I never thought about it so seriously and deeply before as I did in last 2 days. It’s about finding what you believe actually and whether what you believe is right or wrong or you just don’t know. I thought I never believed in god or I may say that I was never ritualistic or idol worshiper or inclined towards visiting temples for every single problem of mine. I haven’t been to temples or performed “poojas” for ages but my belief is that there is someone or something there which is looking after us and some what I believe in Karma. We humans have an innate need to understand the purpose behind things. It’s revolutionary at its heart. When something happens we are hardwired to look for rationale.<\/p>\n
We have an intense emotional need to fill in the blanks of the universe that our minds simply cannot answer and our technology seems forever unable to provide.\u00a0 “What does all this mean?”\u00a0 “What happens after death?”\u00a0 “Why do things happen the way they do?”\u00a0 While in the process of looking for answers, there are still many things which need further analysis in order to agree or disagree with something.<\/p>\n
While I am very clear about what I don’t want to do (to follow any religion, worship the god or do daily rituals) as this is my conscious\u00a0choice. But it may be wrong as a parent to instill my religious beliefs in my kid. One of our basic duties as parents is to expose them to all possibilities and let them decide that what they want to follow and what not.<\/p>\n
People I see around are a mix of believers, non-believers, believers with certain motives behind that may be social, political etc. For some people, they blindly follow things without looking at the logic behind or they believe there is no logic it’s just faith and it very easy to fool them. That is why some religious leaders, the so-called babas have made a money making business out of it. That is why it\u00a0becomes very important to evaluate what you believe in and let not others take advantage of it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
