A person, five or six feet tall, whose life is not even in their own control, who did not come into existence by their own will, and cannot live forever by their own choice. If their breath stops, they cannot restore it. Yet, this same five or six-foot person stands claiming divinity in one place, and living a life worse than an animal in another. On the surface, there seems to be no enemy, but the biggest enemy they have is themselves. The person who stepped on the moon and explored the universe today remains deprived of even the God within their own heart.
Who created them? And why were they created? If no factory in the world comes into existence by itself, then how did this vast world come into existence? Not only did it come into existence, but it continues to function with consistency. This sun, if it were to move just one inch out of place, there would be no force capable of bringing it back. This sky, whose vastness our eyes see every day, stretching to the limits of our sight, no one has been able to touch it, let alone encompass it. In this sky, countless stars exist, many of which are far larger than our sun. Yet, they reveal their true nature every day: that they are nothing, and there are many galaxies beyond that, which we are bound to reach by the confines of time.
“Do not get lost in this day and night, For your time and space have much more to offer.”
There are many such truths scattered around us. But our minds are confused, and our vision is blinded. The ones who see the world around them, like the sky, see everything, yet the ones who seek the sky itself still fail to reach it. We have plenty of time to think and reflect, but we are not ready to think. This mental stagnation is what is making us resemble animals.
The clock of our life is ticking down, and life is melting away like ice. Those who understand only the surface of things have accepted it as everything. If this life is all there is, and there is nothing after death, then those who obtained wealth through all means, lawful or unlawful, would be the most fortunate. But if this is not the case, as it seems, then what will become of those who wasted their entire time? Human intellect suggests that acknowledging God brings no harm, but denying Him brings nothing but loss.
If God is acknowledged, then His divinity begins to become apparent. Surely, if He created us, then there must have been some purpose behind it. How can I believe that when nothing in this world is created without purpose, we came into this world without a purpose? The sun, the moon, the stars, and every particle of this world testify that nothing was created without a purpose. If we look closely at the workings of nature, there is nothing capable of disrupting it. If something is causing disruption, it is only humanity. Every living and non-living thing operates within its own domain. The lion hunts only one animal and does not attack without reason. Similarly, all creatures work within their designated roles.
We have never observed that any creature, like a crow, started drinking water from a pipe, or that fish tried to live on land. However, it is observed that humans, in an attempt to calm their anger, have killed many people. Humans have begun flying in the air and diving into the water. The smoke they create has started altering the environment.
How much power does a human possess to do whatever they wish? Does the Creator of the world not care that they are damaging it? On the surface, it seems like He does not mind, that people can do whatever they please. But if we think deeply, this freedom begins to appear limited. The history of the world testifies that whenever a nation or individual posed a threat to the existence of this world, God’s law intervened, and many, like Nimrod, Hitler, and Genghis Khan, ended up being erased from history, leaving no trace.
Now, if I say this, it would not be wrong: the Lord of the Worlds loves humanity immensely. If this were not the case, He would have destroyed the world long ago. Just as a mother loves her child and corrects them when they go wrong, similarly, the Creator loves us more than seventy mothers. He loves us unconditionally! Sometimes, He reprimands us so that we may find the straight path. But like spoiled children, we get so engrossed in the toys of this world that we become oblivious to the Creator, thinking we have grown so great on our own. Then, when He takes away a loved one (a toy) from us to turn our attention back to Him, we begin to complain, though we have no control over the situation. Yet, He has never left us alone, even for a moment. He is always paying attention to us, but someone must call on Him.
If ever you get the time, in solitude, just once, call out to Him sincerely from the depths of your heart, and then let me know whether God exists or not. Then He will show you what life truly is.
