~NOTHING WRONG IN THAT~

We are conditioned to focus
our thoughts on some object
and without anything to focus
we tend to lose concentration.

Hindu worshippers love God.
They would agree that God
is omnipotent omnipresent
and is in the creation by God.

And still they need statues of
Deities of Gods and Goddesses
to worship in the temples and
also inside their own homes.

Aryan believed in five elements
and followers of Aryan thoughts
created a statue of four books
called Vedas and worship that.

Followers of Buddha replaced
statue of God by statue of Buddha
and carried on worshipping him,
totally against the wishes of Buddha.

Same thing happened with Jain
worshipping statue of Mahavira
in place of statue of God again
against the wishes of Mahavira.

Muslims and Christians do not
believe in idol worshipping and
still they worship in Mosques
and Churches Kaaba and Cross.

Everyone knows the vastness
of the universe and knows that
the Creator of this Universe
is way beyond our imagination.

Our mind boggles and we feel
lost thinking about infinite time
and distances of the Universe
and its creator almighty God.

So we find ways of focusing
our thoughts on any object
that can help us worship God
in a logically illogical way.

There's nothing wrong in that;

provided we don't fight and kill
on the name of the object we select
to worship in place of the creator
of this Universe, Almighty God.
