God and Real Godhood


God is not an abstract definition of harmony in the cosmos, not the abstract laws of the cosmos, not the highest mathematical equations, and not high abstract unity, as some scientists (Einstein, Newton, Darwin) seemed to have almost reluctantly believed. What is missing is the literally living, highest evolved material or supermaterial being or beings in the cosmos specified as Godhood.

For what it's worth versions of this view are also seen in the philosophy of nominalism or conceptualism. The God of the scientists mentioned above defines “universals” and not real living highest evolved beings. Their God exists only in the material mind and has no material/supermaterial extra-mental existence. This view of real Godhood also tends to degrade traditionalist “mystery schools” of “initiation," freemasonry etc., whose God usually resembles various forms of abstract, non-existent universals.

Then also the God or Father Within of the ascetic Inward Path of most religions is not real Godhood but is a symbolic glimpse of Godhood experienced in the material mind and arrived at only after the ascetic discipline of ridding the the body of material desires. Although the Inward Path is or can be retained in the Twofold Path, it is not real Godhood which is arrived at in the Outward Path of material/supermaterial evolution.
