I am not a religious or a spiritual person in the strict
sense of the term. I never had the habit of going to temple on my own. I have
had more quarrels with God for all the atrocities unleashed on the weak and the
deprived. Despite my school friends’ attempt to goad me towards God worship ping
it was only short lived.Nevertheless, over the years, there has been a feeling
of faith enveloping me that there is some super power and that all the events
have been programmed and that it is all destiny written already and nothing can
be done about it. Buddha and Osho are appealing
to me now. My current state is that my anguished anger against the creator
continues. It is a kind of love –hate relationship.
I was never an atheist.But I am against the instutionalis ation and commercialization of religion .I hate all kinds of fundamentalists who interfere
into the personal freedom of worship.worship. Exploiting
religion for political agenda is the most cruelest and crudest crime as the
corrupt politician is a terror to society cutting into the vitals of the system.
Instead of celebrating the diversity and oneness of God, there is more violence
and vandalism in the name of religion, caste and creed.
I am A Hindu by
birth.It was just an accident. This does not imply that I should undermine other faith.It is only those who are ignorant of
The supreme and also intoxicated with
outmoded custom and aggrandizement of power are tending towards religious
warfare as if there is no real work to do.
A truly religious person or a Marxist is a humanist –a
compassionate one, and he or she will work for the welfare of the poor and the weak.
Stumbling upon such a true communist or a spiritualist is a rare phenomenon as
the atomic particles of the human society have been hijacked by money making
madness.V R Krishna Iyer or Ramana or vallalar or swamy vivekanda to name a few
are only illustrative examples an the number is diminishing How the Govt could
allow the political p-arties and religious intuitions roll in billions of dollars escaping from
both accountability and taxes.
