The Mother of All Confusions !
This is how I experience being a Human ! All of us have all sorts of beliefs about everything !
The beliefs and faith of every one around the world is one of the most interesting and fascinating study ! Even today , you take a flight across the planet and see how people are living and have beliefs that are amazing ! We are probably the most amazing creatures on this planet !
We can belief in any thing and nothing !
We have put animals between our beliefs and done strange things ! A simple animal as a cow is really trapped in our beliefs ! ( Disclaimer : I have respect for all ! These are simply my observations ! )
Some belief that it is to be respected and worshipped , others after their prayers belief that slaughtering it is good sacrifice to the gods ! Who is to say who is right or who is wrong ?!!
How will we draw conclusions , reasons or evidence as to our actions !!
Is there any rational or reasonable method to think or reason ?!
Is science good enough to give us a way as to what is right or wrong ??!
Can science , evidence or logic convince us as to what is the truth ?!
Faith and religious issues are very highly charged issues ! It is not easy to even open such discussions publicly ! We have invested our emotions and so much in to our beliefs and faith that we simply cannot even thing to question our faith or belief !! It is just unbelievable !!
As I am writing , I am thinking and wondering what people must be feeling for me to even dare think or question such issues !
Why does it bother me ?
What does it matter ?
It matters to me as I love this beautiful planet and all the people and all other things that are in it .
I see so much of divisions , separations and misunderstanding all over this planet . Our different ways of thinking mostly are creating a huge gap of mistrust and disharmony . All this is only bringing more stress and tension amongst us .
The lofty thoughts of peace , unity and oneness appears like a far away dream .
To make matters worse , there are always some people out to further create differences for their own selfish needs and agendas !
It appears that it is so much easier to create fear , mistrust and hatred , than to create love and oneness !
Our beliefs are really deep ! We have even created that our gods are different ! Based on that we have our different ways to right and wrong ! One faith believes that we do not follow them , than we as non believers are doomed to suffer for eternity !! Than another group believes that if
we don't follow their way , we will be doomed to their concept of hell ! At the end , it appears we are all going to land in some one's hell for eternity !! What a strange situation !!
we don't follow their way , we will be doomed to their concept of hell ! At the end , it appears we are all going to land in some one's hell for eternity !! What a strange situation !!
The politics of faith are so strong that I fear or believe that it is most unlikely that we will ever achieve world peace ! It appears like wishful thinking of a dreamer !
The nature of this beliefs are complex . Than this complex beliefs are complicated by the very many different opinion of so many people within the same belief !!
Take any major religion . Are they all having one belief and are really united ??!! No , of course not !
If that was the case , it will not be that bad ! We will have 5 to 7 major blocks of people , but at least , they are united and living in harmony . That is not what I see .
Within that one major religion , there are sub divisions and more divisions until practically every believer as a mini belief system of their own !!!!
Sorry , there is no chance of a World Unity or peace ! Thank you . I am taking a break and going for a very long walk !! Just don't ask me where !
I can go on writing endless about our sad state ! One Holy Book and we have countless interpretations as to what did the founder really mean ??!!
I don't know !! What happened 1 thousand years or even longer !!
I can sit here and speak right now in front of you and I can bet , you will hear me differently !!
That is the very nature of our species ! We are witnessing this same event , and yet we will have a different experience !
Understanding the Oneness of Everything is a rare experience !
I will leave you here today to just reflect and ponder on what I just shared with you .
Need a break to just go for a walk .
Till we meet again . Take care . Love .
Amar.
