My son,
God and truth are commons senses.
Like the common senses vary from person to person
From species to species
God and truth also vary its form, color and content.
Like the form and flavor/taste of fruits and flowers.
Let each one choose the taste, color and form of his own.
The choices are by the tongue, eyes or noses or ears.
Ultimately what will be availed in, made use and absorbed in, is
The colorless, formless and tasteless or flavorless.
*******************
My son,
The question shouldn’t be
Whether one believes or disbelieves
Or whether, in his belief, one is a monotheist or a polytheist
Or whether he worships God or worships not
Or whether he is worshipping with or without idols or symbols.
My son,
The real question should be
Whether one really does and means
Whatever he does and talks.
If one does so,
Whatever be the way
And whichever be the directions, languages and means,
In and with him is God,
Even if he is an atheist.
**************
My son,
To have many gods of different function
Doesn’t or will not mean
There are partners to the supreme entity,
Called OM or Allah or Parbrahma or Paramehswara.
Many is, in culmination, one.
And in one there are many.
My son,
All the angels, one believes in, are
Gods of different specific functions,
From which he (or you) cannot exclude even him (you).
My son,
Is there any one as monotheist?
Or has any one to be compulsorily a monotheist?
Or can any one be a pure monotheist?
Or is God functioning this Universe by himself alone,
Without involving other angels or gods or you?
Or are not the others and their hands God only,
Including you, me, angels and devils,
Through whom God functions this universe?
No.
No one is here as a monotheist,
And no one has not to be compulsorily a monotheist.
No one can here be only a monotheist.
Claims are only claims, not the flames.
This universality is functioning
Involving all the other angels or gods or you of God’s making.
You are part of this universality
And are part in the making of this universality.
You are part of God
And are part in the making of God.
So, in this way, my son, why one has to be
Only a monotheist or a polytheist to be a believer?
Why can’t a disbeliever be a believer too?
Why one believer can’t be a disbeliever too?
My son,
Don’t think of a God ever concerned of
How do you take, or believe in, him.
God is there in the way you imagine of him.
God is there in all the forms of your guesses about him.
My son,
All are equally polytheists
And there is nothing wrong in being called a polytheist,
Nor in being called a monotheist.
Neither is wrong as such.
Neither is right as such.
Both are equally right and wrong.
My son,
God is not there to think how he is taken and believed;
Rather, mind yourself as to
Whether you mean what you do mean
Whether you do what do you do
Where you talk what you do talk.
My son,
God is God,
With and without you,
Before and after you.
So, God never depends on any
To solve his identity crisis.
And don’t ever try to depict a God of
Identity crisis and inner conflict or friction.
My son,
The so-called monotheists also
Give a lot of attributes to God.
Those different attributes, when given form, are
Different idols or symbols.
Different Gods of different qualities or functions.
So, why one should be called a polytheist whereas the other is not?
My son, no monotheist is here without being a polytheist too?
My son,
One can have different figures.
A figure of a person of him in himself,
Even when taken differently by different people at the same time.
My son,
One is a brother, a father, a son, a friend, a stranger, an enemy, an employees, etc….
But, meanwhile, he is only one.
One is able to perform all the roles towards different people.
So, in the same time, one can be in many and be representing as many.
It is the entitlement of the people around him
How to take him,
Whereby there will come into being of many “him”
My son,
Even otherwise,
There is no monotheist who does not believe in angels.
Even according to them, angels are
The agents to whom powers of god are delegated.
The agent by which God made this universe into being and functioning.
My son,
The would mean
God is working through others than him.
Through others’ than his own.
Or God is making all the hands, including ours,
His own hands.
Or all, what we consider, other than him
Are only him or part of him.
My son,
To say so, what does it mean?
God is the one who is walking and working
Be it through you or any one or what you call an angel or deva.
In relation to a Cow,
God is reaching to its need
Through you or through any one who cares for it.
So, accordingly, a cow will pray to him.
Or its prayer will lead by itself to him.
To you or any one who cares for it.
It will pray to the one who cares for it.
Neither because it denies the real God
Nor because it is not a monotheist.
It is praying to the one who care for it,
Is equal to praying to God.
Just because, God works and walks through you or him
As the one who cares for the cow.
That is how all the universalities
And your world in it are created and designed
That is how God has designed
Even Mercedes car, Boeing flights.
Through you, giving you a feel of you and yours.
That is how parents are made and considered gods
To their children.
By reaching their parents
Children can reach their God.
Worshipping their parents
They can worship their God.
Just because
God reaches to the children
In the form of their parents.
That is how teachers are considered as Gods
God reaches to the children
In the form of their teachers
That is how spouses are considered,
To and by each other,
God and goddesses.
God is reaching to each of them
In the form and way they need.
Both as god and Goddess
Giving form and design to the whole Universality.
As mixture and meeting of opposites.
That is why and how
God did not want to show him
Beyond this rule.
That is how and why Brahma and Saraswathy.
That is how and why Shiva and Parvathy
That is how and why Vishnu and Lakshmi.
