The God I believe in!!


I'm not particular about going to temples,and giving hefty charity to the trust.(Instead I would feed the poor myself.)

I'm really not bothered whether to offer flowers first or do 'tilak' of the idols in my own temple at home.

I do not believe in reading long texts before almighty (which are mostly in sanskrit ) whose meaning I don't know.

I could not always appreciate the rites and rituals ,for example killing (an animal or person) in order to propitiate a deity.

I do not believe in fasting in the name of God.(I won't mind being hungry by choice.)
..........................................................................................................................................
I am a Hindu on paper.But if you ask my original self my religion is none other than Humanity.

I'm as keen to visit Ajmer Sharif,Golden temple and St. Joseph Cathedral as I wanna go to Shirdi Sai dham or on Baba Amarnath yatra.For I love the charismatic,peaceful and tranquil atmosphere that prevails in all of these sites.

I love colours,and gujhiya and papad and I celebrate Holi.
I love crackers and candles and sweets and I celebrate Diwali.
I love cakes and gifts and Santa Clause and I celebrate Christmas.
I love the sight of moon and sewaiyyan (vermicilli) and I celebrate Eid.

In all,I love the God I believe in,I love HIS PEOPLE and I love MYSELF and thus I CELEBRATE LIFE which HE has gifted me.
..........................................................................................................................................
The God I believe in is personification of LOVE.

I talk to my GOD more than I actually pray.We have a very informal (& friendly) kinda relationship.HE says,I listen,I say,HE listens.

I believe I'm in HIS heart and HE is in mine.

HE never lets my HOPE extinguished and helps me go through good and bad times equally well.

HE makes me understand that there are people who are more unfortunate than me and so I should not cry (so- long)over pity things.

Till now HE has always given me what I deserve and may be a little more.

And in return HE asks me or expects me nothing.Nothing means Nothing!

It's just that I want HIM to inculcate a never-ending GOODWILL in me and and and to bless the unfortunate!

This is the GOD I believe in.....and you know.....I LOVE HIM!!



PS: Well, this is the God 'I' believe in.These are strictly my views,which I don't enforce on YOU.Neither I discard the God 'YOU' believe in.Still I feel if you share a little similar views about your God,may be OUR GOD will be happy!
