Social traditions may change but the God is one for all

Every person in this world wants progress and is making efforts in that direction. In his effort he has reached the moon and is even planning to settle there. He is busy in searching other planets also. He can now travel long distances in a short time. But his main problem which is sorrow. No achievement of the material world is capable to save him from sorrow and put an end to it from his life.
In the world, the seers of India were the first to find out a solution to this basic problem of mankind and scripted it in the form of scriptures to reach into the hands of every person. These scriptures are called 'Ved'.
After sometime some selfish so called scholars and academics, with a view to exploit and become popular in society tried to include social norms, conventions and traditions and thus perverted these holy scriptures. This gave rise to different groups and organisations, which is a bane for entire humanity. It compels every organisation and group to confine itself in narrow considerations of inferiority and superiority. The feeling of being the representative of society yields an unhealthy influence on organisations and they are threatened with dire consequences of violating the rules and principles of the organisation Thus they are kept enclosed in their fold like a flock of sheep. The result is open and apparent before mankind and every country is struggling how to face this problem.
At present there are different problems in every family and society created by the so-called leaders and representatives. Wrong leadership leads to degeneration of family, organisation and even of a sects, which makes man stand apart and aloof from reality. Several convictions and opinions which assume the form of parties and communal organisations are the result of this foul personal tendency of leadership, while the aim of every leader is the development and progress of the country. No one wants to destroy the country still we see different organisation standing up against each other. Why don't they all try to make progress together. Similarly the aim of all religions leaders is to achieve the supreme because without God there is no other means of deliverance and development of soul. Still the efforts to deviate and degenerate man with feelings of mutual differences of superiority and infiriority, hostilities atc are going on-every where.
The ancient seers and well meaning persons have proclaimed that unless man seeks God. All his achievements, power and position can not save man from sorrow and suffering. Realisation of God is the result of total absence of thoughts. No one has been able to attain God through any means without complete absence of thoughts, nor it is possible at anytime in future. Then where are these religious leaders of the communities leading the society?
To stop the advancing steps of anarchy and set all the countries struggling against this menace, human values are necessary. Religion is the only basis to uphold these human values. Righteous conduct is an effort to plant the seeds of divine attributes in heart. In this universe God is one, and so the dharm is also one. No religious (Dharmik) person so far where ever he is born on the face of earth is seen to take an inhuman step, because, religion keeps all human infirmities away from man.
By using religious nomenclature for social traditions, rites and rituals man has humiliated these great thinkers who have tried to give the message of love harmonious life to the entire mankind.
Those who tried to frighten people of assumed fears of hell and have imposed assumed principles on mankind; can such people be called the benefactors and well-wisher of humanity?
There is no haven or hell, and hundreds of satellites are revolving round the solar system. Had there been any heaven they would of found by now.
Lord Sri Krishna has said there are two categories of man (deities and demons) and has thus indicated that heaven or hell exists only on this earth. Therefore, it is a great sin to keep people entangled in imaginary principles.
There are hundreds of theories and principles in this world which lead to human degeneration and conflicts. The only principle which connects man with the supreme is the course of man's development.
Some people believe there is no rebirth. God delivers judgement about everyone on the day of Judgement, so the tombs are made. But they don not consider the other aspect that if the God has given birth then why did he differentiate between man and man? some is born fair while the other is born dark of complexion. Some is born fair while some other is born ugly, some is born healthy while the other is born sick, some other wealthy and the other poor and so on. What kind of God's dispensation of justice is this? and on what basis it was delivered? A soul is take new birth in different forms to suffer the consequences of precious births. On the Day of Judgement' the God pronounces his judgement of on those who are entombed. However, there are thousands who are lost in storm, and in wars. Who presides over their destiny. Each organisation or community has its own ways and means to live and protect it. God has nothing to do with such matters.
The tradition of entry into holy religious places and its restrictions on some particular persons and sections of society exposes, hateful and conservative thoughts or man. It is this tradition which has become a great and frequent cause of conflict and mutual hatred while God dwells in the heart of every individual. How can a person in who the God dwells, can be denied an approach to God. Sri Ram has given this right of worshiping of God to the entire mankind-
"Purush napunshak nari va, jeev charachar koy;
Sarv Bhav Bhaj, Kapat taj, mohi parampriya soy."
In this animate and inanimate world any one can be my loved one, Sri Krishna also endorsed the same saying-
"Mam hi parth vyapaschitya yeapi syu paapnoyajah;
striyo vaisyastatha shodrastapi yanti pram gatim."
A woman, a prostiture and an untouchable alt can be delivered and reach my celestial abode.
A fly sitting on filth of some untouchable flits and sits on an ideal in a temple or if is fall down in food still we don't become untouchable and remain holy, and God remains celestial.
It is really very unfortunate that people should believe and create such discriminations between man and man. A dog can enter a temple, a bird can build a nest in the temple, a dirty fly can flit over the idol but a human being can not enter the temple. what should we call such dispensation?
The holy Ganga which has the source in the feet of God, the Ganga which is held by Lord Shiva in his locks, is holy for us but an untouchable, a person belonging to schedule caste is considered profane. What sort of logic is this? What is to be blamed, the holy feet of God or the perverted intellect of man. Lord Shiva's minions include Ghosts and sprits, who always accompany him. But a man can not go inside his temple. Are the ghosts and spirits superior to human beings? when these ghost and evil spirits can not defile shiv how can a man do it? This is beyond reason, and understanding. In the same manner a man is caught in hundreds of perversions and is confused. We all need a course which could remove distance between God and man, and which can bring about an all-round development of man, where man is free from any fear.
