An Industry of Faith ‘&’ Religion

An Industry of Faith ‘&’ Religion

A spiritual land where eternal faith exists within the heart of almost every citizen.
A place well known for its religious customs n’ mythological tales.
A place of diverse religion but togetherness n’ unity when fusion.
This place is yes, one and only MY beloved nation- INDIA!

When we say about ‘Religious n’ Mythological Tales’ then, easily visualize a big picture of hundredth of people bind by one feeling of faith and belief. This sacred feeling is so profound that some folks even believe more on God than themselves. Sounds surprising! But, Is this so called ‘Eternal’ faith transforming to ‘Blind‘ faith? Is this blind faith be taken as advantage by some people? Can we say a religion as a weakness for the country? Aah! It depends. How? Somewhere it has united the folks under the shed of oneness or may reach to the registration desk for registering a new industry. Trumpets for the new upcoming emerging industry- “An Industry of Faith ‘&’ Religion “! This industry is not meant by the common people but by the priests or those who want to take an advantage of people’s devotion n’ belief in order to ample themselves. Here, religious corruption ignited because of the strong belief of people which allows them to be easily cheated by corrupt people. For Instance, someone want to own a land n’ property illegally. He can easily seize by placing an idol n’ makes it a temple. Nobody can remove this temple because it is sacred! Much of the land of our country is occupied by just temples. Constructed in almost every locality n’ even two or more small temples on roads. This direct us to the fact that number of temples constructed are more than the houses.

Priests too know that this field will earn them a large. What more humorous part can be when a ‘Classified Newspaper’ would be full of advertisements for seeking job in Temples or Universities will introduce another degree course as BTA (Bachelor Of Temple Applications) or MTA (Master of Temple Applications).

Faith is acceptable n’ appreciated as a support with motivation for the aspirations BUT what about blind faith? That faith which pursues God believers to donate valuable precious stuffs like ton of gold and silver for a purpose. Behind the curtains, this ultimately goes into the private pockets but not to the purpose that people donated for. This strong belief responsible for the bathing of Lord Shiva with liters of milk indiscriminately especially the on the occasion of MahaShivratri lastly reached the sewage, an absolutely wastage. Offering the idols in a limited amount is fine but donating indiscriminately generally lead to its wastage which can support needy and poor people. Why not help them with those gold n’ silver or ton of milk that might meet the thirst of their hunger. Well, this very fact can’t be ignored that helping needy instead proved to be the highest virtue of all. There are countable temples left where money goes into charity account. However, very few among them invest that amount wisely and others left in large proportion are mostly engaged in any corruption.

Sigh! An Industry of Faith ‘&’ Religion instead of rising economy or helping poor of our country is raising their funds as a black money in other country, thus, increasing the economy of others. Will this industry ever be involved in wise productions without any odour of corruption? Or will continue take an advantage of people’s faith? Whatsoever, but the country like INDIA can’t be dodged by corruption because of a strong belief and others can easily take advantage of that belief. In a nutshell, let’s start a revolution for fighting against corruption not only in the field of politics but also in religion n’ faith. And instead of donating money n’ milk like stuffs to statues, let’s donate them to poor n’ needy folks..!!

Amen…
