FOREWORD:

"I know my thoughts are different from most of you who are reading this blog... So pardon me if it hurts your sentiments in anyway, because, it is not my intention... Well I would still request you, to not shut your mind completely and to think honestly, with out bias, or preconceived notions about what I have written and I am sure you will understand every word that I have written..." - ZaThinker

This space is dedicated to all the great people I have met or seen in my life and who have taught me everything that I know about life today....

From the paralyzed and immobilized beggar snailing flat on the dirty market street, picking up grains of rice with his tongue that was splattered on the floor by some ungrateful homo sapien who had too much, to the richest guy I have seen, who lives and dines like a King but is yet not satisfied in his life, From the rescued baby girl (I wish to adopt when i am more able or at least sponsor her in some way) at Missionaries of Charity who would never stopped being happy (talking to herself, singing songs and dancing) despite being blind, to the old women in the "Home for the Destitutes" who's children left them to die, but who still have the love in their hearts and have not lost faith in humanity (they ask my mom about me every time they see her and pray for me always). From all the strangers who hurt me or tried to harm me in some way or the other to the Women in my life who are the only ones who could come the closest to me physically, mentally and spiritually and so were able to hurt me worse than a stranger could.

LIFE TEACHES ALL: AND THE SMART ARE THOSE WHO LEARN NOT FROM THEIR EXPERIENCES & MISTAKES BUT FROM THE EXPERIENCES &MISTAKES OF OTHERS.... BUT THE ONES TRULY BLESSED ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE SOME ONE SPECIAL IN THEIR LIVES, TO BREAK DOWN THE MYSTERY OF LIFE, SOLVE IT FOR THEM AND ENLIGHTEN THEM ON THE TRUTH OF LIFE THUS SAVING THEM THE FRUSTRATION & TRAUMA OF DECIPHERING IT THEMSELVES...

UNFORTUNATELY LIKE ME, NOT EVERY ONE OF US IS LUCKY TO HAVE ONE...

WHAT IS MORE UNFORTUNATE IS THAT, I HAVE LEARNT ALL THAT I AM SHARING WITH YOU, ONLY AFTER INEVITABLY DESTROYING MY LIFE IRREVERSIBLY, AND IN THE PROCESS UNINTENTIONALLY AND HELPLESSLY HURTING MANY DEAR ONES, NOT BECAUSE I WANTED TO, BUT BECAUSE I NEVER UNDERSTOOD MY SELF OR MY WEAKNESS AND THE CONCEPTS/PRINCIPLES OF LIFE WHEN I SHOULD HAVE...

SO IF IT IS RIGHT TO LEARN SKILLS ONLY FROM PEOPLE/GUIDES/TEACHERS WHO REALLY KNOW THOSE SKILLS, THEN IT ONLY MAKES SENSE TO LEARN ALL WHAT ONE SHOULD NEVER DO, FROM THE VERY PEOPLE/SINNERS LIKE ME WHO HAVE DONE WRONG/SINNED IN THEIR LIFE AND ARE REGRETTING TODAY!!!

THIS IS NOT A PLACE TO PASS JUDGMENTS ON ANYONE BUT FOR US ALL TO LEARN ABOUT LIFE - THE MISTAKES WE DO WITH OUT EVEN REALIZING. THE MENTAL BLOCKS WE HAVE ETC... - ZaThinker

What is a Prayer?

A prayer isn't exactly what most of us think it is or isn't just what it is described in a general English dictionary - "A reverent petition made to God, a god, or another object of worship. "

A prayer Should Not/Is Not/Does Not
  • About Asking or Begging for Blessings, Wishes, Personal Favours or Miracles. If we really trust and believe that God knows what is good for us and others in our lives we should blindly and wholeheartedly entrust our lives and the lives of the ones we love, to God. God knows all and will give us only that which is really good for us (We think we are smart and always know what is  good or bad for us, but the truth is we don't. So, many of the things we ignorantly and endlessly beg or demand from god through our prayers turn out to be the biggest mistake or the worst thing to happen in our life).
  • [Habitual] Uttering of words written by others that you do not relate to or do not feel.
  • Involve any sequence of bodily actions.
  • Governed by the clothes you are wearing.
  • Depend on the place you are while praying.
  • Shouting/Screaming or Crying in public.
  • or involve any of the meaningless man-made rituals followed in many of the Cults/Religions.
A prayer Is A/Should Be
At least a few moments/minutes/hours (Which may be immediately after a burst of Happiness [which are the moments when most humans forget the force] or Sorrow [which are the moments when most humans remember the force]) spent in silence and peace with a sincere and deep feeling of gratitude and thankfulness for all that the force has given and all that it will give us irrespective of whether it is happiness or extreme pain.

It Does Not/Should Not matter if you are
  • Lying down, standing or sitting.
  • Wearing any kind or specific clothes.
  • In a place of worship or alone in a room.
  • keeping your eyes open or closed.
In fact the most important thing that should be asked in a prayer is the strength to bear all the pain and for the presence of mind, never to misunderstand its (the Force's) rightful decisions (however painful or devastating it might seem) as we all know that we can never comprehend the ways of the force with a cup full of brains.

