Fear -GOD of all things!
I came across the article about Physics, Work and God.I can say only this:
What is God? I have only surmised that anything that drives
fear into the heart of Man gets termed as God only until its
consequence is unknown.
Fire – Prior to mastering fire Man prayed knew Fire was God.
Once it was discovered how it could be created and controlled, it lost
its godliness and then the “God men” used it as a tool to drive fear
into the common man’s mind.
Lightning – Before electricity was mastered, it was retribution
from God to be struck by lightning. Now it is easily explained and is
no longer God.
In fact, so many discoveries have been made that Man no longer
fears many of the things that have been termed as God in History. Now,
with genetics, Man is closer to the creation of Life. But, till Man
discovers what it is that gives life to every one and starts life in
those cells… he will still be in awe .
Till mathematicians stop depending on the imaginary (root of
negative one) branch of mathematics to explain some phenomenon, that
undefined root remains God to them. They turn to it to classify the
absurd , it is the Fear of being found to be ignorant of something
that drives them to seek refuge behind the Imaginary .
Fear is the one emotion that can lead to a real touch with
the “One” or the “Source” . J Krishnamurti also put a tremendous
emphasis on the conquest towards the comprehension and conquest of
Fear. Like all the enlightened , he knew that to conquer Fear was the
only way Man could emerge from hiding behind Imaginary explanations.
Man still Fears a lot of things. God lives on – outside Man.
Once evey Fear is confronted and conquered… Will there be no God? No.
For then God will be identified from the Self and will be within and
not outside and then…?
God Knows!
