GOD- my feelings


Religion is the thing that confuses me a lot. At a point where logic ends and faith starts, u can't

argue much. Try to argue and u will hear things like "don't talk like that abt god, its a sin!"

or "u and ur eccentric ideas, u will certainly go to hell!!". my gosh! Gimme a break!!!!


There are many aspects in Hinduism which are beyond my understanding.

They say God is one, he is omniscient and blah blah.... that's pretty decent. But how come

the god in tirupathi be more powerful than the same god in the temple at the end of ur street???

what's the need to travel that much distance, wait in queue for long hours, scolding ur self(as u r not supposed to scold god) and finally come out of temple with a sigh of relief " thank god! It's over!".

when i ask them "y". they say "God is testing u... by waiting to see him, u r proving ur patience."

When i say " that's wonderful. Why don't u stand in free darshan queue and prove u r patience by waiting to see him for 50 hours rather than buying 100/- ticket and waiting for 4 hours."

they simply say" u r talking like a fool". May be...... but i'm a reasonable fool!!!


Or when i ask them "Y", The answer they give to me is "kshetra mahatyam"( holiness of the place) and i am lost again.

Is the mahatyam in god or the place??


The power of gods vary depend on the season also!!!

kaarhika masam - Lord shiva is more powerful

dhanurmasam - Lord vishnu is more powerful


Almost forgot to tell u ........ there are many discounts and rebates available here.


Did u offer to come to tirumala if ur wish come true?? Don't u have enough time or money??

Don't worry!!! Visit Dwaraka tirumala........ God will forgive u!(very convenient.. uh?)


Light a lamp( pramida) with 365 threads in it on last day of kaarthika maasam in temple of shiva and u will get the effect of lighting a lamp for a whole year!!!( this is the most hilarious one!)


I know some of these silly rules are introduced for our convenience and not a part of ancient hinduism. But what i want to highlight is the mentality of the people who always look for short cuts.


I know i will never stop if i continue like this. Thats why i stop here. I have Lots of my eccentric feelings to tell u. I will tell u more in my next post.

FANS OR FANATICS???

Recently, my friend and me went to a movie. We got the tickets and waiting outside...suddenly we heard some agitation in adjascent hall. We went to see what it was.

A group of people were beating a man severely... he is pleading mercy. But there were no sign of
mercy in their eyes... they were scolding him severely... they also smashed him with a cycle.

We didnt understand what was the crime committed by that man. I asked a man there and
strartled by his answer. The victim there commented negatively about a mega hero's movie.

What was even more surprising is the response of my friend..."adi guruvu gaari power ante..."
(thats the power of our boss). I started arguing with him and in no time I realised its no use.

I dont understand these fan(atic)s. Everybody knows that the movie was average, even if its not, everybody is entitled to his own opinion... its a basic right to have opinion.. isn't it??
just bcoz he said that movie was bad, u cant beat him to death. but, if my educated friends are supporting this, how can I except the hardcore fans to behave better??

Sometimes I get this weird feeling that these guys are fanatics, not fans....

So what do u say?
