MEANING OF GOD


GOD- WHICH CANNOT BE DEFINED BUT STILL HAS A THREE LETTER NAME


IF IT CANNOT BE DEFINED THAN DOES IT EXIST? CAN BE A QUESTION AFTER READING THE TITLE.
EVERYHING THAT CAN BE DEFINED IS CREATED BY GOD. WHICH CANNOT BE DEFINED IS THE CREATOR ITSELF- THE GOD.

IT IS EVEN SAID THAT MAN HAS CREATED GOD TO SATISFY ITS PSYCHOLOGICAL NEEDS.
WELL, IF THAT IS SO THAN WHO CREATED MAN IN THE FIRST PLACE. IF WE SAY HUMAN BODY IS SAID TO BE MADE OF FIVE ELEMENTS NOT BY GOD, THAN WHO CREATED THOSE FIVE ELEMENTS AND MIXED IT. GOD DID THAT IN HIS LABORATORY OF EARTH.

ANOTHER THING WHICH IS COMMONLY SAID IS GOD IS NOTHING BUT A CREATION OF OUR MIND?
THAT IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE WHAT WE HAVE INFACT CREATED IS NOT GOD BUT A ROUTE TO GOD.
HUMAN HISTORY SHOWS THAT MAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN SEARCH OF GOD. GREAT WARS HAVE BEEN FOUGHT IN THE NAME OF GOD (RELIGIOUS WARS), STILL ARE BEING FOUGHT. HUMANS CREATED A VERY COMPLEX THING CALLED RELIGION SO AS TO REACH GOD, IT WAS A ROUTE TO GOD. WHAT EVERY RELIGION INFACT DID IT CONFINED ITS MEANING WITHIN THE BOUNDARY OF RELIGION WHOSE ULTIMATE AIM BECAME TO INCREASE THE FOLLOWERS OF RELIGION RATHER THAN FOLLOWER OF GOD.

DID HUMANS EVER FOUND HIM?
ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION DEPENDS UPON THE FIGURE OF GOD WE HAVE IN OUR MIND. IF WE THINK IDOLS OF GOD THAT WE WORSHIP ARE GOD ITSELF THAN WE WILL END UP IN IMAGINING GOD HAVING A MUSCULAR BODY OR BODY WITH FOUR HANDS OR WHATEVER SHAPE IS GIVEN TO THE IDOLS. JUST THINK HOW CAN WE CREATE GOD BY SOME MATERIAL WHICH HAS BEEN CREATED BY GOD ITSELF. WE EVEN GO TO THE EXTENT OF OFFERING HIM CLOTHES AND FOOD SO AS TO PROVE OUR BELIEF IN HIM OR TO ASK FOR SOME WISH WHICH WE THINK CAN ONLY BE GRANTED IF WE OFFER HIM SOMETHING. WHY DON’T WE INSTEAD GIVE IT TO THE ONES WHO INFACT ARE IN NEED OF THOSE CLOTHES AND FOR WHOM NEXT MEAL IS GOD.

WHAT IS GOD?
GOD IS NOTHING BUT A ENERGY. IT IS THE SAME ENERGY WHICH FLOWS IN THE UNIVERSE. IT IS THE SAME ENERGY WHICH KEEPS PLANETS REVOLVING AROUND SUN. THE REVOLUTION OF PLANETS AROUND SUN, EARTH AROUND SUN OR MOON AROUND EARTH TAKES EXACTLY THE SAME TIME IN EACH AND EVERY COMPLETE REVOLUTION, THERE IS NOT EVEN A DIFFERENCE OF FRACTION OF A SECOND IN TWO REVOLUTIONS. THIS PROVES THAT THERE IS SOME ENERGY WHICH IS CONTROLING IT AND THAT ENERGY IS GOD.
NO NEED TO SEARCH FOR GOD OUTSIDE NO ONE HAVE EVER SUCCEDED IN IT, GOD IS OMNIPRESENT, GOD IS FORMLESS, GOD IS WITHIN EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US. WE SHOULD JUST BELIEVE IN HIS PRESENCE.

PROVOKED THOUGHTS


Sitting at a very old mosque at Purana Quila whose origin is itself a mystery, felt like writing something.
Every civilization every great empires come to an end one day same as do our lives. Once a majestic mosque at the peak of Mughal era is now in a dilapidated condition where only pigeons come to fly and sit and the echo of there flapping of wings is making this solitude place more solitude. Though now and then some muslims are coming and offering prayers to theirs or our Almighty( I don’t want to create any controversy its just my style of writing) and observing a new creature in the mosque, that is me sitting in one of their carpets and scribing something in notebook.
May be they are thinking me to be writer or a philosopher or a archaeologist or a freak (last option seems more probable to me) but no one would be thinking that I am a lawyer. Purana Quila being just a stone throw away from Delhi High Court, I don’t think any of the money greedy lawyers would have ever visited this place and found new source of peace than what they find in admiring their bank balance. As rightly said Ignorance is Bliss.
Our country has always been good in patchwork our constitution can be a fine example of it. The patchwork or facelift which probably A.S.I has done to this mosque looks like a make up done to a Ramleela character.
AllAH O AKBAR can be heard, may be time for prayers. I feel a bit uneasy out of 6 people present in the mosque 5 of them are standing and doing prayers and the 6th one i.e me is sitting on the ground as Emperor Akbar use to sit in his royal palace.
It feels nice it feels proud, the country in which I am living the secular and tolerant nature which cannot be found and created in any part of the world. You may create Burj Khalifa you may create Eiffel but tallest tower of secularism and tolerance towards every religion can only be felt and seen in India.
ALLAH IS ONE GOD IS ONE.
Than why cant there be only one religion for humanity i.e humanity. Why do muslims need to grow beard to prove loyalty towards their religion, why do Brahmins need to prove it by wearing thread, Cant we just hug each other, each others religion and spread the religion of humanity. Instead of wearing religious attires outside our impermanent body cant we cover differences in us with burqa and dhoti of love and brotherhood.
Should leave now got to go back to Zoo where black crows and wolves would be scavenging on our dead legal system.
