The Belief

The theory of relativity applies among the other important things to the belief or disbelief in GOD.God can be the idol that we worship everyday in our houses and temples,for some the word can have many other definitions, for still others there is nothing called God that exists and that the whole world is besieged by the laws of science. Thus this clichéd notion of the God doesn't culminate in the two classes of the believers and the skeptics but has a plethora of ideas behind it. For those who are devout believers of the God i.e. Vishnu,Shiva,Jesus,Allah,Guru Nanak,etc, they have blind faith in their God and it is a felony if one doesn't believe in God.The chanting of mantras,poojas ,fasts,etc,become the various to come closer to God. This belief infuses in them the support system which acts as a cushion to any shocks that they might face; He becomes the confidant for making all of their confessions. This belief also bring with it its carrot and stick policy of doing good and getting rewarded and punishments for bad deeds. This happens to be for the larger good which makes this world a better place to live. This divine power becomes their guiding light which follows them all throughout their lives. This belief is a constant fuel of hope for life, which keeps people going even in times of despair.
Also there are those for whom God has no image,no name but it is an essence which is with them. God for them may just exist in the light or the rain or their work. They also have their own unique ways of worship whether it is a total dedication to their work or just being a good person.
Some also take the middle-path of convenience of changing parties according to the changing circumstances. They are blind believers in some cases and non-believers in others. They use the belief as their defense and support mechanisms and on the other hand the rituals and duties that come along with it are considered ills of orthodox thinking.
Last but not the least are those who don’t believe in the existence of God and state that the world is run by the laws of science. Their mechanism in times of despair is time. Time is the greatest healer and that is what they would rely on to face the tough side to life, they scientifically gauge the right and wrong and accordingly.
It is not about who takes which path but about where they reach treading that path. Whatever path one chooses to walk on, whatever one chooses to believe, it should take them to humanity, harmony and truth.

The Mystique Shower

It is that day of the week again,the day to sit in oblivion,a day to let go of one's self.A rainy day,a day that brings forth many certain and uncertain thoughts to mind.A day when you want to laze around on your linen,lying on your stomach,hands on cheeks and smiling at the birds pecking on the pools of water,longing to get wet in the rain and jumping on those pools.
The day when many couples would walk by the sea hand in hands and singing old bollywood songs.The day when you want to make a nice tea and sit with yourself.The day when one would want to start scribbling their diaries to control the upsurge of feelings.This day makes the concrete jungle seem as beautiful as the hills.
When the serene surroundings beckon us to let our emotions go haywire,this day makes every girl appear as a belle.A day when you want to keep listening to that one melody again and again.
It is that day of the week again when footballers would play with such enthusiasm as though in the world cup in muddy grounds and soiling their clothes and dancing that peculiar way on a goal.
It is a day when children would make boats out of stale newspapers and set them asail onthe streams of water running down the colony streets and they running with them.
It is that day of the week again.......................... which arouses endless feelings.
