Godly Sins::::Sins God`ed



What it takes to be god and still sin ...what it takes to be sinner and be god at it ...



I dont know the details of the struture,neither i am aware of the existence..nor i am a believer.But GoD exists,in our mindframe.In our psyche we keep him alive,in our prayers we power him with our fawning.All the time i,you and almost everyone on this green planet are trying to dial a number which seemingly has uncountable signal towers AKA the praying places,scores of providers AKA religions..but no concrete SIM.The no is busy,unreachable,switched off,out of service,on an answering m/c all at the same time for the same person.Afterall we keep on demanding more and more.Imagine a call centre employee of a customer care number listening to all the blabbering,jabbering and clapperclawing consumers with patience and solving their grievances.Thats the job profile of GOD.

     "To sin is to human ,to forgive is to god",the famous adage binds the heaven-manager to be the all pervading authority on "how to become an angel".The notion that we humans are humans afterall and hence are suseptible to sin is a convenience made by us to sin.We love to sin.It doesnt take us much convincing
to sin.We are born sinners,the only thing is the how good a sinner we are.GOD on the other hand is learning.Only a pupil..only a greenhorn...He will learn.
                             Under the able aegis of humans,the omnipotent is learning to do right things but in a wrong way as well as doing the wrong things but in a fashion that seems so right.The cloak of an ombudsman is an
illusion,the greatest deceit ever.What is an angel in the miracles goes backstage to change to being a satan of the misfortunes.Its always has been a give and take relationship and not the believed one of "man proposes and god disposes".God was there when the innocents were butchered,he was there when atrocities where committed,he was merely a bystander when the women were disrobed,children were rendered parentless and homeless.He made the atom bomb,he made the kalashnikov,he leaked the MIC in bhopal,it was his hand that cut daniel pearl....

But the point is,does he like it ?the blood,the gore,the misfortunes,crying masses,the ever spreading apathy and misery,the pandemics?He might turn out to be balance-keeper,someone who is there to take our actions in one pan and conjure another action completely complement of the same in the other.He might be neutral in his bearings.He might not be an emotional merciful lord as we project him to be,he might be just another magician who hides more than he reveals.Can we blame him then ?for all the gross injustices the world has seen and continues to see?,for all the inequalities? ,for all the immoralities?
                
We might not know it but as much as we despise and dole out profanities to god for not being there for us,we like to play god ourselves.We like to sin and worse we like to be god(ya not only good)at it.In a deep nook of our heart we want to rule,we want to do things that are good ,but not always!,we want to do bad things also, but not always!.Humans have traditionally been always inclined to the grand.The more the grandiose the better.The scale of doing a good deed more often than not pales in comparision with that of a bad one.And here we are talking of the sheer ruckus that a bad deed creates,the hullaballo,the commotion ,the din!The scale is big,the attraction more,hence more the chance of playing GOD.
                

But what about salvation,what about the final forgiveness?what about the checks and balances..the record of our sins and benignity?For whom the golden gates of HEAVEN are thrown open in welcome,and who are thrown in the fire bellied place of repent called HELL?Arent these questions are both asked and more often answered by us only?If we mull over it,we humans often make the questions that we know the answers already.The all alms giving ,nurturing,nourishing place ...the place of eternal rest and rewards ..heaven is in our heart only...The place of torture,of repent,of punishments,of a vicious demon burning bad souls in the oil of magma(as if they can be burned more !!!)...hell also resides within our human form only.The culmination of the formation and the vivid images associated with these mythical places comes from the innate fear we have about our actions.The day when we wont ask for salvation from god but from our own self,the day when we would love ourselves,the day we understand that death is just a beginning,that our life is just a rented ride ...that day we will see the universe within our own self and would cease to search for that bearded noble faced guy(not being gender bias,can be long haired serene faced lady also without any change in plot!!) more commonly know in circles as GOD.

                      Our whole existence is then governed by our own actions.We all have a piece of god within us.The god who partakes equally in the virtue and the vice.We are a small replica of the enlightened,and are again part of the great balancing act between the good and bad.In our heart is housed the choice...to be good most of the times or bad most of the times..we are the god ...of our will...of our actions.I doubt that as darkness cannot be discerped from light,bad deeds will be there and cannot be permanently squashed.But if we are able to be GOOD consistently then a time will come that we will break the vicious circle (O) of good and bad deeds and will tend towards GOD.

Every individual will continue to experience a morton`s fork...whether to be
a GOD(and sin!) or to be GOD`ed(and be sinned!)....


May God Bless you ...

PS:the above was written in jest..dont get offended and dont waiver in your faith in god ..he is always there ...just seek him within you ...you might surprise yourself...
