Keep them simple

There are some things which we are making complicated but can be handled in very simple way.

One example is how we handled mosquitoes over the years. Scientists have invented Mats, Coils, Liquids and skin creams etc. We are using them in every home. But the problem still remains. OK. We will keep it simple and think in simple way. Mostly the birth place of mosquitoes are unclean premises like garbage, stagnant water etc,. So if we keep our locality clean then there is less chance of mosquitoes taking birth. Thats it. we got the solution.

One more example, how we keep our diet healthy. With all our basic education, we know our body needs Vitamins, Proteins, Fiber etc. So companies started selling packaged food where some items contain more fiber, some contains more vitamins etc. In the past couple of years, people started buying them by seeing the ADs. Some people even started eating vitamin tablets and Iron tablets. But people are not so healthy after having all these. OK. We will keep it simple and think in simple way. Before we got the packaged food, people were eating fresh fruits and vegetables. And they were healthy. Thats it. We got the solution. Eat fresh and stay healthy.

Its always better to think in simple way rather than making it complicated. We have to remember, very big locks will be opened with small keys.

Understanding God - Part 2

From the very young age I'm listening about GOD by many means. My parents told some stories. Friends, Books, TV also gave me many stories saying GOD is great, GOD is good. Everyone believes the same. I never opposed it, but I have a feeling that we didn't understand it properly. Because if you think GOD is great & good and he created this world, then why we are seeing bad, unhappy, hatred, cheating more than good, happy in this world . That is the time I started the process of understanding god. You can see the Part 1 of this series at Understanding God - Part1. 

In this generation you cannot think of GOD outside Religion. People made it that way. Seriously, now Religion is dominating GOD. So first we need to think the origins of religion.

The people who believe & follow Bible are called as Christians. People who are adherent to Quran are called as Muslims. The people who are living across Sindhu river are called as Hindus. Thats all. Religion is more about life style, beliefs.

Some nice thought: If people between two religions are fighting, do you think they will get support from the gods of respective religions? Then can we consider him as god?

So if we have to really understand GOD we have to think outside the religion. Bcoz GOD exists prior to religions and religions are something just created by people. 

Note: I cannot conclude anything until I understand GOD. These are just my thoughts and hope I understand GOD soon. 

why can't people understand this

I do something good and believe they will lead me to a good life. But somehow people around me are not able to follow this. Some people doesn't even understand it, even though they are well educated.

1. Traffic
2. Pollution
3. Unhealthy life

These are the common problems people are facing in city life. For all these problems there is a simple solution. CYCLING.
The first thing comes in everyone's mind is: It is very tough to cycle long distance. For all of them, I'm the best example. When I planned to buy bi-cycle, my resolution was to cycle just one day in a week. But starting from day one, still after 2 years, my preferred way of commuting to office is CYCLING. You will feel so easy once you start cycling.And also you will feel so proud for changing your life for GOOD cause.

I do cycling for 20 kms a day and I never felt tough or tired. There are so many people doing for 40 kms also never complained about tough. So you can think again for a golden chance to make your city life better.

If you can't do anything good for yourself then you have to blame yourself for your bad future.
