10-hour power cuts in Gurgaon, Millenium City

Reality of All Religion
Just because I do not go to a temple or a church. Just because I do not follow rituals, customs and traditions. Just because I do not pray regularly and beg for mercy to God. Does not make me an atheist and those who think so does not understand religion and God at all.
My relationship with God has nothing to do with temples and churches, those religious books and rules written ages ago which others are still blindly following it without understanding them.
Everything has been evolved... mankind, people, world... but not religion.
It has become stagnant and now it stinks. It needs to flow like a river to a sea of deep understanding, merge, evolve and grow.
I am not religious. I am spiritual. I do not pray to God and do confessions to make new mistakes. I speak to him as a friend. It’s a heart to heart understanding and do not feel the need of any temple to meet him. He lives with me in my heart as Krishna as Jesus as my own self.
I do not fear Him. I love Him. I speak to Him, fight, laugh, cry, enjoy with Him as a friend, I do not have any fear for hell and no greed for any heaven. Heaven is here now. I live for this moment with him.
