Does God have a personal form?

Let me tell you a story.

Once three people went to the railway station. None of them knew how a train looks. When the first person went to the railway station, the train was a bit far away from the station. It’s light was visible and the horn was audible. The first person thought, “So this is how a train looks like.” The first person returned back. When the second person came, the train had arrived at platform. The person took a look at the engine and the coach and thought this is how a train looks.

The third person entered in the coach and experienced the journey and thought, “this is called a train.”

All the three person have their own perspective, none of them are wrong. It is just that one of them has a better knowledge about the train.

Similarly, Shrimad Bhagvadapurana treats all the three aspects of the God.

Brahman (Universe): God is everything.

Paramatma (Supersoul): God is everywhere.

Bhagwan (Personal Form): God is the supreme truth. God have a form and he has his own spiritual abode.
