The Hindu religion encourages you to embrace and understand God in whatever form suits your personality and temperment, whether that be Father, Son, Mother, Friend, Lover, etc.

“I can believe in the inbetween
What can’t be said and only seen
When you close your eyes and open your heart
And everything you know just falls apart
And i can believe what can’t be known for sure
The things that might be
The things that never were
And still not know a thing in the end
And still believe that God is my friend”

~Bob Schneider, God is My Friend
