GOD
GOD
“God, is not just a person. God is a fountain. God is a sarai, God is an oasis, God is a trust property, God is Godhood! God, is a passing parcel.
Bathe in the fountain, rest in the Sarai, enjoy the oasis, cultivate the trust, reach Godhood, then, pass the parcel.”
“God, is unlimited possibility,” said the yogi,” thus, even God has forerunners, say from Rudra to Pasupati, and then to Shiva; or Narasimha to Rama and Krishna, depending upon the circumstances and need of the time.
God, is a process, every improving, ever expanding. Man, is an intelligent manifestation of God, endowed with the faculty to reason and grow, to think out new possibilities, new explorations. But, God is not only technology and adventure. He is more evident in His attributes of love and kindness. These constitute the moorings, the anchorhoods of God.
God the ship awaits better anchorage, to explore newer seas; for who knows how deep the new harbours may be, who knows how fantastic our technology may become. Understand this mystic secret: to explore great Oceans your mooring needs to be good, to fly to the sky you need to be grounded! Thus too in the confluence between modern science and the natural life, our foundations must be strong, not to get overwhelmed by success in the external world. But, if man cannot remain stable even with the present technology, how will he cope with the further adventures of God? The absence of love and kindness, that is, inadequate anchorage, becomes a reason for God, to dock Himself”.
And then, there is further culmination of malevolence and sorrow, more conflict, and, we begin to wonder whether God is? thought the snake.
