Question better answered

Looking up at the sky today, I began to wonder like every intelligent person like me does, who do I live? Why was I born? Why do I add extra burden to mother earth?

Hasn’t she got enough to bear already? Why? Why?

Human race as many may conceive and that which I strongly disbelieve isn’t the most intelligent of the races that wander on this planet. So what sets us apart? Why do we have to live from being an infant cuddled by mother to the long journey to the grave. So many things that set life right, set it wrongs, dramatic changes, happiness, sorrow and the never ending desire.

Why does one come to earth and why does one leave it and dominate the very mother exploiting her resources? Will someone answer me?

Finding no takers, alas I turn to God himself. The omni potent,omni present savior was looking at me with the same benevolent expression that he has towards every being in earth, the same twinkle in his blue eyes and the same smile which says I know it all my child.

Tongue tied, I grope for words and out they came atlast.

“Whats the happiness of being born?”

God gave me a birth, a life…

“Whats the happiness behind being with a woman?”

God made me marry.

“Whats the happiness of death, the relief after worldly life?”

God took my life away.

Little surprised, I turned towards him and asked

“If experience is the essence of life, God why are you here?”

God came very close to me, with out any change in this handsome face he said

“I am that experience my child”……..

p.s : This post was inspired by a tamil extract some time ago it goes here…

பிறப்பில்  வருவது யாதென கேட்டேன்

பிறந்து பாரென இறைவன் பணித்தான்
இறப்பில் வருவது யாதென கேட்டேன்

இறந்து பாரென இறைவன் பணித்தான்
மனையாள் சுகமெனில் யாதென கேட்டேன்

மணந்து பாரென இறைவன் பணித்தான்
அனுபவித்து அறிவது தான் வாழ்வெனில்

ஆண்டவனே நீ ஏன் எனக் கேட்டேன்

ஆண்டவன் சற்றே அருகல் வந்து

அனுபவம் என்பதே நான்தான் என்றான்!
