hi hammie, read ur post and every ones comments and ur replies. Dutta always hoping that his life be trouble free or at least less complicated , he does everythig without god's help as he denied god's existance, according to him where has god been when good people were being punished when his family were in pain.yes, this is a common place sentiment amongst people who follow a faith.. it goes back to the age old battle of good and evil.. which most faiths profess.. also the message that good prevails over evil... dutta has noted much to his dismay that this may not be the case...as we see also in life..that he evil prosper and bloom..
according to some saying
" sona aag main jal kar hi kundan banta hai" so duttta had to suffer to get his just rewards in the end .
tahera this is the crux of your comment.. that holding a faith should not be based on knee jerk reactions, now I believe now I don't..Suffering in life is key to developing a certain perseverance in one's self, a discipline , which helps us to hope for gods grace and mercy and thus consolidates our faith in him.. he's asking god qs
although he was now seeing his family suffer but it had to be god who sent AS to him to save him from those drunken people who won him in a bet , it had to be god who sent a friend like baji for his shield in the big cruel world when there was no other male in the household he could bond with, it had t be god who sent him nakku.. to give him so much love that she would walk on fire for him or give her own life for him or his AS. Tahera, this passage is so well described as you have raised a serious point that.. a sturdy faith, is that which makes a person reflect that out of suffering comes, a certain wisdom which allows an aggrieved person to discern why things happen, and thus makes one stop for a moment to note where a spiritual force..has actually retrieved one from the pits.
yes the faith falters even for the faithful when seeing sufferingloved your, but we only want things our way, and don't expect to be tried for our patience.
yes.. suffering,is conducive to promoting patience,which in turn, gives hope and makes the faith strong.. Dutta too learnt this. But such a process does not happen over nite.. he had to jump through the hoops of life first.
hammie thanks for the post i don't know yt again if i made any sense or not. keep positng please, all new posts are increasing the activity on forum.ππ
Tahera, may I say, your post has certainly made an impact on me , you have brought out some important issues that contribute towards a more lasting and meaningful interpretation of a faith.. in Dutta we get to see a glimpse of his journey, towards this understanding, of what his faith meant to him... of course. goes with out saying , that out of faith , hope and charity the highest is LOVE.
Thanks, tahera.. loved your comment, with much love,as ever your.. a bit looney xxhammie
