THE TRUTH ABOUT GOD
God is the universal intelligence/consciousness that is best described as a type of energy that interacts with other forces of nature. Let's call it Y-energy (YE), because it explains why certain things happen. YE coexists with light, nuclear, gravitational and other types of energy, and can exert limited control over those, as well as over matter. In the early Twenty-First Century, science theorizes that 80% or more of our universe is composed of dark energy and dark matter that has not yet been identified. A substantial part of that unknown energy is actually YE. Further, the existence of dark energy and dark matter is generally acccepted, even though it can't be seen or proven. Likewise, you do not have to be able to see, test, measure or explain YE to know that God exists.
A Scottish physicist named Peter Higgs postulated in 1964 the existence of a sub-atomic particle called a boson, which interacts with energy to create matter. Some have even mislabled it as the "God particle." While Dr. Higgs was proven correct - such a particle has been discovered - his theory does not explain what controls those interactions and determines the results. Although some are indeed random, YE is the creative force that is primarily responsible for our existence.
God knows no physical form, but can assume one and has appeared to humankind in various shapes over time. God is neither male nor female, father nor mother, but can be any of those things. Yet it is improper to refer to God as "it." When speaking of Allah, Muslims use "He" out of dignity and respect. Given our experience, we will henceforth use feminine pronouns for the same reason.
God is not bound by the same space-time principles that we are. For instance, the speed of thought is much faster than the speed of light. Not when thoughts are confined to the neural pathways of a body, but when they travel through the universe. As such, an intelligent being can generate a thought a million light years from God's core, and it will reach Her in less than a second. That does not mean that every thought is processed by God, however, as most are filtered out as insignificant. This also explains why humans can have a premonition of something happening before it does. The thoughts associated with an event can reach a person before the event actually occurs in our time.
We understand that much of this may seem like science fiction. Indeed, it was initially difficult for us to grasp, and is even more difficult to explain. Further, we may be the first messengers to whom this specific information has been revealed. After all, what significance would it have been to people in First Century Palestine, or even early 20th Century India, when they knew nothing of bosons, nuclear energy or space-time.
God is not all-powerful. As noted, Her power is coexistent with other forces. And just because She can influence those others to an extent does not mean that Her power is limitless. By way of illustration, humans have considerable control over water. We can pollute of purify it, travel over it or under it, use it for power, commerce or recreation, and dam it, divert it, collect it and move it great distances. But we can't make it rain or stop it from raining, nor can we prevent hurricanes, tsunamis or droughts. God gave us water, just as She gives us Grace. However, She cannot control all of the forces that affect water and everything else at the same time.
