"God, whose being, while a unity, is not an abstraction derived from things by the intellect — but is the self-subsisting source of all particular beings."
God is in the atom — this is the thesis of Universal Mechanics. Not in a naive or literal sense, but in a philosophical sense: the principle that gave rise to the universe, and that drives its evolution towards complexity, consciousness, and love, is what the great traditions call God.
Universal Mechanics does not require a personal God who intervenes in history. It proposes a more philosophical concept: God as the creative principle at the origin of the universe — the source of the direction that evolution follows towards consciousness and love. This concept is compatible with many religious and philosophical traditions.
The Aristotelian unmoved mover, the Hindu Brahman, the Taoist Tao, the Jewish Ein Sof, the Christian Logos — all point towards a reality that is at once the ground of being and the direction of becoming. God is not the explanation for what exists — God is the name we give to the fact that what exists has a direction, and that direction is love.
"To say God is in the atom is not to anthropomorphise matter — it is to recognise that the tendency towards love and consciousness is inscribed in the very structure of reality."
