The total concept of God

The total concept of God
God comes down to the world of human beings by entering a human body



Krishna gave two statements in the Gita. The first statement is that He is unimaginable because nobody can know Him (Maam tu veda na kashchana …). The second statement is that He entered a human body (manushim tanumaashritam …). These statements together give the total concept of God. God is beyond spatial dimensions and hence, He is beyond imagination. In order to preach the spiritual knowledge, to give the correct direction to the humanity, He comes down to the world of human beings by entering a human body (a particular deserving devotee existing at that point of time, also called as ‘Son of God’).


 The human body means a human being. The inert material body associated with inert energy consisting of awareness with different feelings (jeeva) is the human body. Human body does not mean mere inert body containing inert matter and inert energy only. Such a body cannot be even a living body due to absence of life. If you say living body, it may mean the body of a bird or an animal also. Such living body cannot deliver the knowledge to the human beings.

The total concept of God

This reminded me of the lesson I learned from this one book that I read.

“God is the best person you can be.”


We can’t know that unless we accept that God is within us which base on the concept of God enters a human being for us to know Him and for him to be known.

It is when we ask ourselves, “What would God do?” in face of a certain situation where we can’t simply decide.  God’s presence within us helps us perform the best task, or do what is good or what is right.
