As I was writing a thread on life and spirituality, the article about bhakthi-vairagya-njana would be very helpful in that thread. So as I said, I added an article about bhakthi and vairagya in

Dear Sridhar,

Wonderfully told.Im touched.

I believe in God as much as u do, but with a slight difference. My God has no face, no temple, nothing.

As everyone else I consider myself very intelligent, and smart.But I too am stumped sometimes with some tricky situations which the best of my brains cant solve.

A problem that I cant mention here, but will tell u personally when I meet u, I was in a big spot of bother.I sat down to pray one day, and put God 6 dicey questions, and told him that if u are God, then solve these, and I gave him a time limit of a few months.

The situations were horrible, and u know what.He did all of them, the impossible.Now whenever I sit I just thank him for everything.

And even now there do come such situations, money not being one of them, I am always happy and contented with what I have, but some problems that we cant seem to solve.

And he is so kind , for reasons known to him he obliges me always.

And the worst part is, I have never given him a rupee, don’t give anything to beggars, don’t go to temples, and don’t celebrate any God’s birthday.And yet he is so kind to me.


I feel God is with me, inside me, and he is very kind.And even now he has some work to do for me, and I am sure I will get my answers very soon.

Thanks for the lovely piece, u are one hell of a writer, u bring out tears from my eyes, very few people can manage that from me, and u make me think.

Thanks buddy, all the best.Regards.kamal

Dear Kamal,
After seeing your fb, I read the whole piece once again. You made me think of the Creator once more and shed tears for him.
I was moved by the way you put teasers to God and cried when I knew how he solved them in His own way.
He dispenses Grace constantly. When we are able to understand that it's happiness. Our failure to understand that is our sorrow.

Thanks for the lovely piece, u are one hell of a writer, u bring out tears from my eyes, very few people can manage that from me, and u make me think.

Thanks buddy, all the best.Regards.kamal

If Chithra did the indexing it was you who brought out second and subsequent editions of all my previous posts. Thanks for all that, Kamal. When you have your drinks today, and when you feel totally relaxed and happy please do think of me. For to live in a happy and content man's thought is equivalent to living in the holiest of temples in this world.
love,

Dear Sridhar..

A wonderful post which left me speechless tears rolling !!!

You have so well narrated the incidents that happenend between you and God..

I have so many like this in my life Sri...

I and my sister in our childhood..when watching "Oliyum Oliyum " If the power suddenly goes off.. we start praying and also commading GOD that power should be back before we count ten... We were just 10 and 7 years...My mom use to scold us for ordering GOD :) But you know...Whenever we do this the power comes back before we count 10 ..I cannot forget that incident till date:)

I was terribly upset when I missed my Medical college seat by 0.50 marks... Everybody in my family knew that Im basically scared and less tolerable girl.Medicine will not be a apt proffession for me.. but I was just crazy thinking about the white coat,stetch,... all things.. I really dont know for how many months I cried for not getting medicine...

But now God has blessed me with a good and peaceful life ..I dont know whether i would have been like this if i have done medicine also ..:) God knows what to do....

Even couple of months before.... God gave a great trauma for my sister's family ,What else we can do other than falling under her feet...

She might be the happiest person in the world now....God has solved everything peacfully....

I can add on like this Better I 'll stop here...I have experienced a lot like this and I'm Greatful to god each moment of my life !!!

I and my family dont ask LORD anything..we always thank her for what all she has blessed us....I ll stop with this....I ll go on writing about the love I have on her and the blessings she had showered on me :)

Thankyou very much for this post Sridhar !!

Dear Brindha,

It is nice to see you in this long forgotten forum. God is playful. He is loving. He loves to play games with us.

Only yesterday my teacher told me that to attain God there are no other means. You cannot have a means other than God to reach Her. SHE is the journey, and SHE is the way. SHE is the means and SHE is the end.

Whatever you say about God, or for that matter, anybody says about God, sends shivers to me. SHE is in eternal love with us. And we realise that love only once in a blue moon when the world goes our way.

Brindha, since you are so much interested in God, I'll give you a simple homework.
There was this thread "What To Pray For" which was started by a lady called Puja. I don't know where she is.

Please search that thread and read what we all have written there.
And you will be surprised to know that my responses in that thread became a starting point of my book on God and Religion which after two years of waiting is going to see the light of the world in a few months.
Thanks Brindha for making me relive the time I wrote this thread.
love,
