Following are some of the points why I consider religion might be helpful to mankind :
Following are some of the points why I consider religion might be helpful to mankind :
- There should be some set of rules defined to make the people be synchronized.
- Generally even a strong chain can break if there is even one weak link.
- For a long run of existence there might be some steps taken which might be felt irrelevant at that point of instance.
- Even every religion customs will require amendments as with the change of the society.
Firstly, here mainly I want to compare religion with the constitution. Most of the people think we need to change out constitution as to meet with the present conditions of the people. But even most of those people who are waiting for a change do not know what exactly is there in the constitution. For example, there might we case like, there is already a provision provided in the constitution but which is not known to the common public. So, who can actually check what is present in the constitution and what should be changed? It can be done by a person who actually understands the constitution and well-versed with the existing rules and conditions and what exactly the people are expecting. Similarly to make modifications to any religion, one must we well aware of it, should understand the purpose and what modifications need to be done for the betterment of the people. We might call them as the religion guru or some sort of a name like that...
If we do things again and again it will become our habit. Collection of good habits from group of people will become a ritual..
ReplyDeleteCollection of rituals practiced by wide range of people in a place will become a custom..
Collection of customs that are followed and believed by people living in region/regions will become a culture..
And finally collection of such cultures which are accepted/followed by people in a region or different regions will become a RELIGION..
Initially when a Religion surfaces it will try to have all the good things and it will be finite to an extent I can say. But with people Religion also grows, proliferates, expands moves from one region to another.
As the time passes by, people believe in their own religion more and more. Slowly it became an identity of a person from the form of a habit/ritual/custom/culture.
Here at this point it is very tough to stop/think and take a different route that what your culture says about. There are great people who have done it also(Kandukuri Vereshalingam, Martin Luther and many)
When we try to separate themselves with the actual problem then they we be able to think and allow modifications.
