Spiritual Illusion

Once a person in his house everyday performed pooja and worshipped God. Everyday he used to get up early in the morning and did pooja and whorshipped God. This was his daily routine for years. A time came when he started giving advises on religion and rituals in his house and his neighbourhood and started bossing over his ways of worshipping and performing status. He started believing that his worship and rituals are the best.

In persent world this is a common example we come across everyday. People are in a illusion of religion and its rituals.

We come across many such peoples who will advise us how to perform our religion and rituals. As they are the mentor. They don’t even release that what they think might not be true to the person whom they are giving the advise.

For Eg. : A person is having a difficult social life then he would be advised to have fast on a certain day or days of a week. He would be advised to chant Mantra’s of some God or Goddess continuously.

But is it in a guarantee that by doing this he would overcome his social difficulties ? No, there is no guarantee. Infact it is possible that the person would feel irritating by doing all these things.

I would clearify myself here that I am not against any religion or any rituals. I am against the mindset of so called bossing people, who are bossing for their ways and understanding of religion.

Another Question here arises is that, “Do they really understand what their religion tries to make them understand ?” Or they just interpret as per their ideology or as per their convenience ?”

Such people who interpret religion and rituals as per their ideology or convenience lives in a state of “Spiritual Illusion” and tries to make everyone to follow him or her. Or tries to make everyone follow his or her ways of performing the religion, which might not be all that true or right as he or she thinks.
