I have always stood awestruck looking at the magnificent and glorious expressions of nature. How many creations! How many designs! Looking at the plants trees, flowers and fruits, birds, animals and insects and the thousands of water creatures in complicated designs and characters and capabilities- from the blue whale to the virus, and look at the sky and the blinking (not in reality) stars and the planets and the scorching sun ,what can we know about these or how can we understand the purpose behind this. To think that there is a god doing all this is difficult to believe, if so what made him. The big bang and the universe and before that the emptiness or the dark matter, or only darkness? I lose my bearing. More difficult than an ant trying to measure the size of an elephant or counting the grains of sand on the beach. Yes, the easy way out is to make god responsible for everything. But what was there before god? The question remains.
In this chaos of order how can I place myself? In the silence of the Himalayan ranges I have tried to unravel myself. But it is as difficult as understanding this universe, and I just stood looking at the peaks spellbound and feeling my smallness. How can I understand myself, I just do not know. I have found solace in the thought that I am just a part of the whole and the more I try to keep away from the whole the more confused I become. But my ego cannot accept such a thought for long. Yes, I think and therefore I am .Is it so?
