We Need God Not Fake Godmen
In recent time many fake Swamis, Babas, Gurus, spiritual priests, maulvis has come into the headlines for their fraudulent ways. I was very much shocked to read & watch the news on televesion that some spiritual gurus are charging thousands of rupees for meditation sessions. In the name of donation to their organisations, they charge enormous amounts from innocent people.
Just few days back I read in the newspaper, Coaching is given for fake Swamis & Mullahas in Kerala. With the growing demand & high earnings, self styled Godmen are learning magical tricks to attract more followers. The fake swamis & mullahs are paying around ten thousand fees to learn a three day course.
Though most of us are aware that Spiritual Wisdom is never for sale but still many ignorant & stupid people approach these fake Godmen.
Today everyone is living in a world full of trouble, anxiety, worries & stress. Peace of mind seems to be one of the rarest commodities in today’s time, but it is achievable. God's logic is beyond our comprehension. I am sure God’s help is available to us any time of the day and no matter what we are facing. Fake swamis or maulvis will never bring any positive changes in our lives. Change happens when we seek out God's will and then take the necessary action to accomplish that will.
Let me share a beautiful incident of well known Sufi saint Rabia Basri, One day, she was seen running through the streets, carrying a torch in one hand and a bucket of water in the other. When asked by the people what she was doing, she answered, I want to put out the fires of Hell, and burn down the rewards of Paradise. They block the way to God. I do not want to worship from fear of punishment or for the promise of reward, but simply for the love of God.
So let us not block the way to God, all we want is God & only God, not the fake Godmen. One should seek God through prayer and Holy Scriptures and not through fake swamis or babas.
It’s high time that our concerned legal authorities should take immediate action to arrest these fake spiritual gurus. There should be no discrimination on the basis of cast, religion, political party or status in the society. No mercy would be shown towards spiritual fraudsters.
