WHY GODS DO NOT LISTEN TO OUR FRACTURED PRAYERS?
-Dr. Jernail Singh Anand
President, International Academy of EthicsWhen we are performing as human beings, every day we pray to gods. But do you think they respond? All our prayers are not worth listening, and therefore, most of them are declined.
Reason: We are praying only for ourselves. We are crazy, to think only of our wellbeing, or at the most of our family, and now we have added our castes, creeds too. Gods wonder why we are not worried about their creation, which supports us.
Such a fractured prayer provokes derision. When people start organized prayers and ask for boons at the cost of the wellbeing of the society, these prayers are summarily denied.
Gods are there not to listen to your personal problems. The theory of ‘Karma’ is there, and the list of criminal acts and their punishments, is widely circulated. These things happen automatically. Men start suffering as soon as they step on the sword. Touch the live electric wire. Will it ask the International Court of Justice to react?
Justice is instant. The moment you do something wrong, you start suffering in your mind. Has a murderer ever had a full night’s sleep? You can dodge the world’s courts, as we see how gullible justice is, but Gods cannot be treated like this.
We have invented artificial intelligence. We have CCTV cameras. We have forensic laboratories. But Gods have far more sophisticated spy systems, through which they create havoc in the mind of evil men. Did Dr. Faustus ever had a night’s sleep after he slept with the Devils? Macbeth’s fall from human grace shocks us. If you want to see what happens to the evil men, they are classic examples. Did any human court arraign them?
The court that arraigned them has its seat within their hearts. It is the Invisible Court of Inevitable Justice which sets nemesis after the evil-doers.
We often say: Virtue is its own reward. So, it can be said, Evil too is its own award. One step aside, and the train derails causing death and destruction, and it takes a whole effort to put it back on the rails.
Suffering arises out of actions performed which were not granted by gods. Gods don’t listen to our inordinate desires, passions, and prayers. When things do not happen as we wish, we take the law in our own hands. And inflict our ‘personal’ justice. Try to get even with the presumed wrongs committed against us. But such an action falls into conflict with the divine justice. Hence, suffering.
THE CENTRAL ISSUE:
The central issue is: Where to stop. How to read the writing on the Wall. Or in other words, HOW TO READ THE MIND OF THE GODS?
I have said in an earlier writing that Gods do not talk in our language. Their language is different. They talk with signals which we are not taught to decode. Here I provide an easy access to the Language of Gods. They converse with your souls, through a SOUL TO SOUL NETWORK. Look within. Listen to your internal voice which remains submerged. Gods speak loudly in that silent voice. Here is the clue. They will never approve of any deed which is not proper. If we start listening to the INTERNAL VOICE, and acting accordingly, IT WOULD BE A BETTER WORLD.
