Where Is Our God?

Yesterday we were flipping Netflix to view a movie and we all in family unanimously agreed to watch PK. 

We were enjoying every bit of scenes and dialogues of an alien coming to Earth and struggling to find his stolen remote control to get back to his home planet. While searching his lost remote control he started finding God to plead for getting back his remote control. His journey of finding God led him to learn & emulate all the means and hardships. He accepted and acted rituals of all religions to find God. Finally he reached to the point that it is the man that has made God and created immense difference in human mankind.

This movie has sparked to think and introspect on our long and deep rooted believe system towards God. The learnings that we have from this movie are following:

1. It is man who created a fashion of different attire for Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christiian, Jain. It is nowhere a mark of God in our body visible at time of birth of a person to differentiate our religion. 

2. Most of people in this world are God fearing. Fear has led him to follow the pursuit of unaccounted rituals to please God not mankind. Act of offering milk to Shiva and Chadar to Prophet, Innumerous money & Bali offering to hindu Goddess are seen common. Will it possible to offer all these act to mankind?

Now bigger question arises where is our God?  What are its form? How does it look like? 

Let's take present context of the world, the world is grappling with the most treacherous time the mankind has seen in recent times and man and man made God are lockdown. But in this difficult time millions of people are lockdown, still many of people dare to offer the service to the mankind. They are working relentlessly without wearing the fashion of religion. It is quiet obvious that they forget that they have also family waiting at home, even they are more prone to get infection of covid 19 and risking the most to their life. They are actually God within us. If we recall our mythology, Rama & Krishna were incarnation of God served as a human being. In recent history of mankind, Gautam Buddha, Mahavir, Adi Shankaracharya, Mohamad Prophet, Guru Nanak, Jesus Christ, Mahatama Gandhi, Mother Terresa and many such like people all were human beings served their duties as mankind but revered as God. Like them, those are offering services to mankind in Covid 19 pandemic are God which may be recognised later. But with our intellect to decide whether they are true God among us. 

Can we offer prayers to them? Can we shift our attention & offering from man made God to true spirit of God? We should have firm believe that true spirit of God will end pandemic soon. Our God is residing within us serving the. mankind.
