Religion...

I know it is a very controversial!

re-le(d)ge-ion

{
Re=Again

Ledge= A projecting ridge on a mountain or submerged under water/ Some thing Visible!

Ion= A particle that is electrically charged (positive or negative); an atom or molecule or group that has lost or gained one or more electrons/ Something NOT visible

}

NO, I am not a Athiest, I am A firm believer of MY RELIGION..( ...dont ask me what)

My thoughts were triggered in a party when some mentioned something about religion and My though thread went in a tangent:

If you take up IDEALISM approach to social structure, Implying our belief systems are goverened by what we see and hear and are told.

My belief about what is religion:
Some ONE ( gOD?..no human ) intiated pseudo-facts about GOD(like)s!

Who had Abilities out of the nornal human scope!

in all domains.. physical, emotional, meta-anything!

All these were made / told / re-told for various purposes.

- to explain the then un-explianed

- to create abstract nouns.. Fath.. and allied.

.. the list can on on...

But the main FOCUS of what i believe relision wanted to address, got lost..
the main focus being to

- CONTAIN HUMAN BEINGS MIND( from flowing in to tengents which were then not considered correct)

- TO CONTAIN FROM HARMING OTHERS

- WRONG DOINGS ( SO DEFINED)
.. and list goes on..

All these got lost..
got lost coz

THEY( here they is GOD(LIKE) beings or their harbingers)

all forgot
- that THEY too were humans!!
- THAT power currupts!

Many tried..

every try got a different name/ a different religion..

Minute flways of one caused futher complications due to potential and later evident CONFLICTS

and LO!!
here we are a huge huge bunch.. Just like the MONKEY story I told earlier!!

so what is religion to you?? tell me..

well, that was a very commendable breakup of the word religion!!
u did it urself?

and well, im not a firm beliver in any religion. i mean, even tho i am a hindu i dont really get involved in the rituals and stuff, coz i just see no logical thread and i dont wanna believe in superstitions!
but i do respect all religions and i greatly believe that there is a god, but my actions are wat me make responsible for the way my life is shaping and is not the doing of any god!

for a while ive been extremely unhappy with the institutionalised aspect of religion..
i mean, yeah, many ppl speak of the comfort that rituals give them.. and i can see their point. Only i dont find comfort in them, maybe coz of the associations my mind goes on to perceive with rituals etc..

but i think that's not what ure talking abt at all, right?

( after so many different posts which came and went away , I am writing a little about change) Do you know how much we change everyday!! And how much we potentially can.. Just a few fates Our body PHYSICALLY changes completely within a span of 10 days.( how, You may Ask?) The Atoms quantitative each and every cell of our body ranging from our blood cells, skin cells..Even our Bones CHANGE completely in a month. Which means , not only do they die and regeneraqte in their respective cycles, the material quantitative them is exchanged / changed with the outside world. ( Can you absorb the above line, its pretty awe striking) WHO are you?.. You have completely changed in a span of a month time.. ( Your hand.. Wash part of something/ someone else last onto) My belief about The Flux of our thoughts has been published here and here ! ( Though this may have come in another entry, but related) a SINGLE though in our mind.. POTENTAILLY ( and does so physically everyday) Creates a chemical.. phy

Life

Yeah even when u think all fits, you notice quite a few things dont. The latest curveball my boss threw during the appraisal, threw me in a spin. Why am I feeling again that I am not supposed to be in this job? And If I am not then,...what? Should I also move out of the city!!.. what to do..!! shoudl not spend a lot of time in putting the puzzle pieces, Maybe life is more of living the puzzle than making all the sense, maybe its someone else's job!!

LOG

Its your decisions and not your conditions that chnage your destiny The secret of success is using PAIN and PLEASURE instead of pain and pleasure using you! If you do that you are in control , otherwise life is!! NOTHING IN LIFE HAS ANY MEANING EXCEPT THAT MEANIING YOU GIVE IT Things do not change, we change Its not actual pain that drives us but our fear that something will lead to pain Its not pleasure that dirves us, but our belief-our sense of certainity that somehow taking a certain action will ITS NOT THE EVENTS OF OUR LIFES THAT SHAPE US , BUT OUR BELIEFS AS TO WHAT THOSE EVENTS MEAN! BELIEFS ARE POWER TO CREATE AND POWER TO DESTROY! WE ARE WHAT WE ARE BECAUSE WE FIRST IMAGINED IT Achieveing our goals will never make us happy in the long run; It s who we become as we overcome the obstacles necessary to achieve your goals, that can give us the deepest and most long lasting sense of fulfillment! A TRUE DECISION IS THE ONE YOU CAN ACT UPON, AND ACT UPON NOW!! Knowing what to do
