Sri Ramana Maharshi
Research on God has been going from time immemorial. Has the final word been said?
(Maharshi keeps silent for sometime)
Should I consider Maharshi's silence as the reply to my question?
Yes. Mauna is Ishwara swarupa.
Buddha is said to have ignored such enquiries about God.
And, for this he was called a sunya vadin. In fact Buddha concerned himself more with directing the seeker to realize Bliss here and now than with academic discussions about God etc.
God is described as manifest and unmanifest. As the former He is said to include the world as a part of His Being. If that is so, we as part of that world should have easily known Him in the manifested form.
Know yourself before you seek to decide about the nature of God and the world.
Does knowing myself imply knowing God?
Yes, God is within you.
Then, what stands in the way of my knowing myself or God?
Your wandering mind and perverted ways.
