Defintion of God
A 'definition of God' is fairly hard to come by; in the major Abrahamic and Vedic faiths, God (in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam), Brahman (in Hinduism) and Buddha Nature (in Buddhism) is often described as an infinite, ultimately unknowable reality outside of space and time, and thus a definition is difficult. Thomas Aquinas developed the idea of the Via Negativa to deal with this; he argued that instead of finding adjectives to describe God (e.g. 'God is X'), it is more profitable to find words which God is not - 'God is not limited', 'God is not evil', etc.
