It's festive season everywhere in Maharashtra (I guess it would be through out India). The Muslims are celebrating Eid and the Hindus, Ganesh Chaturthi. Everyone is happy and enjoying the festive mood. The Hindus are praying Ganasha and the Muslims offering Namaz to Allah. I can see every single soul devoted to God and their faith in religion NOW is beyond imaginable levels.
Sometimes I do think about what every religion teach us. The answer which comes to my mind is that all religions teach us to pray God - the Almighty, who created the Universe. Apart from this, all religions also teach us about the existence of soul, the existence of God in all living beings, compassion and respect for everyone, humanity, morals and peace. And so as to stick to religion we celebrate the festivals. But does religion mean only to enjoy the festive seasons and make merry. Are we really following the religions and their teachings and adhere to it? If we would have followed God with real faith, understood the meaning of religion and their teachings in depth and adhere to it, the world would have altogether been a different place to live in. There would have been peace and prosperity. And what's worst is people are fighting on the name of religions.

And this thought puts before me a BIG question mark about God, Faith and peoples' Adherence to it.
