1. Brahman is known as the suprme Hindu god and as absolute reality However, strictly speaking, it is neither god nor reality. It is the very junction of god and the real world

2. A Hindu shouldn't believe in Brahman. He must accept it as an absolute fact.

3. Brahman enables us to understand the nature of god.Understanding god would enable us to make god 100% reliable. Thus, Brahman would make us the master of our fate

4. While the nature of gods keep changing, the nature of Brahman remains unchanged forever

5. It can be real or abstract. Abstract Brahman is layman's Brahman. It is the omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient supreme Hindu god. However, this Brahman can't be understood

6. When we say that 'I am Brahman' (Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 1.4.10) we are referring to the real Brahman

Real Brahman is just as powerful as we are. However, real Brahman can be understood thoroughly

7. According to Manu Smriti 1.11 Brahman is same as Purusha. and is both real and unreal. Thus, Brahman is not as abstrct as some Hindus may wish to believe

8. Brahman is not a god of a Hindu whose life is devastated completely. A Hindu can come under the command of Brahman if and only if his life is ideal. Brahman would oppose any deterioration of that ideal life

9. According to Manu Smriti 1.19, 1.20 and Rigveda 1.10. 90 - 14, Purusha and thus Brahman is made of seven Purushas (Indra, Shakti, Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Shani and Yama, in that order - the name of the seven gods is not mentioned in any Hindu scripture and can only be inferred). Thus, all gods spring from Brahman and are manifestations of Brahman

10. Though not directly mentioned in scriptures, Brahman is nothing but the isometric component of our skeletal muscular system, acting as a single unit (Unified Skeletal Muscle - USM). That single unit is what we call Purusha.

11. Brahman is our skeletal muscular system when its tone is exactly 50%, a state in which we can't feel it. Therefore, Brahman is considered as formless, even though it has the distinct form of our skeletal muscular system.

12. Purusha (Rigveda 1.10.90) is a symbolic description of the properties of USM. However, to a casual reader Rigveda 1.10.90 looks like a description of creation of the universe.

13. Brahman is absolute and thus, there can't be Shaiva and Vaishnava concepts of Brahman.

14. To become one with Brahman we must attain Moksha and for that we have to get rid of our Karma.

According to Brahmajnana, Karma is the resistance to our activities and Moksha means getting rid of Karma and making our life 100% efficient and reliable. According to Brahmajnana, we can attain Moksha in this life only.

Does suffering make it impossible to believe in Brahman?

Brahman - the extra ordinary Hindu god:Brahman is the supreme god of Hinduism. It is the god of all Hindu gods. However, paradoxically, most Hindus don't even know that there is a Hindu god by that name.The reason is obvious. Brahman is beyond the comprehension of most human beings, let alone Hindus.It can't be worshiped like any other Hindu god. There can't be an idol, ritual, mantra or belief to appease Brahman.Brahman and suffering: To realize Brahman we must experience chaotic fluctuations in our life. The sufferings have to be so great that even the regular gods can't solve them. Then only we can feel like surrendering to the god of all gods viz. Brahman.Conditions to be fulfilled to be controlled by Brahman:To have belief in Brahman one has to attain Moksha. This is because while we can have partial belief in other gods we must have absolute belief in Brahman. It must be realized that Brahman is pure Involuntary force. Thus, we can't have any kind of control over Brahman. If we try to believe in Brahman before attaining Moksha we would lose control over our life. Therefore, it is not suffering that makes it impossible to believe in Brahman.
