Are we humans doomed from the start?

Indian mythology talks of three Gods - Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. Brahma the God of creation, Vishnu the God of sustenance and Shiva the lord of destruction. It is said that we are now in the Kali Yuga where the lord will destroy the world and the world will again begin from nothing.

Humans are actually quite recent phenomenon. The world existed billions of years before humans. We, humans are around 13000 years old on earth and that's like a blink in the lifetime of earth.

Are we the messengers of Shiva? The lord of destruction? Born to destroy the world and create it from the beginning?

We have consistently destroyed the surroundings. We are responsible for the disappearance of so many species from this world. We are polluting the atmosphere. We are killing the oceans. We are on the verge of melting the polar caps. Hell, we are on the verge of killing ourselves as some Harakiri where we are creating robots which will ultimately directly indirectly willingly unwillingly eliminate us.

We are on the verge of killing all forms of life on this planet so that the planet is again ready to sow the seeds of life once again and start life all over again.

And we will all merge with the soul of the universe and be free from the vicious cycle of life and death. We will merge with our creator and be whole again.

The power of hope

In my view, the gift of hope is the greatest gift mankind has with it. Every achievement no matter how small starts with this ability of ours - hope. And from hope arises the second gift we have - trust It's a combination of hope and trust that actually runs this world. When we get into a plane and are flying in the air with no safety net whatsoever, hope that we will be safe and the trust that a few of our species namely the engineers and pilots and even the person filling the fuel in the aircraft have done their best. We trust their ability to take care of us. The pilots do the same with pharmacists who design pills that we eat without thinking if we will be alive. Because we hope that we will get well and we trust our fellow humans. Name a profession, and we are bound by an unseen contract of hope and trust with humanity. The army, the farmers, the barbers, the bakers, the teachers, the nurses....the list is endless but yet the hope and trust is what we really buy in return for ...

Nature calling!

There is a tiny little compass within us, our conscience, the keeps giving us signals. There are times when it keeps warning us of the dangers of the city life we are living. It gives us hint of being at home when we are in the middle of nature. We are all like tiny parts of the nature we are so foolishly moving away from. And that's why we feel so much at home when we go to these places. We are parts of them - the air, the water, the soil, the fire that makes us us. Not the iphones and fancy toys we are so attached to these days. Let's make it a point to live closer to nature. To breathe pure air. To drink water unadulterated by modernism. To think thoughts that are pure and in tandem with the cosmos. There is a monk within us. Why do we hide him? Why do we not listen to him? We must. Before it's too late!
