Introduction
Everybody talks about God being everywhere, all-pervading, inside and outside every living and non-living object. From scriptures to spiritual discourses, omnipresence is repeated like a mantra. But do we truly understand what it means? Is it just decorative words, or does it point to a deeper reality?
In this exploration, we’ll unfold the idea that the infinite, empty space—the vacuum—is the omnipresent God, and how we, through our consciousness, are part of this vast reality.
Observing the Universe Around Us
Look at yourself. Your body, your senses, your belongings, and the living and non-living world around you. Look at the sky, stars, and planets. Everything exists within an empty space. This space, invisible to our eyes yet infinite, is the stage where all objects exist, inside and outside every entity.
All objects—from your body to the largest stars and galaxies—occupy limited volumes, but the empty space around and within them is unlimited. Logic tells us that the only candidate for something truly omnipresent is this empty space or vacuum.
Vacuum as the Medium of Reality
Consider modern communication. When you talk to someone over a mobile phone:
- Your voice is converted into signals, transmitted via towers, satellites, and again towers, finally reaching the receiver.
- The satellite, floating in the vacuum of space, is critical. Without it, communication fails.
Similarly, all electromagnetic radiations—radio, TV, gamma rays, X-rays, solar radiation—travel through the vacuum.
Physics insight: Every form of energy can be transmitted only through a medium. Mechanical waves like sound require air, water, or solids. Electromagnetic waves, however, are carried through the vacuum itself. The empty space is therefore not “nothing”; it is the carrier of all energy, powerful enough to transmit every form of electromagnetic radiation across the universe.
The vacuum acts as a medium, powerful enough to carry these energies.
The Power Within the Vacuum
If a medium can transmit radiation, it must be energetically superior to the radiation itself. This reveals a profound truth: the vacuum, appearing empty, is exceptionally powerful. It sustains and transmits all forms of energy across the universe.
Thus, the vacuum:
- Exists everywhere
- Contains infinite potential
- Carries all forms of electromagnetic radiation
Could this empty space itself be God?
Why We Cannot See It
Humans perceive reality through limited senses. Our eyes see only within the visible spectrum; our ears hear only certain frequencies. Vast portions of electromagnetic reality remain invisible. The same space that seems empty may, at higher frequencies of perception, appear filled with light, energy, or consciousness.
The Space Inside Us
We are not separate from this omnipresent vacuum. Inside our bodies, there exists a space element, analogous to an antenna or a vessel within a larger tank. Through our mind and senses, we receive and interact with this space. This explains:
- How consciousness perceives the world
- How energy flows within and outside our bodies
- How we are inherently connected to the infinite vacuum
Raising the Spectrum of Consciousness
Our current mind spectrum is at a basic level. By elevating our consciousness—like tuning an antenna—we can perceive more subtle energies. At ultimate tuning, consciousness could potentially merge with space itself, becoming one with the omnipresent reality.
Conclusion
- God is omnipresent; space is omnipresent.
- The vacuum, invisible yet powerful, is the medium of all reality.
- Every form of energy requires a medium; for electromagnetic energy, the vacuum itself fulfills this role.
- Our consciousness, through the internal space element, interacts with and is part of this omnipresence.
- The journey is not just understanding but becoming one with this space, realizing our oneness with God.
Carry this question in your mind: How do we become space? How do we merge with the omnipresent vacuum?
Closing Reflection
How remarkable is this reality: every one of us exists within the vacuum, every moment of our lives, yet we rarely observe it. The open secret is staring at us—the vacuum is God. We live, breathe, and move within this omnipresent reality, yet it remains invisible, subtle, and unacknowledged. Isn’t this a true eye-opener? Perhaps the ultimate journey is not searching for God elsewhere, but realizing the God that is the space around and within us.
