God is just a form; it is Godliness that exists.
Form is needed to feel the existence, just like the fan is needed to feel the air.
The concept of God is a deviation to your mind to overcome your problems and keep you going. It acts as a cushion in your tough times. That is the reason every religion talks about God. The ultimate essence of any religion is to bring peace and harmony to your being which is possible only through calming your mind.
The nature of mind is such that, what your resist persists. For example, If I ask you not to imagine a monkey with a huge tail, the mind brings in the image of a monkey with a huge tail. Because of this nature of mind, it always brings in our past events or puts us into future(imagination) which makes us feel tired, guilty, worry some, anxious, fear etc., To engage this mind, our ancestors had devised a beautiful concept called God and gave all the good characteristics to it. What they are trying to explain us is this Godliness. The concept of God is just to manage this monkey mind and bring in Peace and Joy to us.
God is the invention of religion and the only intention is to bring Peace & Joy. If there is any religion that is not doing this, it is detestable. As long as you understand this simple logic, you do not need to convert your religion nor compare your religion with other religions. These are all just different ways to bring in Peace, Joy and Happiness.
Unfortunately, people started fighting over religions and their belief systems. These days as the importance of the form, dressing and rituals is increasing, so the distance between religions. Spirituality is giving importance to Godliness rather than God. This acts as a unifying force for religions and makes us understand the true spirit.
Anything can only be born or created out of Love and so this creation. Our world and this creation are a manifestation of that pure Love and Godliness. If we can put aside the veil of mind; what exists is pure bliss. It is meditation that can take you to this state and experience the ultimate.
