There is no GOD

You will be wondering about this title, but this is literally true. In actual there is no GOD and even if exist is created by us human only, so it can't be supernatural, It is similar to like we human created computer, AI etc, but anything we create it will be always less than us, though we fantasia about that it will be a super power ( that is why we use to create sci-fi movies when computer AI starting thinking own its won and destroy human race).

If there is any super natural power exists, then why there is so much chaos, betrayal, corruption, injustice, poverty etc in this world. If there is some father/mother of human kind can they see their own children are back stabbing to each other ( being a parents can you see among your children, even whatever is their act, you will not reward/punish/harm a deed of their act).

All these temple,church etc, we created to so that we can expect a reward/punishment for our act either within our life or after life, but imagine there is no human exist, will there be a god to take care of trees,animals, sea lives etc or in reality do they even need to be taken care, It is not like we human or God is taking care of them, they are living own their own and dying own their own, not even praying to God , not even bothering about their acts etc. and in turn expecting any reward/punishment. But we human are always looking forward to God to do justice in our life, why?

It is because we human are ourself are GOD, this is another funny/astonishing fundamental, if you now put this in context of one of the major teaching of our spiritual gurus (live in present, forget about past or future, e.g. Echart Tolle book "Power of Now"). Since there is no GOD, so there is no destiny ( or man create his own destiny) again due to if you your future is arrive from your present so whatever you do in present, it will make your future and whatever you did in your past is become your present(concept of Karma), so now who is controlling your destiny, you yourself, there is no GOD is controlling, or one can say you yourself is GOD as you are the one who is controlling your own destiny.

But then another beautiful concept, if we are GOD, why didn't we have any supernatural power, again because GOD never ever have any supernatural power ( it is our fantasy about GOD that give him/her supernatural power, like we see in sci-fi movies related to computer AI) and yes there are some power but again within a limit of human being, like as we all know we hardly use 10% of our brain and if anyone develop (by accident) to use more than that and get some extra ordinary ability ( which we call supernatural power), we attribute that as GOD gifted power. So any given point of time GOD will never ever have any extra power which we human can't have, and what we did is accumulate all this fragmented power of individuals and attribute to one entity and called as GOD.

You even experience this in your own life many time, when you go to temple, church etc, and ask something to GOD, sometime it get fulfilled , sometime it didn't get fulfill and when it get fulfill , you attribute that is due to the grace of god/miracle of GOD and when it didn't get fulfill, we say it must be our deed or there is something better is stored for us or it is not a right time for us. But think this as yourself as parents, if your kids come to you and ask something, sometime you fulfill, sometime you didn't, but in either case kid knows (many times indirectly) why it get fulfill or not. If GOD is like our father/mother, will he/she let you in dark to understand why your wish is get fulfilled or not. No since there is no GOD, that is why you didn't know why it get fulfill or not, In actual your wish is based on your present moment(sometime in favor or sometime is not in your favor) and due to that it either get fulfilled or not ( again POWER of NOW).

And now since centuries we live under this impression about GOD, it is not a easy concept to accept, Now GOD is a hope, goal in our life and without any hope or goal we all of sudden become like a orphan, nowhere to go, no commandment, no rule, no obligation, and think of much bigger chaos in society and what will happen to our priest, minister, temples, churches etc? What will happen to peace we use to get when visiting special sacred place like temple,churches.

Actually this temple, priest, peace etc, is 50% human created for their own selfish reason and 50% is due to again "POWER of NOW", the moment you stop running from your daily chores and sit either quietly or meditate or chant some mantra you feel peace, but it is same as watching sports or movie, only thing sport/movies can induce emotions in you, while meditation etc, won't, but in either case you are deviated from your day to day chores and tension created by that chores. And since this temple, peace, silent sitting, mediation don't induce emotions and get you some time without emotions, it pamper our ego too , that we are doing some virtuous act.