Equal is God and goddess, in their role.
One to sustain and other to support.
Perfection and oneness is their mutuality.
My son,
Devas also are not different.
They are the angels, the one who is delegated.
They are the agents, with delegated powers of and from God.
Praying to them is equal to praying to God.
Especially as they are the delegated ones by God,
Even as the Semitic religions conceive them.
As per Semitic religions too, my son,
There are billions and billions of angels.
Each angel is delegated with powers of each aspect of universality.
So, has come the concept of billions and billions of gods and goddesses too
In the same way, but with different names,
Including that of me and you.
*************
My son,
If I deny God,
You would say
I am a denier, hence an atheist.
But God is because God is;
Not because I am a theist.
Not because
I believe or deny him.
Then, why this much of worries
About and for God?
Especially if he doesn’t need any one for his support.
Then, why should you depict your God
As helpless and desperate…?
Then, why should you depict your God
As needing much more customers…?
Then, why should you depict your God
Of doing some business of selfish interest?
Then, why should you depict your God
As needing your support to market him?
Then, why should you depict your God
As failing in his marketing strategy
With all these marketing efforts?
Then, why should you put God,
Whom you consider almighty,
As ever failing and as ever demanding?
**********
And, my son,
If I believe only in God as well,
You will tell me that
I am not a believer or a theist as well.
You want me to believe half in God
Or only in half God.
Or you want me to believe that
God is only half.
You want me to believe
Not only in God
But in many other power centers and entities too.
You want me to believe in devils
Saying devil is different from God
And meaning devil is another god
In his/its own sphere of work.
******************
Those who say
There is devil as opposed to God,
They are prophets of Devils too.
Isn’t it so…?
They want devils,
More than God,
To create and pass
Orders and revelations
In the name of, on behalf of, God.
So their verses are
Devils verses too.
The real Satanic Verses.
Their scriptures are
The scriptures that got revealed
Because of Devil,
And mostly from devil.
The devil that never existed
Except in their own forms and fancies.
(Min al Jinnath and Wa nnaas)
So, what is a devil?
Especially according to those who preach
And as per our own common logic.
God is the one who doesn’t have
An identity crisis.
Never needing to prove him
Before his own creatures
Or his own different forms.
Then, why should God need to
Create and pass orders
When only he is there
And no one is there to contest him?
*************
Do you want me to feel and believe
Creatures have separate independent existence and entity.
OK, agreed.
Going that way
If I happen to tell you that
Each one is a Deva (like devil is in his sphere) in his own sphere
You will start to disagree as well.
Helplessness in either case.
That is why I would answer you,
When you ask me, that
God is only God
And only God remains.
When there is only God
It would mean that
God is equal to no-God
And no-God is equal to God.
That is the meaning of
“There is no God, But God.”
Like no color becoming a color by itself.
Be it black or white….
*************
If only God, then
How there can be anything
Than God or than that of God?
So, everything and every one is divine.
Or otherwise,
No one and nothing is divine.
If there is only God
So, no need of an extra command from God
To be implemented/injected artificially,
That too, with the support of one of his creation or image.
Whatever God wills, happens.
Whatever God doesn’t will, doesn’t’ happen.
(Maa shaa’a Allahu Kaan, Wa maa lam yasha’a lam yakun)
*************
If Qur’an was the intention of Mohammed
As the last ever Divine book revealed
He would have got it completed and compiled
During his life time,
And before his death.
Especially if there was a claim from him
That it is/was the last book
And he is/was the last prophet.
But Mohammed was a real mystic
Not to consider and say about God
To be talking only to him,
To have stopped such talks,
And to send down any book as the last book
And to claim as he is the last prophet.
No mystic person
Can or will ever claim any kind of exclusivity
To and from God
And wouldn’t claim for himself
To be the last and final one
To talk the truth.
It was the need of post Mohammed politics
And its governance,
To have such a book,
As the last book,
So as no one would question them
With a different view, beyond that.
And that was the message
In making Mohammed
As the last Prophet as well
Through the same book.
Qur’an was compiled into complete book,
As of today’s Qu’ran,
At least after 15-20 years after Mohammed.
A mystic mind can’t be thinking and brooding over
Making only him and his word as the last and final,
Except political dictators and totalitarians.
Mystic mind, which becomes really free of all bridles,
Do not say or think of full-stops
Or confining and limiting God to
Any time, person, language or region.
For him God is all encompassing and all-accommodating
Who can be in any form, but in no specific form.
Who can be heard and be heard in any language,
But not necessarily only with a specific language.

NOTHING WRONG WITH IDOLS AND IDOLATORS
My son,
If God is God,
Both negative and positive are in God.
As the same God
Both devil and God are in him,
As the same God.
My son,
If it is not easy for any (relative) to reach God (the absolute),
Or to have a feel of reaching God,
Even though God is everywhere near,
In and around any and all,
Then, please know, my son,
It is for God (the absolute) very easy to reach you,
The way you imagine about him,
The place where you want him to be.
