IS GOD WEAK? WHY DOES HE ALLOW GOOD PEOPLE TO SUFFER?

Hello readers. Today’s blog is a small “on the spot” debate which I presented in college in my first year. Please read and do comment if you like it and IF want to give some suggestions. I apologize for any mistakes in my writing.

IS GOD WEAK? WHY DOES HE ALLOW GOOD PEOPLE TO SUFFER?

Before embarking on this question I would like to ask you – who is God? Whether God exists? What is the meaning of God?  How this name emerged?

In oxford dictionary the meaning of God is given as “the creator” & “the supreme ruler of the universe or a superpower” or “a spirit”.

By this meaning can we arrive at a conclusion that “George W Bush is a supreme human being or Sonia Gandhi is a supreme human being?

If we take into consideration the spirit is Superman God? Spiderman God? Baba Ramdev God, Amritanandamayi God?

I would firmly say NO!

By this meaning I don’t find anybody as the supreme creator or ruler. However I would like to take you to the ancient times from where the worship of god began.

According to the archaeological evidences as well as the linguistic studies the Aryans were the forerunners in the worship of god. They believed in trinity i.e. today’s Bhrama-the creator, Vishnu-the preserver, Maheshwara- the destroyer (according to Hindu mythology). Their chief adoration was the sun. In the infancy of civilisation to them the sun was not a mere luminary but a creator, ruler, preserver and saviour of their world as they knew it.

It is very hard for a man at the present day to realise the feeling with which the first developers on earth looked upon the sun. Put yourself in their shoes for just a minute. Think of a man at the dawn time; was not the sunrise to him the first wonder? Was it not to him the first revelation, the first beginning of all trust, of all religion?

From the Aryan’s I now take you to another world of thoughts. God gives us immense ways of realising him. Why can’t we think of our own mother as the manifestation of god because she is the creator of life which is scientifically true?

Sacrifice is the epitome of an ancient thought process encapsulated in the Vedas. For example there are poeple who gave complete service to the mankind- like Jesus Christ, Prophet Mohammed, Gautama Buddha, Mahatma Gandhi and Mother Teresa. 

Our universe is a combination of good and bad. Good means god and bad means devil.

If you take the path of good you reach the God and if you take the path of the bad you reach the devil.

The path to god is hardship and sacrifice. Only through hardship you can achieve your goal.

If you define god, it is not unitary. It is a combination of many forced as in universe. Everything in this universe is formed combining two or more elements. Hence god is not unitary.

If we go further in the engineering terms even an atom is formed of protons, electrons and neutron, which states that god is the inner energy of the subconscious mind.

Therefore I would like to conclude by saying that it is not god who is weak and gives the suffering to the good, but it is we, and everything is in our hand to decide the good and bad.

As Yajur Veda depicts:

“May my life, each breathe the eyes, the ears, the speech, the mind, the soul and all acts and the deeds are of service to mankind.”

Hence according to me god is not weak!

Thank you!!!!
