What is religion...but a guiding path to God. Don't all religions advocate existence of one...and only one God?Don't they preach love, brotherhood, peace, goodwill, kindness and humanity??Then why every religion has a blood stained history??Why do institutions spreading such noble messages have a bloody past and present??Not one if them is half as pure and virgin as the ideal..
It is said that no two human beings are the same...differences are in appearances, thoughts, habits...but they all are human beings who live together in a house..a community..a region...
Religions, similarly, are a product of individual ideals and ideas..and are understandably different from one another. But essentially they all point to the same direction..aka..GOD!!Still they are at loggerheads with one another.
The need and desire to completely eradicate the presence of one by another is unfathomable to me..This intense hatred and loathing is on display every other day in our motherland by way of slaughtering, terrorizing and vandalism is simply DISGUSTING...i fail to understand the point of view or logic...my guess is that there ain't any...
What can be the reason behind unreasonable massacres but HATE for everything that God stands for...how can a religion justify inflicting brutality and death as a path to pious living,...a path to God?How can anybody be labeled as a believer or non-believer on the basis of the religion he follows?
They say that there is method in every madness. I agree...these are surely the methods of the DEVIL...

no reason, no rhyme...
Today, i write my first blog entry ever...
This is my attempt to pour out some thoughts on this medium and try and get some perspective. Collecting information is useless until assimilated...assimilation is exactly what i aim to do.
Life is said to be abysmal in every respect...is it a preparatory journey from one unknown place to another? is it celebration of the gift of life, vigour and beauty?is it a material realm meant to be bypassed to reach a higher spiritual realm?these are some incoherent and unoriginal questions that come to my mind when i think of concept or logic behind our existence.
I am not religious, am not an enthusiastic temple visitor...cant remember the last time i went into one of those, i cant recite more than a couple of prayers, dont know one bhajan from another, and absolutely dont believe in idol worship. But i am a believer. I have faith in a higher power.
I dedicate my first writing to the Almighty.
RADHASOAMI!!
