Do Not Worship God In The Name Of Fear

Most of us pray with fear to God. You can see mothers telling their children that if they don"t do certain things, God will get angry with them. These statements take root in the child at a very young age, and give them a wrong concept of God. All these are the conditioning that you give to your child at an early age. When they grow up, they face serious dilemmas because of this. Instead of embracing Existence with love and gratitude, they stand apart from it with respect and fear.

Religion if followed out of fear will not take you anywhere; it will not pave the way for a transformation to happen in you. You might progress materially by the faith that you have in your asking, but you will remain where you are at the Being level.

The purpose or real fulfillment of life can never happen in the material path; it can happen only at the Being level.
