In a terrorist attack, why do some people get hit while others don't? Why does some kid get admission in one school and the other lad does not... an event which might shape up their lives differently. Why do people loose their loved ones in some ugly natural disaster... people and families who may become ruined and were hard working, the staunchest believers in God and followed His teachings in the closest manner they could. Why should a divorce between a couple leave a child without the parental love and care which should almost be guaranteed, what is the mistake of the child in all this? Why do some people are more successful than others?
Such and other questions have always ignited my thoughts and never have i been able to reach a peaceful conclusion. When we say that God is there to do justice why do we see so much injustice around us. All of us in our lives do come across events which are un-explainable. Sometimes, we tend to take refuge in beliefs such as "God has His strange ways of doing things!" or "People are being punished for their past deeds." or "God is taking away something to leave your hand empty so that you can receive something better." Sure there will be stories of the fulfillment of them but it is also true that this earth is full of tragedies absolutely unexplained. In our hearts we know that somewhere justice was not done. Is our Father in heaven so beyond us? As I write all this, I would confess that I am a very religious believer in God and I have Faith justice is eventually done, but I know about real-life stories around us where good people, real-good people weren't happy even to their death. So there remain questions which are truly beyond mortal comprehension. Or should we just believe that some events in life are truly random like the Brownian Motion and as Einstein believed that in equilibrium everything is absolutely random. So to say that as the world... from the Big bang moves towards equilibrium... somethings shall remain UNEXPLAINED!!!
provoking thought friend.....n very much reality....not few but most of the things are so damn unexplainable.
ReplyDeleteI think nothing is more random than life itself, and what we decide to call 'good luck' and 'bad luck' are mere coincidences that happen with all of us, but we refuse to accept them...but I'd also add that the randomness of life can be reduced by a millionth fraction by what we call 'karma'...it might be contrary to what Mr Grewal taught you...he never taught me actually! I am a 2004 Maths gradute from Stephen's to kill your curiosity
