Denial or To Believe

The Idea: 
One of the greatest mysteries to all mankind is the divine existence. Sometimes some say its a convenient rationale, while some swear to have discovered Him. Sometimes we like to challenge ourselves and our beliefs and want to discover the truth on our own.

The Conclusion:
We all live by a belief system, our conclusion on our journey of discovering the Great One will more than likely always be the same as our beginning. 

Denial or To Believe

I’d like to look for Him…

I’d like to embark on a journey of discovery…

I want to investigate and be certain…

That He is not a mere invention.

Like all intense investigations…

My process too starts with assumptions.

It then moves on to following instincts…

Until I reach the point of deriving my deductions.

I see a whole trail of clues…

Pointing towards Him.

I am not sure yet though…

Is it a setup…or is it circumstantially true.

I sit back for a while and ponder,

Am I just being a rigid skeptic?

For even science lays down a hypothesis –

Then tallies the statistics,

Then proceeds with eliminations,

And if not enough evidence to prove otherwise,

Declares the hypothesis as a factual conclusion.

There are fewer reasons to deny His presence then not,

And more unexplained stories to be understood by His existence.

There are more miracles than we learn about in history

Which happen every moment without the applause.

I feel sometimes like the audience watching an act…

So cynical about the technicalities without even knowing the technique.

 Commenting & complaining about the plot…

Only to be surprised at the end.

But then I am back to my exploration…

I need to see Him to believe.

I realize that my investigation can also conclude…

Only when my act reaches its climax.

It is irrational to assume all the human interactions

Are nothing but coincidental.

It is sheer silly to look upon all creation

As nothing but incidental.

All is not just chaos…

All is not just evolution…

Everything is consequential…

Every life out there is the proof.

I throw my hands up and give up…

I bend my knees and conclude…

I join my hands and look up into nothing…

I know now…I cannot embark upon a journey of discovery.

To discover Him, I need to understand Him…

And to do that…I need to Believe.

Identity Crisis

The Idea: 

We live in a society where there are so many different people,different personalities, different perspectives. We like to think of ourselves as individuals; we like to think that we make our own choices.

The Conclusion:

Life is rarely a matter of your individual and independent ideologies. Under these circumstances, identity really loses its meaning.

Identity Crisis

So many faces,

So many lives behind those faces.

So many emotions

So many motives  behind those emotions.

Boundaries....and constrictions

Is society spelt the right way?

Conformities and compliance

Is freedom spelt the right way?

Is there a real choice

Behind the paths we take up?

Is there a true goal

At the end of this journey?

Are we truly independent?

Are we truly making our own decisions?

Influences surround us....

Guilt always crowds us.

Integration and assimilation

Is identity spelt the right way?
