" Those who in the name of Faith embrace illusion, Kill and are Killed! "
I had an opportunity of going through these lines once and these words easily managed to dissolve in my blood and are still flowing through me!
Frankly speaking, i don't know the exact meaning of Faith and religion. I consider myself as God fearing and not God loving, and due to human psychology, i always see myself in other persons also! Can you tell what was the exact purpose of the religion?
According to my over thinking brain, i believe that Religion defined a set of protocols that became so popular just because they could withstand the passage of centuries. Even now, if we thoroughly extract the meaning of words in "aartis, chalisa's or any other shabad's" , we will observe that they still hold true and hold morality. For instance, " JIN SEVEYA, TIN PAAYA MAAN " -these shabads(holy words) come in Japuji Sahib, the initial prayer in Sikhism. They mean that Those who serve the Name of God by meditating on Him and walking on those protocols will serve himself/herself in the end. It's quite clear that if we work upon something, we are always benefited by it, though the levels of satisfaction may vary from person to person.
The motive of sharing my feelings is that i merely want to express the mirage caused when various situations occur in our life when we've to decide that whether Religion is to be followed or not!
The key, i think is to take Religion patiently, understand it, and secretly imply it. It(Religion) is a sea of knowledge with infinite depth. And i believe there's no loss of gaining knowledge about something that was,is and will be always be true. :-)
