There is a column in Times Life, namely 'God and I'. Inspired by that column, I am sharing my ideas here..
I find God in... I feel His presence in everything around me. It may be the nature, children, creativity or our own conscience; He is everywhere. My belief in Almighty gives me optimism, strength and confidence.My love for Him has taught me to be simple and genuine.
How do I connect to God? Whenever I am distressed or in doubt, I judge the situation with my conscience. I appreciate myself when I do something good and the call from my inner soul makes me connected with Him.
Karma and Kismat to me.. I believe nothing is predestined. One can build his 'kismat' by his 'karma'. I believe in Newton's 3rd law. :-). You will get exactly what you deserve!
True contentment lies in... To be simple is divine. Be happy and try to make others happy. Keep the child in you alive and at the end of the day always be clear to yourself. These can bring the ultimate contentment.
P.S. While writing this post I just realized, we start pronouns with capital letters(in the mid of a sentence) only in two cases, when we refer to God or when we refer to ourselves i.e. the ' I ' . Does not it indicate that we should give the same priority, love and respect to ourselves just as we give the Almighty? What say?
Good post. I completely feel the same about how you relate to God; He isn't a different entity, he's within us and in our surroundings.
ReplyDelete" I believe nothing is predestined."
Me neither. But the thing is, if you think about it, "everything is predestined"; meaning that the fact that "you get what you deserve" was also predestined. Every action you do, you were meant to do it. It's apparently out of your control. But that doesn't mean you should stop trying, either. That should be the real message!
thanx priya nice post..
ReplyDeletei do support your view..by "nothing is predestined" i wanna say, it is not prewritten that you will b happy or sad, successful or failure...your approach towards life and your actions will ultimately decide everything..again if you treat others well, they will treat you in the same way but if you disrespect others nobody will respect you and you will loose love care and respect of others
