"Tu hai ki nahi?" meaning Do you exist or not? This question often lingers on our head. We all have been in situations where we ask if God really exist. Sometimes, its not any situation but just our state of mind.
Its been a while since I started observing that I've now started disliking going to temple. I'm not against God. But, God doesn't solve my problems. Moreover, the class difference I see in society especially when some people are not allowed to go inside the temple is something I disapprove of. Yes, I'm a Brahmin and this modern day Brahmin has no airs about who is entering the temple or not or with whom I'm sitting and having a lunch with. So, why such discriminations. We must realise that time has changed now. Those cultures and traditions that I do not understand, what significance do they hold for me? Frankly, nothing. Null. Void.
I had written in my older post titled "God a boundation or a belief?", that modern day living leaves me no time to read to religious texts and seek meaning of life or problems. So these days, I read more of quotes on social media or blogs or some Guru's quotes. When I read the blogs, I find them more meaningful. I can relate to what a blogger has written. Random quotes too sometimes makes so much sense to me. Sometimes, I'm struck with a thought on my head and can't find answer to it. Like I said before, I don't read a religious books but it is these quotes and blogs that help me. It makes me think that I'm no different. It suggests sometimes the things are just the way they are. If I'm not feeling good, talking to a friend, watching a good movie, a nice drama, uplifting and soothing music and awesome food helps me feel better. These are the ways sometimes, I vent out my frustration and sad mood. I see "God" in people and these little things and in its creations.God has created all the things and even those which makes me happy and feel better.

However, I still feel as I don't get answers from my God in the same pace as my life is building up. There has to be a new religion to which most of us can connect asap! By religion, I mean it may be an idea. Today we need the idea that connects us and not discriminates us. An idea of being good. An idea which holds relevance for the present and for the future. My idea on God, I've already shared. So, what is your idea? Please post your views. I will be happy to engage in a dialogue with you.
