"Omnipresence Explained: How God and Anycast IP Address Share a Common Principle"

God is omnipresent, and we can understand this concept using the analogy of an Anycast IP address. In networking, Anycast IP means the same IP address can be assigned to multiple servers. To reduce latency, network resources are moved closer to the user—just as Lord Krishna saved Draupadi instantly when she was humiliated at the Kauravas' palace. This is similar to how AWS Global Accelerator functions. While AWS CDN brings content closer to the user, AWS Global Accelerator moves the network closer. Humans, being based on Unicast IP, cannot be in two places at once. But God, like an Anycast IP, can be present everywhere simultaneously. Anycast routing, also known as IP Anycast, allows multiple physical servers to share a single IP address, symbolizing God's omnipresence in multiple places at the same time.
