Who is "Paramatma" and Who is "Bhagwan\God" in Hinduism, Is there any difference between them ?

Well the answer is Yes, there is!!
To understand this we have to understand what and to whom vedas call Paramatma. Parmatma according to vedas is actually Param Tatva i.e Super Element or Ultimate Element, here Tatva is a Sanskrit words which means an Element, and this Element is the source of all sub-atomic particles.

According to vedas, whatever materialistic world you are experiencing is made up of virtual particles thus is virtual & does not exists at all, as we know, there are so many particles and antiparticles which all together makeup this universe , none of them are solid (Generally we use this term when we consider elements like zinc, copper etc) , initially physicists used to believe that all particles or atoms are solid but later in 1920's this was revealed that neither atoms nor any sub-atomic particles are solid i.e they appear to be solid but were not, So everything which we thought was real suddenly became VIRTUAL because everything was made of those virtual particles (vibrating energy strings), that means all elements are virtual and thus in reality does not exist at all, That also means humans, animals, birds, insects which are also made up of those virtual particles are also virtual and thus does not exist in reality.

Vedas & Upanishads in Hinduism mentions this virtual reality as MAYA (MA => Something which appears as solid, dense & real, YA=> but is not) , this secret revelation by Vedas were initially rejected & not believed before 19th century by western physicists but were later respected & accepted with great shock & since then they started carrying deep analysis & researches on these Vedic literature's in Sanatan Dharma.

According to Vedas or Chandogya Upanishad the source of all these vibrating virtual particles is one, and to that Vedas call it Param Tatva, and there is continuous vibrations of OM in that Tatva (Element), due to which Vedas also call it OM. It's actually because of this vibration (OM) creation has occurred.

"Ekam vipraha bahudha vadanti"
The truth is one and learned call Him by different names.

"truth" here meas Braman i.e Om or Super Element or Paramatma, and it is this Tatva who has manifested itself in different forms here in this universe, i.e all the forms either living or non-living, tiniest or largest all are different forms of one Tatva (Element).

On the other hand when we say GOD or Bagwan, we are talking about someone who is Generator, Preserver and Distructor, inshort one who is DOER (Karta). whereas Paramatma is not DOER, Paramatma is REASON (Karan) behind every Karma.

As we know that humans, deities, bagwan's, animals or insects all are different physical manifestations of one Parmatma, the one difference between Bagwan and Humans are that Bagwan's are self-realized and not all the Humans are self-realized.

Now as i mentioned Paramatma is Karan (reason) behind every Karma and Bagwan/God is Karta (doer) of every Karma, now to understand this consider an example of Refrigerator, the function of refrigerator is to do cooling, thus here in this case, Cooling is the Karma (deed), Refrigerator is the Karta (Doer) and Electricity is the Karan (Reason).

God/Bagwan is also virtual like this creation but Parmatma i.e Super Element is only one who is real or truth or one who is not virtual.

Another difference is GOD/Bagwan either in Hinduism or Islam or Christianity is not formless and it has a form, Bagwan or Allah or God can move, talk, give orders, give punishments, manage things, Sits on throne (like Allah does). Bagwan/Allah/God can be seen (b'coz they has a form) , Allah & Christian God can be seen on Judgement day, Allah also give the expression of Wrath (expression can only given by a form) to those who do not accepted Islam & will go to Hell as per Quran.

Whereas if you see the properties of this Super Element i.e Parmatma, Parmatma is formless because it's infinite in all dimensions (i.e it has no border points or edeges), it's omnipresent i.e there is no place that can be imagined where this Element is not present, it's Ghann i.e it's infinitely dense which means it contains infinite mass in it. It is Stationary i.e it does not move at all as there is no empty place where it can shift itself because it's already omnipresent. Paramatma does not involve itself in any objective actions directly (like talk, move, walk, give orders, speak texts for holy books, give punishments etc etc). Like all these properties there is no other element except HIM - “na tasya pratima asti”.

Bagwan Krishna himself said to Arjuna, "Hey Arjun,this is not my real form, my real form is formless,infinite and beyond time with no beginning and end".

Remember when i say Allah and God has form, it means Allah is physically not omnipresent i.e it's appearance has a beginning points and ending points, secondly a form need not to be made of bones, blood, muscles, iron, mud, stone, wax, wood or glass, a form can be made of air, gases, gravity,light, water, electromagnetic waves etc etc. Also it is not necessary for every form to be visible.

Remember the only difference between your body and a Gas is that atoms in your body are tightly bonded and atoms in Gas are loosely bonded thus your body has a visible Form and the Gas has Form which is not normally visible by your Eyes due to it's biological limitations.

now you understand that physically & behaviourally there is difference between God/Bagwan and Paramatma BUT elementally everything is Paramatma.

Remember Parmatma (Super Element) is the supreme ultimate power and is actual reason behind all this creation according to Vedas. Paramatma is 100% Scientific Element which is the reason behind formation of all these sub atomic particles. thus the Allah and the God mentioned in Christianity who live in Heaven have no relevance with Vedic Param Tatva (Parmatma or Super Element).

Nowadays many people like zakir naik & christian missionaries are fooling people about Hinduism by translating & manipulating the Vedic verses for their ill intentions of doing religious conversions in India.

By making people aware about the real knowledge of Hinduism we can prevent innocent people to become fools by these missionaries
