Mud and Gold Are Same for God
“God is invisible and therefore how can I believe His existence?”, asks some people. When you throw up a stone it invariably falls back to the ground. It is due to the gravitation of earth. It is not visible to the eye. Can you, therefore, say that there is no gravitation at all! Similarly, God’s presence is invisible, but understandable. We read about so many materials in an encyclopedia or a dictionary. We believe all that, but we don’t accept God’s presence. In fact, this is a simple knowledge. But people are confused in their ignorance. There is no humanity without divinity. Humanism has a meaning only when divinity is recognised. Otherwise, it is a sheer waste. On one day, a idol was completely decorated with gold jewellery. But the same night all the jewellery was stolen. Immediately after noticing this in the morning, the priest reported to . heard this and could not control himself. He turned to ’s idol and said, “, you are shameless. You are unable to protect the jewellery that was on your own body. Then how can you protect the world?” heard this scolding and said, “Nonsense! Will protect the gold that is equal to mud? It may be gold in your view. In God’s view, it is mud. You brought this jewellery and so it is your responsibility to protect it”. It is a great mistake to expect that God should protect us on all counts. We must consider worldly things as trivial and must strive to realise the eternal principle of truth.
