In my previous post I had written ‘God neither helps us nor betrays us.He remains neutral.
Now I am telling God can save you! He can help you!!
It is possible because of your Faith,belief and trust in God. Might sound cliche to you,but it really does.
All religious texts stress the importance of FAITH.
According to the Bible, faith is your belief in the one, true God without actually seeing Him.
‘Therefore I tell you,whatever you ask for in prayers, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.' MARK 11 :24.
The Qur`an states by remembering God, Faith can grow,and that nothing in this world should be dearer to a true believer than faith. Vedas praises faith, belief and dedication. Swami Chinmayananda has summarized it ‘Faith is to believe what you do not see, The reward of faith is to see what you believed.'
Hence all religious texts reflects the importance of faith and belief in God to achieve your goals.
All theists say ‘we have faith in God, in God we trust. We believe our God.’ Yes.. if they have 100% faith and belief in what they say they are rewarded with their wishes. But the question is do they have hundred percent faith in God ? They say they believe hundred percent in God. They pray to God. But they don`t leave it to God alone.. they try different measures also to solve their problems.. I don`t say it is wrong. But it proves that it is very difficult to have hundred percent faith in God.
Faith and belief can give you Self Confidence and Will Power. There are numerous examples where in the incurable diseases have been cured by strong faith challenging the Medical Science. A skinny person can defeat a muscular guy in a fight if he strongly believes.
Here is a small story..
‘Chant my name crossing the river. You won`t drown..’ said the Master (Guru) to his disciple. The disciple just followed his Master`s words and walked through the flooding river chanting his Master`s name.
‘Oh! My name itself has so much of power. I might be a Godman’ wondered the Master. Chanting his own name the Master too tried to walk through the river. But alarmingly the Master drowned.
The essence of the story is - The disciple who believed his master`s words 100% created a miracle where as Master without having faith in himself got drowned.
Another example..
Master gives initiation to two of his desciple and asks them to chant the ‘manthra’ ten thousand times and he assures them they realize God by doing so..
Suppose one of the disciple has hundred percent faith and belief towards his Master, he is bound to realize God. Whereas another disciple`s conscious mind does not believe hundred percent of what master said, won`t be able to realize God.
The main intention of religious texts or Masters is to create hundred percent faith in the believers.
So faith can do wonders.. faith can do miracles.
But still I reiterate what I had written in previous post ‘God is Neutral.. He neither helps us nor betrays us.’
Then the question arises How faith in God can do miracles? Why the 'FAITH' in 'GOD' is the most powerful than other faiths? And how the faith succeeds only when it is 'GOD' and not in myself or others?
What is the logical answer for this? I will give you a detailed explanation of how this works in my next post.
