Answer: It’s the Human desire, the longingness and the mere disbelief in pure coincidence, for they believe in supernatural existences. It’s not God who had created what we have today, the things without which one can’t live today. It’s the human need and the desire, as the famous saying goes, "Necessity is the mother of all inventions." I would also like to add, "Greed is the father of all the Destructions and Mishappenings." Do you agree with me that "True miracles were created by men when they had used the courage and intelligence they had?"
Also, the things we do land us where we are today. If you don’t understand what you want, the correct path you should follow to achieve or attain your needs (without harming others); you are meant to land in troubles for sure. At times, even an individual beside you might be responsible for the problems and dangers you face. Then, what in the world makes one to regard each and every thing in the name of God?
If you still believe that there is someone who is responsible for all these chaos and mishaps, then is it not God? It is he who had created the world with the hostile and wicked men in it, who were responsible for all the misdeeds, homicides, genocides and what not. It is the greedy desires of these well placed and responsible humans that made the world a Hell. So, what’s the point to believe in god and his existence if he is above all this? He is not much less than an Emperor, a wicked, unforgivable and merciless Emperor. Even, the history had overthrown emperors of this nature, so what should I do regarding this emperor who is invisible and shapeless? And I had done what I felt reasonable, out thrown him by disbelieving his very identity and origin as put forward by our ancestors.
Now, I follow my heart and "Believe in Reality and Think at practically." Also, I would stand alone and do anything confidently and courageously to succeed.
I wish all of you to think if you consider yourself being worthy and human, "A superior man seeks in Him, and the inferior seeks in others." Don’t enjoy the comfort of others opinions, without the discomfort of your Thought. The day a great number of men and women with this psychology, who can devote themselves to the service of humanity (in what everyway one can) and emancipation of their suffering and on a larger platform to maintain the ecological balance, that day will inaugurate the era of Liberty and Happiness.
“Fear that man who does not fear god.”

My Views on Religion and God III
So, Is the World happy, which was the purpose our ancestors had created and coined the words God and Theology. The answer would be a Unanimous 'NO,' instead they have becomes reasons for a majority of the genocides, wars, hostility and wrath. One can quote many of them which were carried in the name of God and religions worldwide.
What had the millions of ignorant civilians done that they deserve a pitiful death, except their Belief in god?
The word 'Belief,' also came into existence almost at the same time when the whole mythology had happened. It softens the hardships, even can make them pleasant. In God, man can find very strong consolation and support. Without Him man has to depend upon himself. To stand upon one's own legs amid storms and hurricanes is not a child's play. This adds to my arguments in the previous blogs.
Self-reliance is always interpreted as vanity. It is sad but there is no help, stand alone when others are not willing to join you. You go and oppose the prevailing faith, you go and criticise a hero, a great man who is generally believed to be above criticism because he is thought to be infallible, and the strength of your argument shall force the people to think that you are an arrogant bastard. It’s because our forefathers had set up a faith in some Supreme Being-the Almighty God-therefore, any man who dares to challenge the validity of that faith, or the very existence of that Supreme Being, shall have to be called an apostate, a renegade. Remember that, "The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone."
At such testing moments, vanity if any evaporates and man cannot dare to defy the general beliefs. If he does, then we must conclude that he has got certain other strength than mere vanity. Mind that this is not philosophy, which occupies important place when one lacks direct proof. Philosophy is the outcome of Human weakness or limitation of Knowledge. But, all the things I had stated and will be mentioning here after are a pure outcome of my reasoning and I am not weak to obey and follow as many of us do. So, being strong, I am not to compromise.
Next crops another question, what would be the reason for all the things happening around?
I would give my answer to it in the next and the last in this series of blogs.