My son,
God is there where you imagine for him.
God is there in the way you imagine about him.
God is in all the forms and expressions
You, helplessly or helpfully, want him to be in.
My son,
Don’t be so eager to attribute an allegation on God
To say that God can’t reach Everyone everywhere.
So, my son,
In idols too….
Idols are just like any name you give to God.
Just some other form of expression about God
With some other means than language.
My son,
Even the names given to God,
As “God” or “almighty” or “merciful”
Are idols/symbols made in and with letters in languages.
Those are the means or efforts of
Addressing or understanding God,
Done helplessly or helpfully,
To express with certain attributes or qualities.
My son,
Names are expression with letters,
Idols are expression with elements/materials
And paintings are expression with colors
Names are shaped with letters,
Idols are shaped with materials
And pictures shaped with colors.
All, helplessly or helpfully,
With knowledge or ignorance,
To give the same meaning.
All to mean the same God.
All equally to qualify,
Or to detail or express
One or other quality or aspect of God,
As per one’s own imagination
Of and about God.
My son,
God can be put in any other form as well,
If he can be put in forms of names,
To detail his qualities
Or to have feel of getting in touch of him
Or to address him.
God can be put in colors as well,
If he can be put in letters.
My son,
As per all your religions,
Well-accepted it is
That God is omnipresent.
Then why, my son,
He can’t reach and be present
In the idols too?
Does or will God need to deny him to you
Just because you want him to be seen
The way you can imagine about him,
Helpfully or helplessly,
With knowledge or ignorance?
Rather, My son,
Won’t God love
Such all small efforts and its creations
Made out of your helpfulness of helplessness.
My son,
At least, who will say or claim that
Such your imaginations and innovations
Make loss or damage to God?
My son,
If God can be heard through his words
Of languages of our talk,
As, said to be, Qur’an or bible is claimed to be,
Then why can’t he be seen and viewed
In the forms we see and understand?
If he can be heard,
It is equally believable,
He can be seen as well.
If he can be put in names
It is equally believable that
He can be put in forms of idols as well.
Words and names are just symbols
Like Idols.
Idols also are, and for, the same.
To attribute or express
Certain qualities of one’s imagination,
Which is done same way by the names as well.
My son,
If god is the one who is
Undefined and unconfined,
And who cannot be defined and confined as well,
That should mean that
He can be in and with all forms and names
Without limiting him to be
Only in any particular form and name
Or formless or nameless state.
****************
My son,
It is not God who cannot tolerate and accommodate,
It is not God, who cannot reach all,
It is not God, who needs everyone’s support,
It is not God, who will ask everyone,
To reach him to support him,
That too, in and through one and only
Way and direction.
In and through one and only language and place.
Giving a meaning that he is a confined one.
My son,
It is such a concept of confined God
Makes you also to be intolerant and extremistic
And ask you to see God only
In certain direction and places
Through and with only certain languages.
My son,
It is just because of frustration they feel
In winning with the concept of confined God,
They happen to be intolerant and extremistic.
Or it is just because they want everyone else
To be confined like their God is
In such their concepts and beliefs.
My son,
Don’t ever try to see God,
Even if you try, you can’t see God,
As the one so much concerned of himself
As to how he is taken or believed
Or is he taken as one or many
Or whether he is approached
Directly or indirectly.
My son,
Any one with frustration is a devil.
Even if he is God,
In frustration (relatively),
He is a devil.
So, is such a God becoming
Intolerant and extremistic an entity.
Negatively relative and relatively negative
Giving and giving revelations of
Negative messages.
My son,
Relatively negative side or aspect of God is
What a devil is.
My son,
Any God that preaches intolerance and extremism
Is Devil only,
But viewed, by those, as God.
The inspiration they get is thereby
The inspiration of negative God, Devil.
My son,
Defined and confined means relative.
So, the devil.
With faces and directions.
My son,
Undefined and unconfined is absolute,
So God.
Neither seen only as only one or only many.
One and many in the meantime.
Neither in one nor in many.
Neither defined nor confined by numbers.
And no one other than him to number him.
So, my son,
Without faces and directions
But with all the faces and directions.
All faces and forms are his
Whereas no particular face or form only is his.
My son,
When God is confined into
One religion and one language,
Defined only as this and that,
Insisting that, through no other language
Can he be addressed,
And through no other direction
Can he be accessed,
Such a God becomes a confined one, devil.
My son,
Anyone confined and narrowed is a devil,
At least in effect,
Though God (in absolute) do not make any change in himself.
My son,
That is the reason, in effect and result,
Any one happening to mistake and thereby believe
In such a confined and defined God,
(Insisting to be true in only one language and religion)
Is also becoming extremistic and intolerant.
And any one with frustration (devilish/negative) will easily tend to be
Extremistic and intolerant, without help.
****************
If God is God,
Both negative and positive are in God.
As the same God
Both devil and God are in him,
As the same God.
My son,
If it is not easy for any (relative) to reach God (the absolute),
