God paradox?

How much darker or brighter it can be is relative, because we think that it can be infinitely dark or bright. But the problem is that you think of darkness as a relative thing and brightness as an absolute thing.

How much brighter can the light get? At which point on the dark/bright scale does the light create darkness? If it creates at some point, then a brighter light should create the dark light. Then, at every point, darkness is being created.

there is fear there is love and there is Love ... and how do you go from love to Love ... you cannot as the person you are ... have to let it go and let god in

When we think of light and darkness as two ends of a spectrum, it can be difficult to pinpoint an exact point where light "creates" darkness. Light and darkness are often defined in relation to each other; without light, there is darkness and vice versa.

Then child rape doesn't exist, and you have nothing to complain about.

The only way for child rape to exist is for you to exist, since you are creating it.

@MarioGabrielJ 

You are using light to say brightness.

They can't exist without each other, as they are defined as the lack of the opposite.

A bright/dark light is darker/brighter than a brighter/darker light.

You have to understand that we are using the idea of light that we are capable of perceiving as humans with our eyes. At both ends of the scale, as a human, you won't be able to see in front of you, as your eyes are not made to see beyond those ends.

Sadhguru talks about it here, the video is mostly a verbal description of how Creation happened, he forwards it by saying "No-Thing" cannot be described by using words, but he attempts it anyways since ppl are asking, in it the subject of darkness comes up, I've stamped it at that point in the video...

Here are some reflections that might make you reconsider:

Brightness and darkness are relative. What we perceive as "bright" or "dark" can vary depending on the context and comparison. A light can seem dark compared to something very bright, but bright compared to something very dark.

Brightness and darkness exist on a spectrum rather than as absolute states. This means there are many shades between complete light and complete darkness.

FOR FUCK SAKE, THE FREE WILL CARD IS BULLSHIT! BECAUSE GOD IS ALL KNOWING AND DONT NEED TO CREATE ANYTHING BUT HE STILL DID THAT BASTARD, GOD CREATED PEOPLE KNOWING THEY WOULD RAPE OR GO TO HELL, IT IS NOT KIND FOR GOD TO BLAME US.

Calm down, watch the video I edited in the post. Get some feminine loving energy in you and stop overthinking God this God that. Just be a decent human. 

If you are not a complete monster, you are doing fine.

God created darkness. God created rape. You can't escape that through any amount of mental acrobatics.

Ok Leo - I will call on the projection of your statement - by "mental acrobatics" you are also inferring these words which you stated:

1) God exists

2) Child rape exists

3) God is Creator of the Universe

Conclusion: God created child rape.

I see this as an oversimplified mental acrobatic leaving out fundamental factors.

There is many ways to overthrow the seeming validity of this black and white line of logic - if you introduce specific factors to terms such as God - Exist - Creation/Creator - and Universe. All those term's meaning are ASSUMED to be as you see them only by you. I am not stupid - I know exactly how you define these terms - HOWEVER the error lies in assuming I agree that these 'meanings' are valid. Are you so convinced that you have the only possible right view - or that you believe you have seen everything - that you have completely loss the sense of exploring a different point of view?

For Chris sake, this is just like religious fanatic thinking. What does this have to do with Spirituality? This is all junk

Light is light.

Darkness and brightness are attributes of light.

Context: I'm talking about what we can see with our eyes.

Darkness is a lack of Light. There is Light or No-Light. Darkness is the word for No-Light.

There is nothing inherently wrong with what you said, but it's also important to understand that our perceptions of light, darkness, and brightness are complex and can be influenced by many factors.

No, there's only light.

You are talking about brightness.

It depends on how one wants to portray it, in the culture of today Light is positive, Dark is negative, but this is culturally based ideology.

Existentially, when we look up in the sky, the way our vision is set up, we notice the stars more than the blackness/darkness, but in reality there is more darkness than light, as with everything, even an atom which is mostly empty space, that space is dark..so most of reality that we can perceive is dark, not light, light is the absence of dark, and light comes then goes, darkness always is...

Where did people learn about light, darkness, and brightness from?

Did they talk about it with each other with their eyes closed?

But how can I stop rejecting and see beauty in animal suffering?

You can recognize the horror of it and accept that horror is part of Infinity.

Can I ever get past this and truly accept that God is love and good? I wish I could be at peace with what I see in this world.

Realizing that God is love cannot happen through human reasoning, you must enter a higher state of consciousness and then it is so obvious you will roll around laughing.

You can't be at peace from the default human state of consciousness. A change in your state is the missing key.

You should make up your mind whether you actually care about understanding God or you care about being a human. Because these are opposite pursuits.

How difficult it is for both to coexist?

I'm facing inmense challenges to excel at both. Something inside me still believes I can pull it off

Do what you think is right. But this is irrelevant anything I said.

Being nice to others is relatively good. That's so obvious I don't even say it.

Do you really need me to tell you to not be an asshole?
