Part of this Divine illusion is evil. Numerous theologies exist. So consciousness is omnipresent.
Real atheism is impossible.
For one can not claim that God does not exist without a consciousness rooted in the Divine. But should one build his hope of deriving the requisite competence for rites from the knowledge of the tman as taught in the Upanisads, he will be left only with the destruction of all rites. From this also it follows that knowledge is independent of rites. One attains the highest by not being attached to the fruits of one's actions. In his The Natural History of Religion and Dialogues concerning Natural Religion , David Hume suggests that monotheism refers to the unity of nature, whereas polytheism indicates its plurality.
