Pantheism
Definition of pantheism from the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy.
http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/pantheism/

Extractions: Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free The book recognized as containing the most complete attempt at explaining and defending pantheism from a philosophical perspective is Spinoza's Ethics , finished in 1675 two years before his death. In 1720 John Toland wrote the Pantheisticon: or The Form of Celebrating the Socratic-Society in Latin. He (possibly) coined the term "pantheist" and used it as a synonym for "Spinozist." However, aside from some interesting pantheistic sounding slogans (like "Every Thing is to All, as All is to Every Thing"), and despite promising "A short Dissertation upon a Two-fold philosophy of the Pantheists" Toland's work has little to do with pantheism. 1.

The view according to which God and the world are one. The name pantheist was introduced by John Toland (1670-1722) in his "Socinianism truly Stated" (1705), while pantheism was first used by his opponent Fay in "Defensio Religionis" (1709). Toland published his "Pantheisticon" in 1732. The doctrine itself goes back to the early Indian philosophy ; it appears during the course of history in a great variety of forms, and it enters into or draws support from so many other systems that, as Professor Flint says ("Antitheistic Theories", 334), "there is probably no pure pantheism". Taken in the strictest sense, i.e. as identifying God and the world, Pantheism is simply Atheism . In any of its forms it involves Monism , but the latter is not necessarily pantheistic. Emanationism may easily take on a pantheistic meaning and as pointed out in the Encyclical "Pascendi dominici gregis", the same is true of the modern doctrine of immanence These agree in the fundamental doctrine that beneath the apparent diversity and multiplicity of things in the universe there is one only being absolutely necessary eternal , and infinite .

Extractions: "Is not the sky a father and the earth a mother, and are not all living things with feet or wings or roots their children? And this hide upon the mouthpiece here, which should be bison hide, is for the earth, from whence we came and at whose breast we suck as babies all our lives, along with all the animals and birds and trees and grasses. And because it means all this, and more than any man can understand, the pipe is holy." Pantheism is an ancient religion that holds everything in the universe sacred. All of nature's creations are divine, interconnected and each is a god. The whole is also what we call a god, not a supernatural entity but a living, throbbing mass of gods. The whole cannot be divine if each of its counterparts are not also sacred. Most Pantheists believe in the duality of nature: positive/negative, good/bad, yin/yang ... and aim for balance in their lives. Because there are many paths to enlightenment and unity with the divine universe, there are also many companion beliefs and practices associated with Pantheism via its followers. As in many other religions, all things are permissable but not all things are beneficial. Again, balance is the key concept by which we guide our lives. Equally important is the need for each of us to accept total responsability for our actions and the condition of our universe. Doing the right thing when it needs to be done, defending those who cannot defend themselves, and caring for our earth as if she were sacred ... being responsible and aware, balanced and in harmony with nature, reverent of all the other gods who share our universe.

PANENTHEISM VS. PANTHEISM
Why and how Panentheism avoids the pitfalls of pantheism.
http://www.websyte.com/alan/pan.htm

Extractions: The following is an excerpt from New Thought: A Practical American Spirituality , pp. 89-92. Pantheism and Panentheism This universal arrangement is not pantheism (all is God), but panentheism , a term devised by Karl C. F. Krause (1781-1832) to describe his thought. It is best known for its use by Charles Hartshorne and recently by Matthew Fox. Panentheism says that all is in God, somewhat as if God were the ocean and we were fish. If one considers what is in God's body to be part of God, then we can say that God is all there is and then some. The universe is God's body, but God's awareness or personality is greater than the sum of all the parts of the universe. All the parts have some degree of freedom in co-creating with God. At the start of its momentary career as a subject, an experience is Godas the divine initial aim. As the experience carries on its choosing process, it is a freely aiming reality that is not strictly God, since it departs from God's purpose to some degree. Yet everything is within God. The most practical value of pantheism is that it recognizes the presence of God everywhere, but it does this at an enormous cost. It provides for the presence of God as the only actor; God's presence is an overriding presence that cancels the possibility of the existence of anything else, of any genuine beloved, of any loving or unloving response to God. In pantheism, human existence or any other finite existence is at best a mystery. Explanation in any satisfying sense is impossible. There can be affirmation that there is nothing but God, but where that leaves the affirmer is unclear; his or her existence is no more than appearance, and enlightenment brings recognition of one's illusory status as a unique, permanent perspective in reality.

Pantheism

Extractions: "I wish there was one person in my life I could show. One instinctive, absolutely unbrisk person I could take to Greece, and stand in front of certain shrines and sacred streams and say, 'Look! Life is only comprehensive through a thousand local gods. And not just the old dead ones with names like Zeus - no, but living Geniuses of Place and Person! And not just Greece but modern England! Spirits of certain trees, certain curves of brick wall, certain chip shops, if you like, and slate roofs - just as of certain frowns in people and slouches' ...I'd say to them - 'Worship as many gods as you can see - and more will appear!' ...If I had a son, I bet you he'd come out exactly like his mother. Utterly worshipless." - from Equus by Peter Shaffer, 1973 (Act 1:18) For all that lives is holy. - William Blake Pantheism is the belief that everything is god, and that god is everything. I have trouble explaining this clearly to people, especially in writing. One friend thinks I worship stones - and I do, but not in the sense that implies. Another friend described me as worshipping Pan, and that isn't the point either. It's a misleading pun. Let me try to explain.... The true essence of divinity is ineffable - which means it can't be explained in words. All religions have this situation, and they overcome it by using words and ideas to get as close as they can to the meanings they intend. No one can describe the indescribable, not even mystics and seers. But they try.
