GOD , RELIGION AND THE MODERNN SOCIETY

 Religion is nothing but a path towards God.  Now the meaning itself of God has been redifined and many of the religions have moved away from their destined path towards wealth, power , protection and self defence. After ensuring their own protection, many of them tend to move towards the weaker one in the society to eliminate them.

Many of us are reluctant to understand the one God principle. By convention we believe that our God is the only One and the right One. It may be beyond human correction. Almost everyone may convincingly or otherwise explain that his God is the right One and other's is the wrong one. There is only One God who has created the entire universe, every life form including you and me is uniformly agreeable too. However, the One shaped and painted by many of his predecessors is carried by the living one. Therefore, it is impossible even dare to analyse it. The priesthood of some of these religions are not interested to enter into an open discussion. Because many of them are engaged in financial discussion, power sharing and new supressive methods etc.

While confirming his pre-drawn God, there no comparison or reasonability is soght and it may not be needed. We  do not know where we have come from and where we have to go back. Hence, quite naturally we have been sent here by someone and such one will take us back too. However, the modern society has a different look and that must be the reason for killing of over 3000 people around the world per year for the past few years. God and religion is used nowadays for adding money and snatching power. No one is bothered to use religion to refine people and to bring peace into the society. Religion is now strictly confined to the places of worshipn and certain observation.

It is estimated that about 4,58,000 intentional killings were in the world in 2021.An average of 2,50,000 cases of rapes were reported by police from 65 countries per year.

Despite the fact that most of the wrongs taking place can be prevented by the religions of the respective countries, gradually it has become beyond their reach as they too have become part of the wrongs. Let us all trust in the Supreme One that we will see a brighter tomorrow shortly. Until then, we may pledge that we will not hurt our fellow beings neither physically not mentally.
