Is there only One God in the universe who has been rightly or wrongly described in different ways by Hindus, Jews, Christians and Muslims? Or are there many versions of 'One God' because God keep changing and evolving to suit the needs of founders and followers of various religions? The fundamentalists of all religions as well as the Pope are claiming religious superiority. Who is right? What are God's real attributes? This book by comparing and contrasting various religions discusses whether the claims of religious superiority have valid reasoning or are they the claims of the autocratic hierarchy of the respective religions. The first half of the book discusses the Attributes of God based on the Vedas (the root scriptures of Hindus). One would learn that according to the Vedas there is only One God who is addressed as Om and by many other names. God is Omnipresent as the Universal Spirit but has no shape or form i.e. God is not anthropomorphic. God is eternal and does not incarnate as a human being. God is Omniscient and the ultimate Source of all true knowledge. God is always Blissful and the Source of all Bliss. All individuals have the potential to directly (without intermediaries) acquire bliss and true knowledge from God through the practice of spiritual yoga-meditation because God exists inside everyone's soul. God is Omnipotent, however, God's omnipotence does not mean that he can do whatever He pleases because even God follows the rules of material science He has created. God does not perform miracles such as turning a wooden staff into a serpent or vice versa. What you will read in this book about God is based on the Vedas and the information is very different than what is portrayed about Hindu beliefs in the lay press or the academic writings based on the Vedanta teachings of Swami Vivekananda. The second half of the book compares and contrasts beliefs described in the Vedas with those described in the Bible, Quran and later Hindu scriptures such as the Puranas upon which most of the current beliefs and practices of the Hindu religion are based. The book discusses issues such as is Krishna same as God as believed by most Hindus and is Christ same as God as believed by most Christians. Is Muhammad the last prophet as believed by most Muslims? Despite the passage of time are God's abilities to remain permanently subordinate to what He is said to have revealed in respective scriptures a long time ago? The book promotes the idea that because of free will, while we may believe whatever we choose, but our beliefs and faith in God should be based upon reason, common sense and what is likely to be true and not upon unsubstantiated dogmas and unbelievable miracles. The book ends with the suggestion that in this era of mass and often instant communications, God and His name should be used to unite people of different religions and not used for exploitation or to fight with each other because no organized religion has a monopoly on God or truth.
