Religion plays a major role in our lives. We are taught to be religious, we are told which religion do we belong and then begins, the things to follow and not follow, things to do and things not to do etc. There is a underlying urge to belong to something in all of us and religion fills the gap up to a great extent. But somewhere in the process of belonging to something, we lose the essence of it and it becomes the very basis of division and destruction.We identify ourselves so deeply that we forget the very fundamentals and deviate from the purpose to such an extent that the origin is completely forgotten.
Devotion is one of the key components which are taught in religion. A follower is taught to pray regularly so that the habit actually develops devotion in him. In order to attain the devotional state of mind you are given an object of devotion on which you need to focus by closing your eyes and trying to drive the activity of the mind on that object. The object of devotion I am talking about is every icon of religion on this planet who have ever existed on this planet and created prophecies of life or who exist today and continue to inspire people to lead happy and peaceful lives.
Devotion is the nexus amongst all religions in the world. I might visit a temple, a mosque or a church but when I close my eyes and invoke devotion within, the place of worship or the object of devotion loses significance because the key is the presence of devotion in me at that point in time. Love and devotion are two words used synonymously so the same can be said about love. The statement "You are in Love" actually emphasizes that the person has invoked love in him. It is that invocation which gives joy and happiness. Reciprocation is irrelevant if one truly understands the state of being in love or devotion. So just enjoy the state of being in "Devotion" or "Love".........
Note : Please forgive me if I have offended anyone. These are my thoughts. I may be right or I may be wrong. I would be blessed by those who correct me.
