Power of Gods

On Gods, the Power of Gods and Language of God

i) One God Theory is man's wrong imagination. It happens to be a strange desire of man that there should be only one God.

In general, the thinking man desires to hand over his responsibilities to some unknown and unseen and imaginary person. Thereby he tries to avoid further thinking. Even if proved otherwise, man wants to hold on to his single imaginary god. So far, there has not been a rationalistic thinking and research effort in understanding about god.

ii) The greatest mistake is imagining and believing that 'God knows all languages; God is beyond language and prayer offered in any language will be heard by God'.

"Man becomes God; Gods are the ancestors of the living men". The man who becomes God will know only the language or languages that he has learnt while he lived as human being. Even after becoming God, he cannot learn or understand other languages.

Since all gods were human beings once or Living human being only becomes god, the god must have this limitation. After becoming god, he doesnot have a human body and therefore there is no possibility of learning anything new. So, gods of this earth can never know languages other than the ones that they had learnt during their life-time.

iii) Man imagines like little children that 'God can do anything; God knows everything'. This is a great mistake.

During childhood, almost everyone thinks that their respectable elders could do everything in the world. The children would not like to accept the fact that their elders also have limitations. It takes some more years for the children to understand that fact. Similarly, man imagines that god is all powerful. Only after coming in contact with gods, man comes to understand that gods also have language limitations and other such limitations.

In the early scientific era, there was only one single field in science. In the course of time, it got expanded into Physics, Chemistry, Biology, .... and so on. Similarly, the early medical profession had only general practitioners. Now, there are medical practitioners for each part of the human body. In much the same way, in the True Indhu Religion as a science there are numerous branches.

The Western World in general has not gone deeper in the religious field. The Pathinen Siddhars of Tamil Land had done a lot of research in each and every aspect of human life. They have given forth a lot of Theory and Practice.

Unfortunately, the Pathinen Siddhars were of the opinion that every Tom, Dick and Harry cannot be forced to acquire all the knowledge within a time frame. They also did not want this knowledge to be spread using a Business model as the Western Education has been made available today in Schools, Colleges and Universities.

In the absence of knowledge in the field of religion, 'one god theory', 'god is all powerful', 'god can understand any language', 'god is the boss and all human beings are slaves or servants to him', 'god is there for punishing', 'man is a sinful being and god can save man if he asks for forgiveness', .... and such theories remain strong amongst human beings.

(iv) Language of God:-

As far as the language is concerned, Pathinen Siddhars give much importance to one's Mother tongue. They say that every human being should learn and practice in one's own Mother tongue ONLY. For this purpose, every language should be free from the domination of other languages all around the world.

The thought process can be well-organised and remain powerful only when a human being acquires knowledge through the language his mother uses natively. The learning starts from the time the baby starts the life in the womb of the mother. That is why it is called Mother Tongue.

Today the science accepts this fact. Therefore, learning could be furthered in the best possible manner only when education is in one's own mother tongue. In the same way, the prayers could be useful only when they are uttered with understanding. For this, the person praying to god should use his own mother tongue and the god also should know that language.

That is why, the Pathinen Siddhars have strongly stated that the language used for prayer should be in one's Mother tongue and Gods of one regional language can not understand prayers offered in other languages.

Let the educated come forward to do more research in this field which can make the world live better in future.
