Honestly....Religion doesn't play a role in my personal happiness ...Its not that i dont believe in god...I really do!!But my relationship with God is purely personal. I do communicate with god in my own personal way. I rarely light the lamp or do the pooja...

Angel, exactly my view and perception ... my thoughts would essentially be all that you've said... and reading your thoughts , was speaking my thoughts aloud ...😊 so glad and surprised, there are more who think similar and yeah jus as you mentioned, my relationship with god , is more personal and in a way I feel I connect to god. Lighting a lamp and saying prayers for me does not contribute to communicating with god, but with due respect I do believe such regime , does bring out a certain dsicipline, that many follow!

Mythili , nice topic, will chip in my thoughts on your questions in afew clock ticks!

😊 wellcome to paranormal/spirituality forum mythili.

What is the concept of GOD according to you?
---i beleive that god is only n only 1[one]. but in anciEnt times he took many forms for their deevotees.like for hindus-shri ram,krishna,shiv shanksr,shri hari...,for christians--jeesus christ,for muslims-allah..etc etc. god is a SUPER-NATURAL POWER.

Ekam sataha vipraha bahudha vadanti means "The truth is One, but different Sages call it by Different Names" 😊</></>

Is religion necessary to know /feel GOD?
---no,religion is not necessary.if real DEVOTION is there in our heart ,then we start praying god in any form,no particular form or religion is needed.

Nice reply👏

If necessary what's the role of religion in the persuit of truth?
---no religion ever taught to lie n kill ppl.n the motive of religion is to make the man true,helpful,n to make man always walk on the right path of HUMANITY N TRUTH. COZ -truth never hides.n thats really the fact.u all also may have experienced this in ur life that its really tough or say IMPOSSIBLE TO HIDE THE TRUTH.

Ok😊Wellsaid!!

what is spirituality and philosophy? Are they same?
Name a good book you read/want to read on spirituality?
SPIRITUALITY means a devotion to god with the true heart n to do all the good karms[good work]
PHILOSOPHY means your thoughts ,your beleifs about spirituality n nature rules n god etc etc.

i read many books like-- RAMAYAN, BAHGWAD GITA, PURANS.
but i read them not fully,i mean i read but incompletely,so defi,i wud like to read them FULLY N COMPLETELY.
n i also follow the principles n good thing that i learn from them,in my real life.

Nice to know your views😊

What is the concept of GOD according to you? – The inexplicable force that remains the unknown reason behind all that is known to mankind! Is religion necessary to know /feel GOD? Nope, I believe it ain't necessary to know, but an understanding of own self is what leads you to comprehend this inexplicable force we believe to be GOD, that I believe exists in us as what we reckon "Sixth sense" that guides us… If necessary what's the role of religion in the persuit of truth? From what I have understood and what we have been told abt different religions, understanding and pursuit of truth begins from self. One needs to understand ones own self to be able to perceive and respond and relate and understand all that is around, all that is to be believed ,was created by God! Religion as the wise say is set of principles that allows one to devote time to being with God , which is essentially about understand all that is around us and that is where I believe God exists, in all that he has created. If we believe that every creation of ours has a part of us in it , be it a painting or a tune or a book, then God exists in all that he has created, including us ! Pursuit of the truth, of rather I prefer to call it , the journey to understanding begins from our ownselves!
1. what is spirituality and philosophy? Are they same? Nope I believe they are different.

Spirituality is what is to be believed as the understanding of the untodate inxplicable force and being called God! The feeling of wanting to understand and be a part of the spiritual being God.

Philosophy , more seems to me a perception of life, of how to lead a life, to seek what has eluded many, Happiness. Everyone has a different philosophy or so I believe , a diff perception towards life, towards , this gift of life and is individuality.

1. Name a good book you read/want to read on spirituality? Have read none and do no wish to. Not to sound arrogant , but believing that God guides us all by being a part of us, I believe , he shall show me the right way and guide me.

Nice post Mythili and yeah , I did chip in my thoughts tad bit late, but I wanted to and I did finally! 😊
