Why I do believe in God?
-------------------------------------
I believe in God because my family taught me to do so. Though I am still doubtful about my own belief system, still when I feel low, I always remember someone/ something (not sure of him being a human) that I name as God. Also, to score good marks in examinations, to escape from embarrassment and for million more things, which will keep me ahead in this rat race, I appeal to some extra-terrestrial object that I name as God. Basically, I believe in God for my own selfish reasons. Interestingly, I take pain to go to the places of his worship when I am in my blues.
Never have I tried to question his/her/its authority, because I watched all the episodes of Ramananda sagar made Ramayan and Mahabharat in my childhood. Today, I can endlessly talk about growing fanaticism in religion, without knowing anything about them(Including my religion). In reality, I am a God fearing organism, who believes more in destiny (I still can’t infer the meaning) than in his own effort.
Still, I am a firm believer of God; up to that extent that I have never dared to start this word with small cap (i.e ‘g’). I want to continue with this status, as it does not harm me in any way.
Perhaps I believe in God because this is something very personal to me, who can’t be shared with anybody. Who works as my mentor, who listens to my prayers (If I can call it), my faith that he will never dump me? This is the insecurity, which forces me to believe on my lord.
