ATHEIST OR THEISM?

IT WAS ANOTHER USUAL EVENING WHEN PETER LOOKED AT HIMSELF IN THE MIRROR AND THOUGHT TO VISIT BARBER FOR A CLEAN SHAVE AND A PRESENTABLE TRIMMED HAIRCUT. SINCE LAST 4 YEARS HIS  TRUSTED BARBER HAS BEEN THE SAME. SO HE VISITS TO HIS USUAL BARBER SHOP “EDDY’S CLIPPINGS AND CUTZ”

“HEY EDDY! BEEN MONTHS SINCE I HAD A GOOD HAIRCUT. ALSO I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE CLEAN SHAVE”

“SURE! GOOD TO SEE YOU PETER SIR, HOW HAVE YOU BEEN?”

 BOTH EDDY AND PETER GET ALONG WITH SMALL TALKS AND THEN TO VARIOUS REGULAR DISCUSSION AS USUAL. 

AND AFTER SOMETIME THEY BOTH TOUCH TO THE TOPIC OF “GOD EXISTENCE”

“OH,SIR I DONT BELIEVE IN GOD AS MUCH AS YOU DO”,SAYS EDDY.

“WHY DONT YOU BELIEVE?”, QUESTIONS PETER.

“I DONT REALLY NEED TO GIVE YOU MUCH EXPLANATION. JUST GO OUT ON STREETS AND LOOK OVER THE POVERTY. THERE ARE PEOPLE SUFFERING, LACKING RESOURCES,CRYING OUT FOR HELP. YOU DONT HAVE TO LOOK OVER OUTSIDERS, LOOK AT ME. I WORK FOR 12 HOURS AND STILL I DONT GET ENOUGH EXPEDITION FOR MY BASIC NEEDS. IF GOD WOULD HAVE EXISTED, I DONT THINK PEOPLE WOULD HAVE SUFFERED.”

PETER CHUCKLED.

PETER DID NOT REALLY RESPONDED TO AVOID AN ARGUMENT.

AS PETER WAS LEAVING THE SHOP, HE NOTICES A MAN WITH TOO MANY BEARD AND UNKEPT HAIR ALLOVER ENTERING THE SHOP.

PETER ENTERS AND SAYS,”BARBERS DOESNT EXISTS.”

“HOW CAN YOU SAY THIS? YOU JUST TOOK A HAIRCUT FROM ME. WE DO EXISTS”, EDDY SAYS

“AH! IF BARBERS WOULD HAVE EXISTED, PEOPLE WOULD NEVER HAVE HAD BEARDS AND HAIR ON THIER FACES.”,SAID PETER 

“NOO!! THATS NOT TRUE, WE DO EXISTS. ITS JUST THAT PEOPLE DONT COME TO US OFTEN. THEY COME TO US ONCE THEY FEEL THE NEED TO.” SAYS EDDY.

“EXACTLY! MAYBE EVEN GOD EXISTS. ITS JUST THAT YOU DONT REACHOUT, BELIEVE OR CALL OUT FOR HELP.”,CONCLUDES PETER.

BELIEVING IN GOD, DOESNT ALWAYS MEAN CHANTING RELIGIOUS PRACTICES, HAILING LORD AND DOING RITUALS. 

THERE ARE MULTIFARIOUS RANGE OF PEOPLE WHO IDOLISE GOD EVERYDAY. BUT WHAT EXACTLY IS HAPPENING?

WHEN ONE WORSHIPS SOMEONE FROM THE BOTTOM OF THEIR HEART AND FOCUSES ON THAT PRACTICE WITH ALL THIER WHOLE AND SOUL, THEY ARE MEDITATING! YES, GOD EXISTS IN ALL FORMS. ITS A FORM WHERE A PERSON DOESNT CONNECT TO AN IDOL. IT CONNECTS TO ITS SOUL. IT DEVELOPS A CONNECTION OF “REALISATION” AND TRUE SELF. THIS IS AN ACT OF CONNECTING DOTS. AS SAID BY HINDU MYTHOLOGY,”ITS OUR KARMAS, WHO DESTINED US TO CERTAIN THINGS.” YES, WHEN YOU DISCONNECT FROM OTHER DISTRACTION AND DIVE INTO YOUR OWN SOUL BY THE NAME OF SPIRITUALITY, YOU BEHAVE CONSCIOUSLY, TAKE LIFE DECISIONS CALMY AND THATS HOW YOU KEEP YOUR KARMAS. 

ITS ALWAYS SAID,”WHERE SCIENCE ENDS, SPIRITUALITY BEGINS.” 

THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT ARE UNANSWERED BY SCIENCE AND THERE EXISTS A POWER BEYOND THIS.

ITS NOT ABOUT YOU PRACTICING RITUALS. ITS TRULY ABOUT BELIEVING A FORM, THAT CONNECTS YOURSELF TO YOUR DEEP SOUL TO KNOW YOU!!
