God

A question hounds our spirits

Our conscience refuses to bear it

Query which enthralls all

that God do You exist?

Religions preach of your existence

Wars being fought on Your so called insistence

Witnessed bloodshed for thousands of years

But couldn't witness Thee.

Men fear You all the while

Ready to suffer to make You smile

Agents mint money all the way

Tormenting us makes their day

Our fright has become their might

Begging for Your blessings day and night

But I do not find it just and right

So step down from heaven today

Arise to the hands that pray

And show your 'Viraata Roopa" to the world

Under the shower of sunlight

Freeing us from bonds of fright

Remove the misguiding universal veil

Make the religion of humanity prevail.

Hi. Is it not true that the minds of all good people question the world, their environment, and the universe?? I have known many people of varying religious belief who have questioned their faith and their teaching. I believe it is a good thing to query what we are told!!! alf

I personally believe that we must not blindly believe in everything we hear and must question our beliefs whenever we are unsure regarding a particular one. Ultimately the goal of all religions is and should be to make good human beings and thus we must all strive towards becoming so.

[wordman]

you are right

[Gurleen Saluja]

Thank you sir for an amazing write again, questioning almighty's existence and putting forward theories portrayed by different religions. :)

[Chirag Kumar]

Thanks for your kind review Gurleen :)

You're welcome.

As each of us gazes into the cosmos we see with the varying colors and ruminations of our eyes... You so powerfully reflect the horrid effects of certain eyes... thoughts... beliefs... trying to reduce the fullness of God's image to a poor human light... dim and shallow... Yes, may we find the depth of God in our daily lives, and find mercy and justice and love filling the earth once more...

Thanks for reviewing my work Froman :)

God gave us the earth, and we are supposed to use it rightly. He is not going to step down (unless you believe Christ did it) and show us how. We must find the way.

Thanks for reviewing my work Marie. Actually my aim here is to target those so called agents of God who terrorise people in the name of religion. Thus I call Him to banish them. But yes, unless and until we revolt and show such Godmen their place, God wont step down.

in hard times we seek god,but we can`t find him,so we wonder if he`s real
to find god, you must look daily when there is no trouble i go through the same stuff

[Chirag Kumar]

so true Wordman :) We forget Him when in gain only to search for Him when in pain

[Willard Wells]

Your final line is similar to my responses to the madness in the world also. We have to become better humans and care for each other rather than killing each other. Especially when it is the innocent who die for the most part. Thank you for sharing your powerful words and msg.
