Weekly Musings : Week 9 Faith is God and Not Religion


Week 9: Faith is God & Not Religion
 
Our daily routines apart from the regular tests, medications, doctor visits and other aspects one important activity is praying. We had so many well wishers both directly as well as those who knew our dear friends and relatives who have been praying for Manas speedy recovery. Be it someone asking to chant a hymn or sholka or light a candle in a church or going to a dargah or just praying for his well beings it has been very over whelming and makes us extremely grateful. In todays polarized world when we pray to God, it is all about the faith that we have in someone beyond us and this power is our God. It is not religion that is God but the faith that we have in different forms, shapes, beliefs and actions that takes form of God and just like what my father in law said in Tamil : “ Nammibeke da Kadaval “ which literally means Faith is God.
