Satanic v/s ...


Innumerable epics, so many religions, paths leading the way to heaven, teaching us right from wrong, telling us to live, love, celebrate - not kill, grieve and hate.

So much hype around God, around this religious Guru and that - trying to convince us that He is almighty.
Yet…in each one of us Satan lives…more certainly than God does

Every time we talk of good, it is in relation to evil. We cannot seem to exorcise him -from ourselves, from our society. He wins every time ..reinvents himself. Sometimes I wonder if he created God or we created God to deal with him. He manifests in each one of us, in everything we feel and do. Sorrow, hatred, envy, fear, destruction, war. ....

...and where is God? Just in our minds? And if He is in our minds, why aren’t all our thoughts divine, Godly, Kind? Why do we spend our entire lives trying to find Him, if we are already part of Him?

Why is Satan so easily a part of us? We have sorely missed God sometimes, but Satan never left us…He’s around us, within us…omnipresent. You can find him everywhere, smug and smirking. No meditation, no mantras, nothing. He seems to exist independant of it all.
I think about it sometimes and shudder. Maybe it is only he that can rescue us...free our souls, leave us pure again. Should we be worshipping him instead? Praying, pleading with him, to just let us be?

Where there is good, there is evil - law of nature.
The mistake is classifying 'god' as 'good' and satan as 'evil'.
Idea is not to worship the good or the bad guy, but to elevate oneself above both, not to worhip Satan or God, but to make both irrelevant.

You're trying to throw the oldest racket in the world out of business Vaibhav. Careful..;))

hmmm, i am afraid if i would say something there would be a lot of people out there to disagree with me, but i would simply suggest you to consult someone who can answer all your questions so that the confusions in your mind may vanish and your heart attains peace :)
