Sex edn on cell

In an earlier blog on "Dangers to personal life" I had lamented the use of cell
phones for commercialising the fine concept of love and the dangers it poses
to gullible youth.

The latest to emerge from the West is that the instrument is being used to
educate youth on sex in the positive sense of the term. Well, the positive after
all the negative things that go with it! At least they are thinking in those terms of
raising awareness.

It may come here after long long years but much damage would have been done
to the youth and children.

Worship everything

'Worship the creator, not his creations" ran the church message.
This view is also expressed by some Muslim scholars. One
also gets the same idea embedded in other religions like Hinduism.

Though Hindus broadly agree with it they worship the sun and
the moon, the two astral bodies. The day starts, for the religious
among them, with Surya namaskar. The direct benefits from
it makes them worship it as god himself. In fact, they have as
many gods and goddesses corresponding to the forces of nature.

Who can deny that nature is itself god? Does one not see god in
the designs on the wings of butterfly, in the interior decoration
in fruits, and in the eternal space?

Perhaps the saying meant that one should not worship man
himself. While it could be true that man is the seed of all
evil and is to be despised, he is also divine in nature.

The Self or atman resides in all of us irrespective of one's caste, creed, religion, gender
and status, so say Vedas and Upanishads.

Apart from worshipping god in form or without form one has to
know how to realise the god within which is only a manifestation
of the divine force prevalent everywhere. Then one crosses
all the barriers that divide man.
