Dear God,
People say
that you exist. They say god never lets anything wrong, unjust and unfair
happen to anybody because we all are his children. They say what goes around
comes around. I do believe in karma but what I don’t understand is how can
someone know what is she punished for? I have seen people who have adopted
humanity as their only religion, people who have always tried to help the ones
who are in need, people who do their best to avoid hurting others, ultimately such
people suffer the most. Ever since I was a kid my mom and my ba taught me that
people, no matter how good or bad they are, have to pay for their actions
(karma). I was taught that in order to annihilate karma, one must repent and
empathize for her wrong deeds. One can also fast or control taste in order to
acquire “Nirjara”. Once she repents and empathizes, her suffering lessens. My
question to you is how would anyone know what is she being punished for? How would
a person who has always been “good” to everybody, all her life, know where she
went wrong? Are you not being unfair to that person? Doesn’t she deserve to
know the reason? If not that, doesn’t she deserve to get her demands/dreams/wishes
met once she has been through the hard times and is sorry for something she doesn’t
even know she has done wrong? If not that, doesn’t she deserve a conversation
with you in order to have her questions answered? If she is really your child, shouldn’t
she get the attention she needs from you? By ignoring her, are you not being
unfair to her?
Why a new
born baby who has just arrived in this world suffers from brain or lung or
whatever disease? Is it because of her previous life’s karma? Is it your way of
punishing her for something wrong that she has done in her previous life? If it
is, then how would she be able to empathize? A new born baby who doesn’t even
know who her mother is until she gets familiar with her mother’s smell, know
what she is being punished for and repent for something that she isn’t aware
of? And if she isn’t able to repent, how would she annihilate her karma? Isn’t punishing
someone without telling them the reason why they are being punished unfair?
I wish to
talk to you, connect with you, and believe in you! They say, “You need to
connect with your inner self in order to connect with God.” Really? I am honest
with myself still I am not able to find you! Do you really exist? Tell me soon
because I don’t want to doubt my faith!
Looking forward
to your REPLY, hehe
Love,
Pruthvi
