At times I wonder why does god reflect a prejudiced and trivial side to an individual. Does god treat everyone disparately? Does he have the right to misuse his power to be partial? Does his existence is really a truth or just a chicanery? All these question when I asked to myself last night gave me a perplexed outlook towards his existence.
(Flashback)
Last night, I felt bored of going through the regular-generic Finance case study, so, just in order to rationalise my “Fin-key” thoughts and to give relaxation to my dead brain cells I pulled out an year old edition of The Outlook which was safely lying Virgin ( Read Unread ) in my drawer. While flipping through the pages I was stuck up to an article about a Retired IAS officer who lost his wife and a son in an accident sum two years ago. Embracing the reality and moving on with the life was the only option left, he said mournfully. However, even worst came when his second son, daughter-in-law and the only grandchild died in a fatal accident... The poor unfortunate retired officer couldn’t take this... Went into depression and now he is inmate in one of the mental asylums.
A shiver underwent my nerves thinking about the man..How the man would have felt Cremating 2 sons, wife, daughter-in-law and a grandchild in just 2 years of time. Every emotion came to a standstill in just 2 years. Albeit, he must have thought of a contended family after retirement while serving his tenure as Secretary.
In a somber mood I closed everything, including my Investment case which I had to deliver today but I could not. I’m feeling too gloomy to do anything. I want to meet the poor man. I want to console the unfortunate soul. God cannot be so cruel to an individual. How can he simply do that??? How can he? All these thoughts paved way to certain thoughts vis-a-viz everything related to atrocities of god.
All these Investment electives...Exchange Programs... Professors... Cases... Grades...Placement sounded divestiture of one’s dreams and hard work at this point of time.
And I was just left with a single question..Does god really exist???
However as they say – Change is only constant in this impassive world. Anyway lets regain my focus again...

You know what desh...this question has been asked by me several times. I know of people , old people who have kids, daughter/sons in law, grandkids but they still live alone. They are people who are very religious, not only religious but also very devoted and faithful and who keep going to the temple every day, even today no matter what....
This narrations pertains question to the existence of the god..
