A Temple’s problem

When we think about a place of worship we take the god there for granted to be on our side for the petty meaningless things men donate or the crazy things that they do in the name of god. History has witnessed god to be not even part of nations or kings where it dwindled even after standing with god as they claim to be and Israel remains as the only nation with a standard covenant with god.

Do you think that your finances, health, education, progeny, or anything that you call yourself are God's concern? If not, then why do we equate our problems with that of the gods sitting in a temple, church, or mosque? I personally believe these are all human problems and humans should help each other in finding solutions like in a commune, brotherhood, or like the good Samaritan or good neighbors. Let a man grow in his god-given capacity in a society without pride and with love, affection, and care from his fellow beings and I believe that is the plan of God on earth for humans to live in brotherhood. Personally as a Hindu as per certificates; I believe the god sitting inside a temple is too big for me. He is exalted by great rishis and seers through numerous Suktams and Vedic chants as Narayana, Hari, Purusha, etc; a god who is inconceivable and unfathomable to human cognition other than by epiphanies, words, and images that don’t belong to the general human spectrum of consciousness or senses. To say that God who just deserves our praises and adoration lowers himself for our petty living is an insult to the almighty which the atheists unconditionally shower on in the society.

Now man would naturally dissent by words to my proposition even if it promises to deliver rivers of honey and milk in the land. Man dissents by words and agrees in peace and silence; In a way, if you notice every word that man utters in a conversation or to himself is in dissent and if he has to follow some idea or notion he does so in silence. Now such a movement would require a man to bend all actions in society to envision a new one and the idea would convert to a mass movement in a couple of decades or centuries to last maybe a millennium when I am thinking of contributing to a yuga and pull its do’s and don’ts.

I personally believe temples that house god should not just have an opinion in matters of faith but in every walk of life and should be the dispensers of godly laws called dharma in the society. They should house experts in matters of religion and theology and the problem of a temple should range from matters like inflation, global warming, deforestation, space exploration, bioengineering, terrorism, boundaries, law, and all major problems that the world faces today. Don’t you think that as the maker of this world god would show us the right paths to living and if we believe he can help with our petty problems then the problems of the world handled by experts who are otherwise idiots without any solutions should also be of god? In other words, temples should train monks and householders to speak on behalf of their gods and goddesses on a national and international platform and speak in the commonwealth or in the UN on behalf of a different dimension of advanced beings called gods who created the universe and life itself as per myths and folklores that our ancients believed and which was lost in time with lucid evidence submitted by science to humanity. Now where truth remains is a matter of debate and man can follow and submit either to religion or science as followers of truth and morals in human life and its development towards a society or growth. Temples should equip people in following morals, culture, arts, and customs in the society and equip the population to stand as reasonable citizens rooted in culture and traditions.
