Belief in God

BELIEF IN GOD To believe in God is to believe in something we already believe. Likewise, to see God is to see something already there for us to see. as i stood in front of the india Gate in new delhi, i thought what a magnificent specimen of architecture and sculpture it was! it is a structure that bears witness to man’s unique faculties. For a man to conceive of a thing like ‘india Gate’, he must think creatively before he can bring it into existence. he must make plans and then give them a concrete shape. on observing this, the thought came to my mind that even if all the stars, planets, trees, and animals were told to make an india Gate, they would fail to do so, even if all of them put their heads together. This is also the case with all other accomplishments of man. all of man’s performances are unique and are his exclusive prerogatives. no other being in the known universe can do the things that man can do by exercising his physical and mental faculties, be it the construction of the india Gate or operating a complex machine. God desired that man realize him on the conscious plane and recognize him through his intellect. That is why God created man with such distinctive faculties. Just as man is superior to all the creation of the universe, so is God superior to man.
