distract us from attaining to that pure state.

But 'god' is indefinable in any way less than being 'in' there, 'in' that most pure state of existence, where there is nothing else 'occupying' one's being, one's body and mind, etc.

Hinduism says that god manifests in innumerable ways, and so can be 'worshipped' in innumerable ways.

But Hinduism also says, that to attain to the one true, eternal, infinite god, there is only one path, which is to turn away from the god of things, and seek to break through the veil which is the mind or the mental state, where all things actually exist, and climb up beyond all 'that' to 'this' singular pure Light within.

Hhhmmmmmm...

Not a bad attempt by a cynical, bitter-and-twisted, faithless and trustless Atheist!
