Man Made Religion Vs God Made Religion

Well so we should be living a man-made religion?.... hope you heard of the bomb blast in hyderabad, that killed only innocents. Following which there was a chaos in airport as someone sighted an abanded cellphone --gift of man-made religion.

How much ever we try to evade ourselves from addressing the root of the cause, we''ll never overcome the grave problems we have created all in search of greed-satisfaction.Everyone is fighting to satisfy their greed. The most dowtrodden is fighting to keep afloat and alive, the poor is fighting for a one meal for the day, the lower middle class is fighting to become middle class, the middle class wants to become upper middle class, rich is fighting for fame and the famous are trying all the means to stamp each other to be on the peak. Ultimately no one is happy. Tell me one person who is contended with what he has. We are trying to perfect materialism. This is where our civilzation is heading. And it is ought to fail !!!

How? Why ?

The difference between man-made and god-made religion is this.

With Man made religion, the happiness is relative (robber is happy but the robbed is in pain) and momentary. Hence the man ishighly stressed, mostly to satisfy his greed and partly to satisfy the greed of his near and dear ones. There is more and more anxiety, to over-fulfill the needs. We are hearing heart attacks at very young age like in 30s. By 45 the man has already accumulated 100 known and 200 unknown ailments for which his is prescribed double medicines, not all of which cure him, the doctor is simply doing ''trial-error'', using the patient like a guinea pig. And yes thehealth care industry is booming, wow it is creating jobs. The irony of this is - we are sucking our own blood.If we have enough, we want to save for future, there is so high insecurity. And there are insurance demons waiting to trap us. "Hum Apna gadda khud khodh rahe hain".

In Perfect Contrast, with Lord Krsna's/Vedic Prescribed way of life, provided it is followed AS IT IS, and not with a pinch of manipulation, will save human race from gross and subtle extinction. Why?Coz everyone earns to satisfy only basic necessities. As per the dharma, they will keep 50% of their earnings for the maintenance of family,donate 50% towards charity. All the activities they do are to SATISFY the Lord and not to satisfy their personal senses. The men, based on their ''Guna/Karma'' will perform various activities towards God realization. The Brahmana (Sato Guni) will perform duties prescribed to them. That is accumulating Bharhmajyana and teaching Brahmajnyana to all class of men. Learning how to worship the Supersoul and teaching how to please the Saupersoul to all class of men. They are requiredto strive in these activities hence they are given charity on which they maintain their livelyhood.


The Kshatriya (Rajo Guni) the warriors/administrators class will protect the Dharma by protecting the cows, women, brahmana and the shoodra.The Shoodra (Tamo Guni)are working class, they do farming, agriculture to feed the Brahmana and the Kshatriya.Here the Shoodra will strive to become a Kshatriya or a Brahmana with the help of Kshatriya and the Brahmana, the Kshatriya will strive to become Brahmanawith the help of Brahmanas. And the Brahmana will strive for God-realization of the self and all class of men/women. Ultimately there is perfect balance,as all the activities of every human irrespective of their class are centered around one common goal that is Mukthi/Self-God Realization/ Attaining Highest perfection.

Let me also point out that there is another class of men, they are called Chandalas, they do not like to belong to any of the above qualified classes and they are simply a burden/pain for humanity. The Rakshasas that you hear in the previous yugas were of this class. They were known for manipulating Vedic System to make way for their greed satisfaction. ----King Hiranyakashipu, father of Prahlaad was an good example as he manipulated the Vedic conjuction, made wrong use of power and made the Brahmanas to dectate/preach to his subjects that he himself was God, it is said that in the gurukula where Shri Prahlad studied, they were made to chant ''Om Namo Bhagavate Hiranyakashipaya Namaha''


Conclusion -

* All I can say is that the modern civilzation is taken over by the last 'unqualified' class of men.

* All we need to do is identify the lost/perfect Vedic system to know its TRUE beauty and value, then try to Learn and Teach the same.
