Peope around the world have strange believes. Some are shocking and some very surprising. Some believe that worshipping will make it rain on the field suffering from drought. Some antient people believed that tsunami or hurrican or any natural disaster was the wrath of God due to some ill activities of human. People do believe, and as a universal law of attraction...... 'YOU RECEIVE WHAT YOU BELIEVE'.
I had been to Shree Pashupatinath with a good friend of minethis morning. It was my first time with her to any holy place.
I just feel so awesome when I go to Pashupatinath Temple. We had been there because its a favourite place of her as well. While we were worshipping around the tample, at a particular spot - she asked me to turn around and look up, towards the GAJUR. The Gajur was visible throuh a small peek hole created by positioning of many structures within the temple. Only the Gajur was visible through the hole. It looked beautiful.
'Wow its wonderfu', I said.
'Whoever saw the Gajur from this spot will have his/her wish fulfilled' she said with a brilliant smile.
'Do you believe in such things', I asked with surprise visible in my face.
'I dont believe in such superstition but the view is beautiful from here', was her answer with a smile.
She got busy worshipping the statues and i got busy thinking what the difference betwen me staying at home and meditating/reciting His Almighty's name vs. visiting a temple be. Any way I would be worshipping God.
However, later I discovered that it was not about worshipping but the feelings that holy places develop into human hearts. People feel more closer to God in Temples. They feel more safe, secure and at peace.
I had already turned to another direction from the Gajur view. My back facing it. But no matter what, because I am brought up in this society, I kept thinking of the Gajur at my back and hoping that my wishes come true.
