When Man Misunderstands Religion

Religion is not the by-product of Almighty. Those were the inventions of our forefathers to instill fear in men to add to the human values (We hardly see any nowadays) and to have society which has a following . Those were the men who practised their religion within the four walls of their home. In short it was a means adopted so that we adhere to live a life of Values...

Decades ago, religion was based on profession, that is , one practising vedas was called a "Brahman", one who was into business was a "Vaishya" but the future generation (Including you and me) misunderstood it. Our forefathers preached that religion was a path to the common goal, which is peace, prosperity, unity - Ideally they meant "Live and Let Live" 

In the present world we see many people of different religions, Christians, Hindus, Muslims,Sikhs,Jains,Buddhists,Parsis, Jews etc ... True , each religion has a god with a lot of myths,  stories , and each caste or community have given a form which is now a medium for human nature through which we see god... Ultimately we fail to realise god is an energy , i agree and am humbled by his creations and i am not here to test his abilities.

We see and hear about so many ethnic wars & group clashes. All this in the name of religion, God has never told anyone to fight for him (I guess we are misled in India because of the wars in "Ramayan & Mahabharath") But man needs an excuse to show his hot blooded valour. He goes about killing people from other caste for reasons which are beyond humanly nature like breaking a statue . An insult to an individual is blown out of proportion that it finally leads to a communal riot ... It's scary isn't it.

Now , we Indians are facing a communal crisis. Islam fundamentalism, Hindu rejuvenism and Christian conservatism are breaching the nation leading to communalism.

Answer yourself when we go to a place of worship (Temple, Church, Mosque, Gurudwara) prayers for us have always been "Bring prosperity to me" "Do this for me and in return i will pay you back - Bargaining". We have forgotten the basics that we should be doing conversations with god and not bargaining.

The future of this wonderful country and this beautiful earth lies in Our hands and we have the responsibility of protecting this Human race. 

Note:- I have not intented to hurt anybody's feelings, my point was to ensure future India is not demolished rather i wish we build a stronger India..
