Blind Faith

Well! I want to know that wht u ppl think abt having blind faith on somebody..............

Shud we have it.....Or not?
It exist or not?
Whtz itz importance.........?
It works some times or not?
Shud we take risk in our life?
etc etc

we have to take risk in our lives but its depend upon our luck

Wel if u come 2 fink of it we believe in God coz of da great tings he has done 4 us.

Lifes other name is Risks, Every1 in life has 2 take a risk of some kind!!! 😕

yea...we should have faith n ppl...but we should trust ourselves waay b4 we trust other ppl and it also dependz on how wll u know the person n wat their personality is like and stuff

It is dangerous to have complete BLIND faith..

Let me tell u .. having a trust and having a blind faith share a very thin line between them... Sometimes wht people seem to be may not be the exact persons as we see them, CONFUSED?? Ok .. in simple way.. some people portray to be good, loyal, friendly, dependable...... blah blah.. but if trusted blindly they might cause u harm ... we can't really know wht is the real motive behind such actions.. yes i know there may be many sincere and loyal people out there.. but b4 putting urself into any kind of risk.. its better to try to see the real person with his real motive..😊

Of course even people belonging to well known religions have blind faiths. There is a difference between believeing in the Ultimate truth- GOd, or believing in rituals or do things under his name. When the religion is fresh, people actually have a Guru or a mentor, or a guide in front of them. Thsoe people must have been very blessed who were born in the times of Mohammad, Budda, Krishna, Jesus, Guru Nanak, and Kabir ji. They actually got to serve them and had the first hand experience of their divine Bani, but as soon as these profits were gone, people got lost again in mere rituals. Doesn't matter how many times you go visit certain places or how many times you recite a holy name..what difference does it make? If I prey three times a day or you prey 4 times a day...how is it making a difference? The ritual itself of praying numerous times a day is not changing your life, it's your mind or thoughts at that time that matters. If you are only doing it because you have been taught or instructed to do so, the act itself becomes a ritual.

Many of the holy books were not even complied in the living period of these profits. I am pretty sure the thoughts of the profits are there, but average human priests, pandit, and Mullah got to add their own ideas or norms as well. It happened so many years ago that you can't even point finger at anyone. May be the thought behind was good, but as the time went by, people developed their own versions.

Well DF, very respectfully I would like to tell u that the case is different with Islam according to my knowledge. It is written in the Holy Quran that Allah has taken the responsibility of the preservation of The Holy Quran that in its Original script, not a Single Word will change till the end of this world. To prove that scholars from Islam And various religions even have searched and compared the originals scripts from earlier times written by different people in different continents to those of the current times. They found that not even a single word is altered through time. Those old written scripts are placed in different museums for everyone to see or to have a research on them.

Yes i agree here that its Interpretations may differ from person to person. Every person may interpret Quran differently while reading. So it is very logical in this manner. 😊

Ok now abt different rituals and customs of any religion which people follow.. well if they do it for their own belief then its good. They may see that a way to connect to their religion and GOD, it seems ok to me. Other people may connect through a heart-to-heart connection with their religion so its their belief. If a religion asks for certain obligations to be performed and someone does that or not, then it becomes a personal choice.. 😊

(P.S. I didn't think that this could be a religious topic...i just saw the it in relationship perspective. ..Good point DF..👏)

MNMS, just out of curosity, let me ask you a question. Seriously, I want to learn. THis is what I know of the Origins of Holy Quran

"Muslims believe the angel Gabriel revealed the Quran to the Prophet Muhammad a little at a time. The revelations began about A.D. 610 and continued until Muhammad's death in 632. Muhammad's followers, who wrote down the revelations, collected them into the book that is now known as the Quran. The standard text of the Quran was formed during the reign of Caliph Uthman, who ruled from 644 to 656. Muslims consider the Quran to be the words of God Himself, and in no sense the composition of Muhammad. They believe that the earthly book, bound between covers, is a copy of an eternal book that is kept in heaven."

Quran is written by human hands- by profit Mohammad's followers. I truly believe that Profit Mohammad once roamed the earth just like Lord Krishan, Guru Nanak, profit Jesus and spread message of GOd, but I refuse to believe that he was okay with men having 4 wives or women wearing Burkas or promise of 72 virgins after life...at this low level thinking, it becomes more of personal need. Someone really tried to impose their social norms on other people. Some one messed up with his teachings...someone used his name to write what they thought was right. How do people buy the story of 72 or whatever amount of virgins? Of course nothing has changed for 1000 of years..because people have bought into this.

I apologize MNMS, if I offend you. I want to learn. Please if you have a better explanation, tell me..
