A nation gripped in tension, fear of some unforeseen event, a day before high court verdict on much awaited, overstretched and over hyped case of Ayodhya Ram Janmbhoomi title suite. Security forces were on high alert, Govts were appealing for peace and harmony and common man was extremely worried as the verdict would have been recipe for communal violence and unrest across the nation. Even though people of Ayodhya are tired of this whole exercise. But some organisation have fueled it just for their political agenda.
This one instance has challenged India's image of a secular nation. Even though we flaunt ourselves to be a secular nation, Tensions are raising high on an issue which decides which party will have right on a land which might be used later for building a Temple or a Mosque and people were not willing to share the place for last 60 years.. Some court also ordered that both Mandir and Masjid should not be in close proximity on disputed land but there should at least be a distance of 10 kms between them to avoid any kind of communal unrest.
If a nation can't have two religious structure in close proximity, how can it be called a Secular nation. Unfortunately i have to say that we are a religion frenzy nation, where it's very easy to instigate violence on the name of religion and God. There is no tolerance in their definition of religion. Religion has become a tool to divide people and I am 100% sure the Almighty watching over there would be very sad on this. People say GOD is everywhere and then they are fighting for a piece of land saying Ram was born on this particular piece of earth. They have restricted God's existence to a specific place. If their faith says HE was born in Ayodhya, then HIS existence is everywhere there and all across the universe. Why to fight for a specific place? GOD HIMSELF has no religion and it's We the most intelligent creature on earth who created religion and divided GOD.
As I always believed that Religion or Faith is just a medium to praise the Almighty and two religions might use different methods but ultimate Goal is same for all of them. This little difference is just like the difference we have in our work, behaviour, dressing sense, eating habits but eventually everyone wants a happy life. So, there can't be any difference in some one calling HIM Ram, Allah, Christ or anything else.. All are same. This divisive nature of religion has forced me to call religion a tool to divide GOD. And that's why a world free of Religion or people free of religious bias are needed to keep humanity in peace and harmony.
धर्मग्रन्थ सब जला चुकी है, जिसके अंतर की ज्वाला,
मंदिर, मसजिद, गिरिजे, सब को तोड़ चुका जो मतवाला,
पंडित, मोमिन, पादिरयों के फंदों को जो काट चुका,
कर सकती है आज उसी का स्वागत मेरी मधुशाला।
Please don't divide HIM and humanity on HIS name. That's why i feel religion is the most powerful threat to humanity unless it's true meaning is rediscovered. In today's environment below lines from Madhushala are really meaningful..
मुसलमान औ' हिन्दू है दो, एक, मगर, उनका प्याला,
एक, मगर, उनका मदिरालय, एक, मगर, उनकी हाला,
दोनों रहते एक न जब तक मस्जिद मन्दिर में जाते,
बैर बढ़ाते मस्जिद मन्दिर मेल कराती मधुशाला!
