Making GOD

Modernity has affirmed that God is also a portion of our small brain which the complicated serums in our neurons sometimes crave because nobody can prove god in front of science. So what is so wrong in making god by society and breaking its stereotypes rooted in superstitions? In old days the job of social reformers where easy; they just had to fight with prolonged superstitions in the minds of people and revive religion “The Yada yada hi dharmasya types….”. In modern times the villains of culture are both atheism and theism with their roots in science and superstition respectively in a condition where the society remains in darkness both in the case of science and religion.

In life, a man tries to find many things, both simple and complicated. For a Christian his religious aim is to make his life holy and worthy in the eyes of God; for a Muslim, his Imaan is what comes between him and his Allah; for a Hindu, his part fulfills only when he is ready to accept a Vedic life of which there are not even artifacts to be found; he claims that it is impossible to live a Vedic life in modernity, he never tries and never accepts his OM in everything. He on one side lives a superficial life of nothing but just personal wants and needs while on the other hand there is a heap of bookish knowledge which he follows blindly without any actualization to conclude his path is right. He travels in gutters of Hindu Consciousness which we mistook for a Hindu revival axing its way from Vedic knowledge and injunctions of this land with numerous Maharaj's, Bhagawan's and Ishwars. The truth which everyone discards is that the life of a Hindu is judged right from his birth either to an asuric womb or in a pious family which he got by his previous karma and is his walk in this ocean of birth and death or samsara towards his liberation of which souls might have been in here from god knows from which Pralaya. As I have discussed earlier Moksha is also a path which man has to labor like earning artha in this world. Liberation or Moksha is the highest pleasure that a man can reward himself with his acts for the hidden soul which until the time of realization is also non-existent and when once the soul sparks we are bereft of the samsara and achieve the state of a Jiwan Mukta were only the body is left and it becomes a vessel of Paramatman to function and our practices and efforts shifts to finding newer meanings for the realization. On this blog, I am explaining the path of Bhakti Yoga to self-actualization and it’s about the eyeglasses we were. We all have a perspective or glasses in our lives to view the world around us and 90% of which has become just national educational policies of world Governments. In self-actualization we would find ourselves just empty, hallowed, and bereft of any glasses to view the outer world and find every individual in the planet of the same essence and wearing their respective glasses. Now we have an OM in our faces; the face of every human on the planet has an Om according to Kundalini shastra; on the Ajna Chakra which is situated in the middle of the eyebrows from where we conceive our consciousness. The beauty of a Hindu yogi is in his might to uplift the soul in the heart aiming through the Ajna and see the Sahasrara; he unifies his heart through the individual OM in his Ajna chakra and then merges it with the universal vibration which is a permutation and combination of different vibrations of the primordial OM from which everything has originated. On a mystic note; OM is the only truth that needs to be realized with life for everlasting peace and beatitude.

Now it’s an individual’s choice to work on that OM and through Bhakti we reach a height where we understand the dictum “Vasudeva Sarvam Iti” or Lord Vasudeva is all that there is and it is a pricey eyewear called the Urdhva Pundraka which a Vaishnava marks on his forehead which is a mark of a walk-in faith towards Narayana. Likewise, a Muslim wipes his OM in the Ajna Chakra and marks there “La Ilahi il Allah” or verily his OM transmutes to Allah is everything and there is no god other than Allah through his faith and devotion towards Allah and in the fundamentals of Islam.

So in this process which starts from our childhood where we are made familiar with a god, aren’t we making gods with our concentration, faith, contemplation, and meditation? By reaching this point which echoes dictums, where many of our predecessors have stood, we go to a spiritual planet from where there is no return through the favor of God. Through the formation of those glasses with rigorous practice, Bhakti, and adhering to religion one can see crystal clear like water through this world by faith which is written in our foreheads and in religious scriptures.
