God - beyond religions

He is everything there is, everything there can be...

And yet he's so mine. Totally mine.

I can converse with him at the dirtiest of locations.. And you know what, he doesn't mind.. I love him 'coz he never requires me to visit temples or follow rituals.. He pats on my back when I do something good.. Yet, he saves me from an overdose of pride and perpetuates my desires to achieve further.. He fills me with guilt when I do something wrong.. But also gives me the chance to correct and improve myself.. He rarely makes me feel that I'm special.. And still makes sure that I don't feel like a loser..

To me God is matter.
To me He is energy.
And to me He is the link between the matter and energy.
He is what created the universe.
He is what runs the universe.
He is what the universe is.
He is everything there is, everything there can ever be...

That's my hypothesis. And if it's true, I should be able to love everything, good or bad, alike.


Laws of spirituality

Religion is a thing of the past. Science is the new fashion. What we ignore, however, is how these two concepts integrate.

My ability to appreciate science makes me believe that our spiritual world must be driven by some laws.

I don't think God sits at the door of heaven to perform background check on individuals and grant entry to a dream holiday. I don't accept that he hires people to torture sinners. I don't agree that he hates the non-believers. (If he did, why would he give them the brains to be non-believers in the first place!) And I don't believe he keeps a track of who's consuming non-veg on Tuesdays, or who enters the temple during menses. Someone/Something so majestic cannot possibly dislike his own creation. What he could possibly do is assign some spiritual laws that guide our lives like the physical laws that guide the world.

We got to be scientific in our enquiry of the truth!
