Chalo ek aur sawal pooch leti hoon mein:

As far as I think religion should be the tool for bringing peace in the world while now-a-days I think most of the debate/war/fights we have are based on religion. what do you think?

What a dangerous question you asked Manju Ji

I can write page after page only on this – but alas – time is a luxury for me now!

Let me try to articulate my thoughts in short.

Why blame only 'nowadays'? Fight over religious territory is eternal – from the story of Aryan invasion to Crusade.

IMO – Every religion born with a promise of social reformation, apart from the oldest religions like Jewish or Hinduism - those are kind of 'common law' – result of collective intelligence and generally accepted social norms. But sooner or later every religion gets far away from its goal and becomes the instrument of few people to rule over others. Over certain period of time every religion are destined become the opium of the society. Encased by only rituals, we forget the spirituality and actual purpose of the religion, which stop evolving and get chained by some outdated social norms. For example – the purpose of castes in Hinduism was to implement a division of job scopes, without schooling system the best way to transfer the knowledge was to by 'home schooling' - generation to generation passing on the explicit and tacit knowledge. See now what it became!! Or look at the multiple marriages endorsed by Islam – it was only to revive a war ridden society with disproportionate male and female ratio! How that's applicable to today's society?

hello jaya. if that's te case that I know all of it, then as you said jaane do, and will add to it 'Jo hota hai ache ke liye hota hai' many times we can't see too far & we start wondering why it happened to me. So we should always have faith on ourselves & god, just do good & don't worry after that.

arre meine bhashan sa de diya kya jaya? sorry!!!, par rok nahin apne aap ko kya karoon mein???

Thanks di - faith is one thing that I never lose...😊 Also I believe - what goes around comes around, so if something is happening, there is a reason to it and we need to take it in the right spirit... 😊

iPod and Camera 😆 Well - no wonder Pagla Jogai 😉😛😃

Thanks a lot first to answer it anol da.

I totally agree on the part I highlighted. I think we keep just focus on rituals & forget sprituality part of it. I think every religion say that we should take care of each other & not to hurt others etc etc.we start from my religion says this & your this & so on, so start with fighting. I agree we like to do some ritual our own religious way & that's fine. We may have disagreements within the way things are said but if we can just focus on basics of it, i.e. 'Jiyo aur Jeene Do' may be many problems may be resolved.

Very good answer Anol da. I knew this question is dangerous to ask but I knew you could handle it & was curious to see your view about it.

👏

I can go on and on … but it's not the time and place Manju ji – I'll have a separate discussion on this topic with you later – another 'to do' for me apart from the translations! 😊

Mera beta mujhse kahe to mein jaroor samjhongi, kyonki jati hoon use apne friends chahiyen par phir bhi itni to umeed jaroor rakhongi jab mujhe uski jaroorat hai tab woh mere paas ho chahe use apne friends chod kar hee ana pade us samay.
