Do you Fear DEATH?

Sitting on this table, with a plain white screen, I sit with totally nothing in my Head. A blank face, a blank page and a blank mind all metaphorizing the emptiness that embodies me. I close my eyes into a stiff darkness with only the sound of a tap dripping small droplets of water and a fan spinning with a squeaking sound that gives a rather monotonic impression of my life which seems to sag on me as the seconds pass.

In this darkness and a closed environment I drop into a realm of thoughts a never ending labyrinth of ideas and unexplainable things and undefined theories. I stand clueless of the reason behind my presence here, seeking the deeper meaning of this.

Questions seem to hit me like a ray of Sun, soaking in me and changing the way I feel, changing the way i perceive and changing the way I see. I feel sick, sick from within. My cells seem to tell me something by getting heated up, my body scorches more than the scorching heat. It has been like this for a long time now, with people being unable to cure me, i seek within. I seek Answers. I seek the message beyond.

Why do we fear death? Why is it that we fear loss when we die but not when we live?

We live all our lives trying to put things in order, trying to fix mistakes that we have already done and trying to make friends when we all know that the second we die, all this would be of no relevance. We crawl back into the same place where we once came from, leaving behind all that we gained in the due course. What is left behind also is not our valued and possessed articles but our name.

The name that Symbolises the values we possess, the deeds we did and the paths we chose. Our friends will remember us for who we were and not what we were. Thus, I seem to fail to understand why we spend most part of our lives trying to shape "What we are" rather than "Who we are". This is what we need to inculcate in our lives, to shape our future in terms of our values and not on material terms, take decisions in line with our Charachter, thus leaving a mark in the world for the better. An effect on people's lives which makes their life happier and peaceful.

Why do you need to fear death if you have already done what you ought to. People on the other hand will only have fear when they run behind shaping their life on terms of assets and not on ethics.

Even if you start now you will be rewarded well for your efforts as even when you die, these will be the things that you will be remembered with. So.....

"You decide whether you would want to shape your future by focussing on your present or fear your future by misusing your present."

God v/s Religion

Religion, this is something that the world takes so seriously, but I don't. Not because I am an Athiest but because religion is Manmade and not something foreordained by God himself. I love God and I believe in his existence but I do not understand that when God remains the same, why do we need to name him differently just for the sake of certain sects of society.

"I believe in God, not in Jesus or Ram."

On a more factual basis, I will strengthen my idea on God by saying, "Is there any place in the bible where it is said that GOD is saying something in First Person????......"NO", the whole Bible is in Third person. This means Bible is just a narrative and not "The words of God himself"

By this, I do not mean that we stop believing in these texts, these texts were written only to do this, "For us to Believe", but then why were they written then, are these stories real and true????

In my humble opinion, these stories are a proof of how humans are.

Humans have always been physical and materialistic in their mindsets, they could never believe completely something which they could not see, also relating to why we have such a Science influenced world now. Understanding this, our ancestors, who wrote these texts knew that if they relate values to stories and give them a physical form, it would be easier for generations to come to relate to them and learn from them.

What is God?

Well before explaining that, just take into account this; "Have you ever thought why these religious texts are similar in values but different in content?

It is because as it is said, God resides in everyone, (God in this sense are values, values of character and morals) , what they, our ancestors did was simply to have written down these values in form of stories to pass to progenies and thus be a point of contact for morals in the future.

Just imagine, only then it is posssible that all of them have different stories but the same values in them, no two persons can write the same story on a given moral, they will be different.

So finally,

"God is a certain set or pooling of ideal qualities that each person should possess in order for him to be the best of what he can be"

This brings us to another part of my theory, "Can we write a religious text?"

Yes we can, because every human has the same values and morals in life, it is only his choice what stories he designs to pass it on to the future. When we remember God,we see a particular image in our minds for him. But why can we not see him in a gangster dress and still show the same qualities.

We CAN, it is only a matter of time when that image be then in the minds of it's followers!!!

You might be thinking by now that if we all have the same qualities and values, why are there terrorists and crooked people in this world. it is because God gave us these values but also gave us the power to choose whether or not to follow them. This power of Choice brings us a balance of Good and bad in this world.

Then what happens to the prophets and messengers of God, they were only people who showed a true image of a how a person with these qualities would be like, they were the ideals in terms of that generation so there importance and existence was also very essential, as there life can be taken as an example by everyone.

Therefore, the texts that these religions so gladly depend on are just visual portayal of idealistic character for us to learn from and Grow.By my ideas, I do not mean to hurt the feelings of others but just to putforth something that I beliove in.

"God doesn't want religions, he just needs Love, Love among US"
