God and Man

exist.” Unfortunately, it is precisely the case with many people today. In the name of God, they are calling out to some or the other non-God, including the things and beings that, in reality, have no existence at all. Their reply is, as it were, “Sorry, this god does not exist.” If we are serious about the issue, we need to discover that system of thought or ideology where the concept of God is present in its pure form. This is important for every person. In their belief, every person has made some or the other ‘deity’ as their ‘god’. However, he does not obtain the results that follow from believing in the real God. From their experience, every person feels that the problem for them is not lack of belief in God but lack of the results of faith in God. It is an almost universal fact that nearly every person can know through personal experience. The cause of this difference between belief and the hopedfor results of belief can be just one. That is, in God’s name, a person has faith in some non-god. In this situation, naturally, he will not obtain the results of belief in God. Many scholars have researched this issue and have found the answer to it. One of them was a highly educated Bengali, Dr Nishikant Chattopadhyaya. In 1904, in a lecture in Hyderabad, he spoke about how he found the answer to his questions. He pointed out that although all the religions that had come into the world before the 7th century CE had a concept of God, in later times, their original texts did not remain intact. He said that the concept of God had been changed in all of these religions, as their original text was not preserved.
