Our Rishis wish


The Rishis wanted all the persons who have taken birth in this world to realize the real state in which they have taken this human body and “while in this body they should reap the fruits of taking birth” in this world as men and women.
 
For this they have prescribed several ways, methods and procedures to be followed by us. But some people have altered them to their benefit so that they can make money out of it.
1.They have created so many religions, rites to be followed, procedures to perform puja or worship
2.which should be done only by a certain class of people
3.and no one else should directly approach the deities in the temples to do puja.
 
This class has been styled as a privileged class and they should be paid for the puja we do to God through them. Thus they have made a way for them and their relations to earn their livelihood at the expense of the lay man and fooling him.
 
This has been going on from a very long time. How this affects our thoughts is not taken into account by them.
 
What have we gained in creating so many religions…? We have only divided the power of God among the various religions; they cannot divide it and it is a common property of all.
 
The kings who ruled the country in those days made some ministers and other ranks under them, all of them in the various grades to carry out the orders and wishes of those kings “which have resulted in so many religions and castes…”
1.When God created the human race, he did it in a uniform way without any religion or castes high and low.
2.He did it as a whole mankind not dividing them into different religions and castes.
 
These religions and castes have been “made by man to suit his conveniences” so that he and his families can live comfortably.
1.This has left the entire human race in a confused state as we are now
2.going room to so many questions.
 
There are very few who realize that all human beings belong to one religion and one race. In whichever way we teach them a few only realize the fact.
 
People have ill-will against others, their hearts burn when they see others living more happily than them and live for the praise of others.
 
They should realize that a man’s state depends upon the breath that he takes and his thoughts and live meditating upon God.
1.Such people can surely become pure and reach a high state.
2.We can know from our meditation the changes made in our body and feeling by every breath that we take.
 
We should not become a slave of the religion, caste and the formalities but direct our thoughts and breath towards God.
