God & Myself, Prayer ?
Why should we pray ? This is a question Haunting me for the past 8 years and still feel there is no perfect answer for that question. I always try to explain every thing by analyzing wht is happening to me and why it has happend instead of being a mirror and reflecting others thoughts & thus i some how managed to find few reasons for praying and i would like to sum it up as follows.. When I say I belive in GOD it means i Belive in the Unexplained Energy inside me which makes me,every one & the Universe to live. When ever iam happy i feel there is no need to think about GOD and when ever I’m sad I always go to the temple and seek for GOD. That’s how i started my faith with god and even when I tried to pray diff god i felt my prayers are answered. This made me realize that GOD is beyond the Religious Mask. Then by reading JKrishnamurthy's speech, Swami Vivekanadha, The Holy Geetha I was surprised to see that we should not ask god for some thing during the prayer instead we should leave every thing to his hands and just thanks him for wht ever he has done. This was very hard to practice at first but then when i re visited all my prayers i found its very silly to see myself praying so hard for some thing which was the most important thing in my life but after some time it become least important to me like passing exams, getting job, getting well from a wound, fever, praying for my dear and loved ones etc. After putting lot of thoughts i could see GOD was not waiting for my prayers, GOD is just doing his duty even if u don't pray or pray it will not affect him he just continues to do wht he intend to do like how a Beautiful Flower Spread its sent of love to who ever comes to its vicinity even if tht person praise the flower or curse it or plucks it out of the branch it stills shows the same love and affection to all. So god is not operated by the prayers u do ,Then why over these thousand years each religion has followed or en forced some thing called as prayers? Why every religion followed a diff style for prayer and diff chanting and diff days for the same cause ?When i tried to pray every god in the religion by strictly following the instructions given by the religion i first felt that I am pleasing the god by controlling my self to the path which he wanted. But over a period of time i found tht i lost the happiness in praying god when I concentrate more on the way in which I pray god say rushing to the temple on festival day, Trying to find campor and if I couldn't find I feel bad, If the coconut broken b4 god is not proper then my concentration went to why the coconut was not in shape than praying the god, If i miss to attend the Mass in church then felt bad that all my prayers which I have done so far is gone etc...Then on thinking over and over about this i found out that GOD is not happy when u follow the instructions its we who feel or believe that he will feel. Then wht is this Prayer ? Wht should i do when i stand b4 god ? Wht is the enlighten or the feeling of high spirituality I get when I stand before the Gods Idol ? why I tend to forget the whole world when I’m in the prayer and put myself before god ?Should i need to praise God in all prayers and don't beg for my benefits ?or should i need to beg for wht i want and then do a business deal with him tht I will do other things if u full fill my wants and needs ?will god punish if i fail to do those things ?This become a million dollar question and obviously there are no Vivekanadha or Ramakrishna Paramansha or any Saint is reachable to me to give answers. The fact is even they can't give the answer for these questions because the answer for all these question should be realized from ones self consciousness and all those great saints can only show the path or guide to realize the answers. So when i stand before the Idol of Lord Krishna I could see The un explained energy which is inside my heart and stopping me form hurting others, instructing me to help some one for no return, try to spread smyle in others life, eliminating the fear and anger from mind. That is the Idol Man or That un explained energy is the complete or Perfect self conscious person inside me and unfortunately tht person only lives for a short time. Cuzz I’m not a saint and i also do things to hurt others, being selfish and other things. So when i stand before the god and ask for strength i Feel i just realize the God inside me standing in front of me and I’m giving instructions to myself which makes me grow stronger and more proper to attain ultimate happiness. So i felt prayer is nothing but expressing your feelings of happiness, sadness, weakness to the greatest Belief of your life and in doing it u achieve ultimate peace. Strength and faith in your life to motivate your self for a better life .
Y to Fall in Love
Love, Love, Love, I could see so much about talk about love by every one and this topic has been repeatedly spoken by many people from the time of civilization. But still nobody could able to understand it clearly. I made a small effort in understanding this topic and summarized my thoughts below.
Love your self
Love every other human beingsLove God Now wht do u mean when u say I Love ?Love is the feeling of Giving and Accepting every thing with no returns. Its the Feeling of Exponential Joy & Happiness which does not ask you to do any thing in return for this feeling. It just continues to be with you once it has been triggered inside yourself.When a little baby is hungry then the best happiness for the baby is to see his/her mothers Face & gentle hug. Does the baby gives some thing in return to the mom ? Does the mom expects some thing from the baby at that time when she gives her blood as food to her baby ?They both give every thing completely to each other and expect nothing but others Joy and Happiness and feel happy about it. Now when u apply the same concept to love every one will it be practical ? If a person spit a pan or chewing gum on ur face when ur about to go to office then will u show complete love to tht person ? Extremely Impossible. But few have done it and rose to the godly status. Love God. Amazing words. Mother Teresa, Meera Bhai are few of the best example for the word Love God. But how many are there who can practice those ways now ? Do we have it in ourself ? How can they achieve it ? So we can say that they see all suffering and needy human being as there innocent children’s and they give every thing for them. They completely believe that God is there Mother of love and they should spread all love they get it from god to all possible individuals in the earth. Now What about love between a couple or lovers?
Let us try to explain this Mysterious “LOVE”.. Love is a feeling which redefines one's life. When some one is in love then that person will feel every thing around him/her is beautiful that he or she suddenly begin to see happiness in each and every thing, which they come across. Love can never take away ones freedom, if it does then its not love cuzz love Means u Trust others in giving them full freedom and u get the same trust back from ur lover.This love should be exponentially growing so tht even at ur last breath u should feel happy to see that she still lives and ur the one who is going to die and she should feel happy to see u die happily ur last breath..So This Love is one wonderful feelings which should happen to every one at least once in a life time...... Lets try to break our thoughts on love and put into practice and see wht it really means cuzz i never try to read any books to reflect others thoughts and creativity but I try to get the answers from my own experience in life .. I have been thinking about love for the past 8 yrs from my school days to till now and with out knowing wht it is i started to love few but when I came to know I could see I lost them from my life. But still I like the feeling when I say I love them and I cannot change it. Love is not a myth were no one explain. Love is very simple and every one is eligible for it.I spoke to many people who succeed in love or who call themselves as failed in love but wht I could see is those who succeed in love continue to love each other and those who claim themself as faield in love stoped at one point and realized wht they believed is not love and suddenly the love has vanished like a wax when its set with the fire of hate and ego. Why love Is blind cuzz it does not see Wht is ur materialistic value it sees u as who you are and make u trust some one beyond his current capability tht it encourages the other to achieve gr8 heights. I have experienced it ,Its a gr8 feeling. At the same time when u realize tht ur love is lost its worst than being dead cuzz U feel ur Dreams in which u had all ur faith and belief more than ur life is gone.This will destroy the faith u had about urself. This is a tough situation but one need to get out of this and feel that Life is a Very long journey and no body have the rights to stop it just cuzz the person who u have expected to come with u got down in some other station ;)
