Mind. That word is used in one too many places, don’t you think?
“You better keep that in mind.”
“Mind your language.”
“I can’t make up my mind.”
“The power of human mind is not completely unveiled yet.”
Of these four usages, I like the third and fourth ones.
The third one because, it voices a confused state which I am very much familiar with.
And, the fourth one because I totally agree with it.
I don’t know if that’s true but I think it is. If this statement is true, and if people believe it, then a lot of unexplained human behaviour can be accounted for.
A lot of beliefs (people who believe them call them that, whereas I would call them ‘superstitions’) would seize to exist.
Superstitions... super naturals...God.
Does God exist? I don’t know. "Does It"? Or is it “Does He?” Or “Does She?”
Does God have a gender?
Living things have genders.
God is living?
All living things die.
Then God will also die?
Hmm.
You know what I think? I think God exists inside everybody. That solves the gender problem. God can take the host’s gender.
You know what I think?
I think somebody way back the timeline felt that if humans have a feeling that there is no one above them or there is no reprimand for anything they do, they will become extinct. They will kill each other. So, that person made up a plot to save the mankind. The plot was titled “The Code”. And the hero of the plot, the good guy who punishes bad guys, was God.
I also think the concept of God is basically from the fear of being alone. Man is a social animal. Loneliness is a curse to him. So, he needed somebody to lean on, to be with, to comfort and protect him, to be confident that he is not alone. That somebody is God.
I have both these views. Both have its flaws.
Just try to remember, who told you there is something or someone called God?
May be your parents, your teachers, your grandparents, or somebody who talked to you.
Who told them?
May be some of these people in their lives.
It goes back and back... generations.
Where did this start?
Ancient scriptures? Religious textbooks?
But somebody should have written them.
So, who told that somebody?
There is no end to it people.
You can’t even see the way ahead. It’s misty.
There are many roads and many more by roads in each road.
You will get lost.
I know you will, because I already did.
