Thanks. > > Maruti In my humble opinion, the word "GOD" is the most mis-understood word. Who exactly is "GOD" ? Is S/He somebody up there in the sky, judging and deciding your fate down on earth ? NO !!! The TRUE GOD is right within you, closer to you than your very breath. GOD is the very best personal friend that you can ever have; GOD dwells with YOU, and for YOU. Isn't it funny, that we live our lives from moment to moment, from day to day, from year to year , without KNOWING who exactly is this being who resides WITHIN ? GOD is YOUR OWN SELF !!! I don't think, any religion would object to worship of such A GOD ! Be Happy ! ganesh PS : I have only tried to set you thinking - MAYBE, what you know or have learnt about GOD is wrong. This presents Just another PERSPECTIVE of looking at things - a different ONE and I feel comfortable with it. Ofcourse, constructive Flames are welcome and I shall try to answer them.
