In the mean time. If said god exists how do you know it isn't a hindu god or the god of the koran? How would one know that the christian god is the only true god and that the bible is gods word?
Your adressing someone else, but in my experience of God-realization its experiencing the same thing all the religions talk about, love, bliss, light, awareness, formlessness, etc...
To say theres more than one God is to say theres more than one ultimate reality If someone says 'the christian God is real, Allah is fake' they have not realized God! They are a fundmentalist christian, attached to a beleif system
I agree completely with chronic. I have expiereinced what I assume Jesus ment by god. The thing about christianity is that the Gnostic teachings were removed from the bible in order to mske it into a tool of political control.
If you look at Nietzsche's quotes and Jesus's Gnostic quotes you can find similarties
"For all things have been baptized in the well of eternity and are beyond good and evil"- Nietzsche
"It will not come by waiting for it. It will not be a matter of saying 'Here it is' or 'There it is.' Rather, the Kingdom of the Father is spread out upon the earth, and men do not see it." - Jesus
Notice the similarities?
The abyss and the kingdom of heaven are the same thing. The difference between Nietzsche is that he realized that living in the abyss was probably not to healthy. He began calling himself the antichrist the same time others began calling him the little saint.
I also think Jesus got a few things wrong
It is true, there could be a metaphysical world; the absolute possibility of it is hardly to be disputed. We behold all things through the human head and cannot cut off this head; while the question nonetheless remains what of the world would still be there if one had cut it off. -- Nietzsche's Human, All Too Human
To find everything profound - that is an inconvenient trait. It makes one strain one's eyes all the time, and in the end one finds more than one might have wished. - Neitzche.
Thus you establish the over man. Abyss and self become one.

Wikipedia has a whole section of evidence against this. You should read the whole page.

I don't believe what is stated in other areas and I don't care what others have thought
I would like a logical explanation for our existence without the existence of an Eternal being not composed of matter

evidence that Gnostic books were removed? books were removed that shouldn't have been including the book of Enoch which is actually quoted in the new testament
there are also fake Gnostic texts that get lumped into the same category(Apocrypha)

Really 'God realization' is just seeing the universe is in everything Prety obvious, but the simple things are the greatest, imo We rarely find time to just rest with the simple things, like that we are the universe

The whole theory relies on science, that is a dead give away that it can't have anything to do with god. To say that science doesn't understand things means there must be a god is absurd. If god created man, what created god, well the only explanation would be another god created it. Leading to an infinite russian nesting doll made of tinier gods.
I do believe in a higher power sort of thing. You haven't proved there is a god. Once you you prove there is a god, you have to prove it is the christian god.

I worked produce for five years in the third (by sales per sq. ft) best natural food store in the US. Our produce section was amazing and huge. Nothing that wasn't organic and fresh. So I may know something.
