BEING AN ATHEIST

“I am an Atheist. I do not believe in anything which is not seen or is not proven.”I heard someone say in my class. I was just looking at him in awe. I was totally astonished to see as to how at this age, a person can differentiate between something Supreme & Pitiable. Then while I was just thinking about this, a question roused in my mind-If he is in a situation wherein he  encounters something supernatural or like that, won’t his conscience utter, ”GOD, HELP PLEASE”. Or why only supernatural, even if a person is on a death row or severally ill will he not say ,”GOD PLEASE SAVE ME”. Or let us take a common example, If a person is to go for an interview or an exam, won’t he say, “GOD PLEASE MAKE IT SIMPLE”.

In every situation a person asks GOD for help irrespective of their deeds. And this generally I say generally, does happen. I have no objection on a person of being an Atheist or I am not accusing anyone but my question is that if such a situation in which one knowingly or unknowingly asks GOD for something then why to pretend to be an Atheist? Today man is being more materialistic in the name of Science. Science is something only believable is what the only perception made. What science proves is existing & what has no evidence cannot exist. Now a days this is becoming common; where man is going after money & has no social life. This cannot be true for all but somewhere something someone is going that way.

I have met many such young boys & girls who say that-“Why to believe GOD. He doesn’t fulfill any of my wish?” There a question arises. Is GOD only for the sake of fulfilling wishes? And that too only of human beings? According to shastras GOD created life. LIFE includes NATURE, ANIMALS, BIRDS, TREES, etc & lastly the HUMAN BEINGS. Then HE is not subjected to look only after humans. HE has many other things to do too. And if HE is subjected to fulfill your wish then I think, people, you are blessed to be born as  human being. HE has fulfilled your wish to be born as a human & now has left up to you as to how you lead your own life.

Man, being or without being materialistic, is surrounded by many odds. GOD has given you that strength, that power to examine & do as per what is good for you & hence blessed you are. Blessed are you that you are able to think, speak & act well. Just think about those small insects or mammals who neither can speak out their grief nor the happiness. They have to lead their own life in misery.

Recently I saw someone saying GOD does not exist & that too standing in a temple. Now, how hollow does that sound for a first instance? Irrespective of him just visiting a temple as a ritual or a family function etc.  Whatever the reason may be, he visited the temple; he stood in front of the IDOL; he joined his hands & how blindly can he say that GOD does not exist.

In my view if I just get out of the house & reach home safely, then I think that GOD does exist. If I slightly escape an injury then yes GOD does exists. And if I feel refreshed in a temple, yes, GOD does exist.  If I believe in my fate then YES GOD does exist. Of course this is my opinion.

The worst thing that has ever happen is that today GOD is being looked at as a mere institution to whom a man can ask anything or do anything in HIS name. That’s being  ridiculously materialistic. According to HINDU  Shastra  there had been four Yugas  namely-Satyayug, Tretayug, Dvaparyug & Kaliyug which is presently going on. Now this Kaliyug is something at the end of which, is believed that whatever is living including Earth will get destroyed. And in which Man would be at his WORSTS. If at all an Atheist is to believe in this thing still, he cannot deny the fact that today Man is at his WORSE & will be at his WORST. Now finally one can conclude that whatever man is or was or will be is due to his own deeds.

To scientific people who say that GOD does not exists because we cannot see HIM or prove HIS existence, to them I would like to say that at the end of the day there somewhere is the connection between science & spirituality. While I was thinking all about this I finally came to the conclusion that is the difference between the existence & non-existence of GOD is same as the difference between a person being pessimist & an optimist.

MAY GOD BLESS THE WHOLE OF MANKIND.