Spiritual Gurus / Godmen / Visionaries / Philosophers Today are Gods Tomorrow. Their Biographies Today are Religious Books Tomorrow...

Look All Around!!!,
Pretty obvious isnt it??
Today some even claim that their religious books
  • Fell from the Heavens.
  • Were written from Visions of "Great Prophets /Visionaries/Saints/Gurus/Sadus".
  • and many other man-made Stories.
The truth is that, all were written by normal men/women (mostly by men that's why most of them are creations of the typical Male Chauvinist Mind) some time or the other in the past.
As long as these books teach the "Wild Ones" some rules of life, of Peace and Love its good, But if these so called religious books teach the "Wild Ones" to wage war against each other in the name of religion, or to discriminate others in the name of Caste, Creed, Race, Color or Sex then These Books deserved to be Burnt till even their ashes are no longer existent and every last Preacher of such Crap be Banished for ever.

Fighting in the name of Religion, Caste, Creed, Race or something more stupid that one cannot imagine ??

Unfortunate !!! But true...

The Naive dont fail to intrigue me... The extents they can go to, to make a fool of themselves and a mockery of their Religion.

If a religion preachs violence it is not a religion but an evil doctrine that is doomed to destroy Humanity and everything that makes a balance in life.

Do we need a Religion?

In Reality A Human Being Does Not Need A Religion, He Only Needs To Be Spiritual To Live Life, To Be Happy, To Know Right From Wrong, Good From Bad.

BUT Unfortunately in today's world we do need a Religion...
As most of us unfortunately are "Weak" human beings who need some rules and guidelines to prevent us from becoming "The Wild Ones" who end up destroying the balance and sanctity of life.

Comprehending God with a Cupful of brains

Its impossible to comprehend the force with our limited human capabilities

The Humans/Animals/Elements we make into God

Its stupidity for "The Created" to be called "The Creator"/"God".

The existence of Animals and other Creations as Gods,  Godmen, and Godwomen are the best proof of the lack of common sense we humans have...

The God we make into a Human

Today millions of cults and religions practice baseless rituals and ceremonys ...

Worshiping Idols and Animals, Bathing them with milk and/or other substances.

Offering and sacrificing things to God, thinking that (like a Human), God would be pleased and happy with such offerings. Some offer bribes saying things like "Oh God, If you give me /do this I will dontate a million to charity", or blackmails etc.

When we look around us, many of the things that take place, would not take place at all, if all this universe was created by something that is Human like... For example:
  • The innocent good people and children who die in earthquakes and other natural calamities.
  • The poor and dying in Somalia.
  • The food cycle in which one living creature becomes the food for the other.
  • The jungle law in which only the fittest would survive.
  • etc.

For us mere Humans it seems to us as if there is so much pain, injustice, partiality etc. in all this, but that's the way God has created it and we must love and respect it the way it is, to be able to love and respect God.

Its time we realized that "GOD IS NOT HUMAN", it is not even some thing we can even remotely begin to understand....

The Force

The Force... That which creates... That which Maintains... That which Destroys... That Which/Who we call God...

People spend their entire lives looking for God's Existence and Presence, Many claim to know Him/Her/It... While many claim that He/She/It does not exist...

The way this device you are reading this blog on, or the clothes you wear, could not have appeared out of thin air, like wise its difficult to say/prove that anything/something/everything in this universe has appeared out of nothing!!! Thus the possibility of the Existence of God is more than the possibility of God not existing.

But the Honest Truth is No one can Comprehend anything so complicated and vast with a "Cup Full Of Brains"

What is Forceism?

[UPDATED]
Homo Sapiens do not need a Religion, to be Good Human Beings...
They just need to be Spiritual to live life, to understand Right from Wrong, Good from Bad.

But If a person still has to have a religion, then the belief system of Forceism (A word I coined after being inspired by the movie - Star Wars) could be a good option...  as it can be considered the religion of anyone who believes:
  • In the existence of the Force whom we call God but do not believe in naming the Force.
  • That the force exists in everything that exists in the universe, but still the creation does not become God. In Living things the force can be considered as the soul.
  • That No Creation (living [humans/animals] or non living [Stones/Nature/Elements]) of the Force can be God.
  • In living in harmony with Nature and in maintaining The Balance of Life.
  • In the whole universe as one world with no boundaries and differences.
  • In Living and Letting others Live.
  • In the importance of gathering the basic skills of life
    - to survive.
    - to earn a living.
    - to make relationships and maintain them.
    - needed for a couple to live a life together.
    - needed for a couple to look after their children.
In the religion of Forceism:
  • There are no Priests and Head priests - or any other power-loving people.
  • There are no man made Rituals or other naive Activities like Sacrificing, Dancing etc.
  • The believers do not wear accessories (Caps, Turbans) or put external symbols or marks on the body (Marking foreheads) to distinguish themselves from others as history has proved these kind of things only create more visual bias, hatred and differences in society.