Ecological Balance
Where would you go when you are free and fed up watching the idiot box or sleeping in the home? In short, what recreational
facilities would you look for? I think many of you would go for a multiplex, a restaurant, a relative’s house or a mall. Of
course that’s what even I would do if I have just few hours at my hand, but I wouldn’t think of them if I have few days at my
service. I would go and enjoy the nature in its raw form, distant from the polluted cities and industrialized town and
villages. I would go and have a pure breath in some deep forest or a valley. It’s not only healthy, but makes one forget and
move away from the day to day worries, and chores a human is entitled to undergo. I would like to change the definition of
the word “Aesthetic sense” if given an opportunity by associating it with the “Nature.”But the credentials of these so called
natural heritage sites are changing drastically due to various human activities like industrialization, deforestation,
poaching etc.
These natural heritage locations vary in the genre; like lakes, mountains, forests, wildlife etc. But, visiting and enjoying these beautiful places need to be done with utmost care and caution so as not to harm the very nature of it. I think many of you had seen the advertisement of “Save Our Tigers,” but how many of you had visited the website?? Not many I think, but among those who were aware of the campaign, what would be the number who helped it by donating? If not, there are few other ways for fighting the cause. But, how many had ever thought of doing any thing for this cause? I know few who would love to donate to the orphanages, but how is a tiger’s life less valuable than an orphan’s?
There wouldn't be any difference even if a thousand orphans die, as we have lakhs of them and even their number increase every year even though many of us help for their upliftment. But if the same thousand of our national animal "Tiger" die, we would take the distinction of "The Only Country whose national animal is not found in its territory." Would you be happy with such a distinction to our country? If so, then rip of your title of a social animal and rename yourself as an egocentric animal. But if you want to help in preserving the nature, there are many other ways like green living etc, the details of which can be found in the web. Encourage the tourist guides by hiring them in the places of Natural or Environmental Heritages as they might indulge themselves in poaching, deforestation etc., for their livelihood. Don’t think that they are burning your pocket, but assure yourself that you are protecting the nature. Also buy some useful handicrafts made by the people living in those areas.
If all these small things are not feasible to you, then it’s high time that you should encourage the government to rename our National Animal as, “Human Being,” for us a billion strong people whose count increases every second. Also, one might encourage consuming their meat (like chicken, mutton) for they would be brought up in farm lands like the hen, goat etc. Remember these are not among the endangered species as many people breed them in the farms to earn money, which might become the case even with tigers. If the wild animals are killed, people would feel free to exploit the forest, the rivers and flora and fauna disturbing the ecological cycle of the planet. So, be certain of the path you choose.
Another important beauty that needed to be taken care of is the shoreline of the country. The seas not only reduce our prominent malignant neighbours, but they also boost the tourism of the cities that are along its shore. Now-a-days, we see many of the seas/beaches being polluted by draining the sewage water in to them, making them in habitual for the various species. So, is it not our duty to protect the greenery, forest cover, wild life and beaches of our country? There should be an ecological balance for the humans to survive. So, we should preserve the nature in order to protect over selves from the natural disasters. Yes, it has a selfish touch too that many of us love!!! So, what are you waiting for??
Even the government had taken initiative in order to preserve the greenery and the beautification of the beaches of Goa by allocating a huge fund of Rs. 200 crores in this budget. So, why only we should lag?

Loneliness
Ever since I grew up, I was of the opinion that I am nothing without my friends. They made me happy, sad, celebrate and enjoy the life. But, the year 2010 started with a sad note, I started to live alone in Gurgaon (NCR), the Las Vegas of India, doing an intern in a renowned R & D unit in the power back-up sector. Though I had waited for this kind of work for few years, there is some emptiness, dullness and slack in this life. Did you also face these kinds of dull moments in your life?
No doubt, History has been a witness to the loneliness of great men, who were geniuses. Almost every Genius has a need for being alone. There are long moments of loneliness for men in politics, research, business and sports. Loneliness was fundamental for the scientists who made great inventions and discoveries. There are some who prefer the lonely isolated road, by choice. It's their success formula which makes them independent to take tough decisions either in the area of politics or business.
But, I am not one of those kinds, I didn’t choose loneliness, but I am appended to it. There are no friends except a couple of acquaintances in this great city. This loneliness is haunting me and ultimately self threatening. I am unable to make new friends in this fairy land where everyone are running after money and luxuries and most importantly, they are selfish. So, in order to protect myself from the prince of darkness, going by the saying, “Idle brain is the Devil’s Advocate,” I stopped to think about myself. This made me to think about the society and the surroundings, from this thinking cropped the idea of my blogging. It had become a media for letting off my loneliness and communicating my thoughts to the friends worldwide. Social networking has not helped as it is a remote contact.
Books, one of my belongings ever since I grew up, came to my rescue when writing had become superfluous. A new thing that’s been added to my belongings is my laptop, which is a reserve of knowledge, documentaries of NatGeo, Discovery and BBC. So, I created a new world for myself in which I am the only citizen. But, how long does this world of mine survive? Is it worth the attention and importance I am showering on it? How long can I survive without walking into oblivion? Can I accustom myself to this new world and live happily ever after?
What is the need of money, power and luxuries if one is alone? Can one admire those unless they are shared and whom do you tell that you are happy with them? Some of us go to distant lands not only to earn money, name and fame, but to earn a tag of being in the dream land. Can they be happy without anyone to share their happiness? I yearn it be a ‘No,’ to satisfy my ego. I know that some lone crusaders have turned loneliness into their comfortable companion, but can I turn it into a long-lasting companion?
Only time has the answers for the above questions that I had put to myself. If you don’t want to be lonely, don’t guard yourself too closely and make acquaintances as you advance in your life, otherwise you would soon find yourself alone. Don’t love someone to such an extent that it makes you impotent to live with out them. Instead, give birth to yourself to know what you are capable of. The most important product of one’s effort is one’s own personality. Also you would have no rivals if you fall in love with yourself. Remember that at some point in life; almost everyone could face this issue of loneliness.
So, I live according to the quote by the Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore,”If no one is willing to walk with you, walk alone,” singing
“I walk on lonely road, the lonely one that I had never known, don’t know where it goes, but it’s only me and I walk alone….”
