How Do You Defend a Belief in Something That is Unimaginable?

[An atheist asked: How do You defend a belief in something unimaginable? I can't imagine a lot of things and coincidentally, I don't believe in them. A Circle-Square is unimaginable. Should I believe it exists?]

Reply of Swami: First of all, you must notice that all the philosophers are experts in logic in depth. You should not be hasty and fast in drawing conclusions with such high speed, which result in three-dimensional clashes. All your arguments are contradicting each other if I unveil them slowly in a systematic manner. It will become a very long article and finally, the purpose is only to hurt you by showing the mutual contradictions, which are found by deep analysis. I do not want to do this to make you more aggressive. Instead, I give the following brief account in a straight way and request you to understand it straightly in the simple manner without causing three dimensional twists and spoil the basic truth.

You must know that miracles are being exhibited in this world, which are clearly different from magic. If all the miracles were proved as magic, the concept of God would have been easily buried long time ago. You have neither observed the miracles nor believe the experiences of elder and wiser people, who are greater scholars and scientists than you in logic. The miracle exists as an unimaginable event. Logic cannot touch even the surface of miracle and hence, the miracle stands as a strong practical evidence for the existence of unimaginable entity, which is called as God. The miracles also prove that they are beyond space and time and hence, the unimaginable entity is beyond space and time.

God is only a name given to this unimaginable entity. Even the boundary of the universe is unimaginable. The unimaginable square circle is a different case because both the square and circle are imaginable components of the square-circle. God is unimaginable in-to-to as per the analysis of the unimaginable miracles. The person, who performs the miracles, thus becomes the authority to speak on the unimaginable God. Such person possesses God (or the unimaginable entity) and His word is taken as the scripture. Everybody tries his best to disprove the miracle but a genuine miracle always really stands as unimaginable event. The concept of God is built up from this only.
