my search for God
We have not created the concept of God, even if we accept or dont he is prevalent everywhere.There were many great humans in history who have taken the path of truth and realised him.I, a year back went in to the wild without any equipment ,stayed in caves without food and bedsheets or proper clothing and know that we can survive with just absolute belief itself ,what the enlightened say is true.As Buddha said absolute surrender to anything will help us to conquer it,'atmam sharnam ghachami'.
God is infinite, he has no start or end .Nobody can describe him with cetainity.We have to realise or become him.And we have to see each and everybody as God himself or ourself.Because he is manifested in every thing and it is the path to conquer evils like hatred,jealousy,fear,insecurity etc.Imagine before language people used to communicate by thoughts,may be he picked up certain words like 'Ma' by observing animals.And later he started communicating through drama or plays and later poetry and as he started to cut his feelings prose began.In this age of vituality we are into virtual feelings also. True feelings or thoughts or bhav is required to see God.
In ramayana a poet explains a situation; After vanquishing lanka and as the arrangements of Sri Ramas pattabhishekam ceremony was going on,Laksmana who was standing guard at the anthahpura felt sleepy and like yawning,thinking about all the 15 years he had spent vanavasa wherein he had spent those years without sleep or food and when everything is coming to an end he is feeling tired and smiled.Seeing his brother smile King Rama who was sitting on the throne felt Lakshman was laughing at him for having brought a wife who was staying with somebody for so many years and celebrating as if nothing has happened.Vibhishana felt Laksmana might be laughing at him,for having betrayed his own brother and enjoying the throning ceremony of his brothers killer.Sugreeva thought that Lakshmana may be laughing at him for having killed his brother unethicaly.Each one in the aasthanam had their own complexes,guilts and thoughts.Rama stood up from the throne and thundered that until Lakshmana does not tell what is running through his mind,the throning ceremony should stop.After Lakshmana's explanation Rama was surprised that Lakshmana had not eaten for all those years and everybody was releaved.
Like wise if I say 'Asylum is a good human' it may be true or it may be sarcastic or the meaning change as per the listeners perceptions.For every word or swara there are many bhavas;say suppose 'Sa' may mean him,yourself,me,God....And 'Bhuddham sharanam ghatchami' may mean- one who has surrendered-one who has conquered-surrender leads to buddha--- Buddha itself has so many perceptions.'Yeh Tatvavam Tat Sat' means you,yourself told this, this is the real truth,you yourself are truth.-------------.To see him all Bhavs, feelings,thoughts ,words,deeds should become one.We believe that we need breathing ,eating to stay alive or to sustain this body that is not true.If it is so, how did buddha or a mahaveera could do penance for so many years without food.Believe me they did it and it is possible even now.In this virtual world it is very easy to be virtual being but take the proved path to strength and joy,away from insecurities and complexities
