This blog or rather the below answers are based on my knowledge of GOD. I do trust him and believe him .
1) Existence ?
The never ending argument any day would be to argue about God Existence? My answer to this question if you are interested go and find him. If I give a straight forward answer “yes” many of you would start negating giving your own reasons. I am not asking you to find the GOD for me , if you are interested then go and find
2) Why he is not visible ?
The reason he‘s invisible because you never wished to see him . If ever you visited a temple or mosque or a church did you pray wish to see GOD . No, never you did that . You always asked for materialistic pleasures like money, marriage , onsite , lover or something else. Best example for this is Chilkur Balaji Temple in Hyderabad, most of the people go there hoping the Lord would help him in their U.S visa interviews. The Chilkur Balaji also known as Visa god or Visa Balaji ,how foolish !!!!
Did you sincerely pray even a single day without being selfish and with the only motive to see him . Do that for a couple of days I am pretty sure you would see him.
3) Does he look similar to idol I see ?
Now this is quite an interesting question. Let us start with why we have idol worship or a matter different religions. The reply would be to appease human taste. I have always seen young females quiet uncomfortable to drape a saree, Instead they feel quite comfortable to wear a jeans or something western.
I asked a friend of mine from Pune, “Why do you always dress up in saree? ”, Her reply was “I am comfortable in this”.
Similarly you start to love whatever you like or be comfortable with . Everything has a reason behind it. I adore the Lord’s idol with flowers and dhoop ,because it looks so beautiful. Beauty is likeable and liking is loving and loving is reaching him. He guises the way you want to see him.
4) Why it is so tough to see him ?
This is a bad question. How long would it take for you reach Prime Minister of India and have a word with him that too in personal . Unless you are related , it is going to take months and months , that too after detailed briefing and after a lot of approvals. Now GOD is the prime Head of the whole universe and he is entire supreme . Now it is not tough to guess how many tests you need to clear off before you talk in person.
One day of visiting temple , or being on fast or giving hundred rupees to beggar at cross roads will not make you to see him at the very moment.
5) Fear of God
GOD never said through any of his scriptures or holy books , you only worship me and forget the rest , I will write the exam for you and make sure you clear it off. He always said do your karma and leave the result to him. One who does not do his Karma worships GOD and later blames him for the ill result . GOD is the not like a villain on silver screen who vows to take revenge. So if you are not on a fast he will never curse you. And remember do not blame him, if you intake excess calories and get fat.
6) Belief
This is the most important and crucial of all. It is belief and confidence that works out wonders. As long as you don’t believe, even if GOD sits next to you , you will never accept he is GOD, until and unless he becomes a conjurer to show cheap tricks. If you are not believing it is not worth the effort. Once Swami Vivekananda asked Ramakrishna Paramahamsa “Does GOD exist ?”. Ramakrishna Paramahamsa replied “Yes, believe me and I will show you the path to GOD”. Under guidance of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa ,Vivekananda got what he sought.
7) How to reach him ?
Simple answer. Do your karma and follow the dharma. Every religion and every holy book mentions this. If you do and follow both strictly trust me you would attain Godliness.
8) The so called holy book are just stories
No they are not just stories. It is because of your perception you feel they are stories , They are morals and guidelines for us. Read them the way they meant, and never mean them the way you want. It has gone bad these days to such an extent that involving Lord Krishna in living relationships.
9) Instances I felt that he is always with me
Umpteen instances , I can almost feel him daily in one or the other aspect. Even you would have them. The Lord looks at everyone in the same view irrespective of your religion, caste, creed , sex and even atheist or theist. He is never biased.
The day you have complete belief in him you will feel he is close friend to you. You would start to talk to him instead of praying in a very casual manner and even blame him for not showing up. One example for this is Lord Venkestwara playing dice game with Sri Hathiram Bhavaji.
