Most people believe in Almighty God! But is that belief due to fear of dangers, lure of treasure, blessings or out of sheer devotion?

Every individual on this planet is well versed with an identity called 'GOD', whether it exists or not, is not the question of much importance at the moment because we are not acquiented with enough energy and tools to prove or disprove it. So those swirling ideas which question on its existence be kept aside and think for a while about the people who believe in God. Try to explore what actually might be the prima facie reason that makes them believe and confide in Almighty! Is it the fear, fear of losing oneself, fear of danger, fear of being devoid from merry blessings or simply out of pure and infinite fountain of love? Before we start assessing the reasons, let me make you aware of the reason why this thoughts churned into my peacefull state of mind and brought here to you!

Hell bent as I was yesterday night when suddenly a streak of questions crossed my usual quite brain. All that occured all of a sudden was perhaps the reward of my instant NO to a friend who called me up in the early morning and asked me to join him in tiring a nearby shrine of god. Alas! I still don't know the reason why I passed a blatant NO through cellphone when all day I was about to be free, doing absolutely nothing except surfing net. Anyhow the day was passed, sun was set in its mountains but I was left with no mood to dive myself into an ever desperate monastery of sleep but sitting at window side I was another Confusius on this planet. Looking ardently at milky-white moon and pearly-white stars, I was lost into my thoughts, still, unfazed and silent...... All of a sudden my dream was broken and a new order from unknown quarters of brain was thumped, "You must visit the shrine tomorrow!", the fear started gripping in and unknowingly or subconsciously, whatever you might call it, I started mumbling, chanting some mantras! And then actually I realised my acquientance with fear. Fear of an unknown, unseen, uncontrolled, unforeseen novel punishment that might catch up with me for blatantly refusing an invitation of visiting shrine/temple when I was absolutely free to go. Luckily enough, a second, more strong, logically acceptable thought from same brain prevailed the first wicked one and succeeded in wiping out fear, a little atleast and I was returned back into my monastery of dreams. Atlast it was mine belief not fear that stood tall and firm.

Have you at anytime of day, week, year or lifetime spent a little time in thinking why actually we tend to pray god? Is it actually the fear of punishment, pleading for saving ourselves from unseen unthought danger/problems or just out of unbounded love and togetherness? The very question is important, all because our future course of life, all of a sudden could take a big leap forward if understood and garnered it well. 

Does moving through a dark room or countryside road devoid of street lights gives you trembles, shivers and makes you subconsciously chant names of your favorite god repeatedly? Whenever an important decision is to be taken, a big project deal is to be signed, does your lips start vibrating in almighty's name and fame?! Then perhaps you might be the one who is believing in him out of no choice or simply because of fear. When your mother says or does something unacceptable (at first instance) and annoying to you then you might act quite unreasonable with her or may pass some unbelievable words but after some time you sure would realize that the decision was taken keeping in view, your own good in future or perhaps the best possible action at that time! At last its the belief and uncanny love of yours towards your mum that stood high and firm! Why not the same for god? Is in your view god a villain? Conspiracy man? No!? Then allow your true belief to prevail over untrue fear. Let your mind be acquiented with utmost strength and unpenetrable belief that you are forced to conceive anything and everything for good alone. Almighty sure would have sensed little danger or enormous good for you and a particular choice would have been entertained, his choices and ways must be accepted but never be doubted as we all are children of supreme god. Its just we don't understand their long term benefits and start quarrelling over theirs minor glitches at start! On the other hand, even if its untrue that 'whatever occured is not for all good', then do you believe you could change the past and rewrite what has already been written off? Well, that atleast sounds like an hollywood movie plot not reality! So the best that we human beings could do is confide in him rather disbelieve and live in fear. The past can't be changed we all know but sure it could be modified or painted and fabricated with our efforts in present, all we require is an instant simultaneous attitude towards life which suffice our fear. Indeed your brain must be programmed such that it senses all that is 'past' is good and 'future' as bright, whatever may be the present condition, have a desire to fight and win it. Victory would be yours if you build up your present.

Be firm and keep on believing in god for whatever he does; good, bad or worst. In the long run, its always you who would benefit out of his plan. Remember simply that its almighty not meagre man in blood & flesh! Never ever make mistake of mistooking him for vengeance. Almighty is the supreme holy mother, even if you have done thousand wrong deeds, he shall love you with same measure as always. Thats the reason why he's called god and we as human beings!! Almighty is too far from the world of humans which dwells around hatred, vengeance and selfishness, his is the kingdome of love and love alone. Love your thy protector endlessly and he shall shower his love upon you. The hard times might just be the times of testing, a mature step to take you forward. Don't worry, it shall pass away. Doubting god for hatred is cowardice of diseased person. Be brave enough to face the challenges placed before you. Blaming the class teacher for tests or tough question isn't the way of a approaching exams! Is it? In the same manner, let our belief surpass all hedges and surmises of world, let only love and compassion reign in human heart, only than the world could survive and flourish. 

My words shall never be taken as nod to visit temple, shrine, mosque, church or any other religious predicament out of 'fear' or as a way of returning god's favors but out of love for the deity, out of your hearts pull not mind's plans. Meanwhile there lies a spirit or part of god in me and you which warns us of every danger and appreciates of every bold and courageous step, at least respect and cherish it alone. Believe not just in body of blood & flesh but the compassionate and lovable spirit that resides in it. Victory, joy, happiness and celebration shall be yours, all when you believe in yourself rather than mum idols or 'make-up'ed Television honchos who just preach but never practice and all because of mere fear in the deep corners of your heart!
