Hinduism advises such people not to try to think of God as the supreme instance of abstractions like being or consciousness, and instead to think of God as the archetype of the noblest reality they encounter in the natural world.
According to Huston Smith in "The World's Religions," Hinduism encourages individuals to avoid perceiving God solely as an abstract concept, such as being or consciousness. Instead, it suggests that believers should focus on understanding God through the lens of the most admirable aspects found in nature.
This perspective emphasizes a more tangible connection with the divine, urging followers to appreciate and reflect on the beauty and nobility present in the world around them, thereby forming a more relatable and meaningful relationship with God.
