WHEN GOD WALKED THE EARTH CHAPTER 40
God leaves the earth and returns to heaven

When God reached His heavenly abode, he was surrounded by all the denizens of heaven who were eager to know about His experiences on earth,” the earth is full of strife, violence and terror”, said God, “when I created the world I thought all my creations will happily and peacefully live together, but what I saw was really very saddening, everyone is at each others throat and each one is trying to eradicate other forms of life from the earth. The world has fallen apart due to regular wars, bomb blasts and grenade attacks, besides this destruction carried out by humans on one hand , on the other hand-there is nature which is adding to men’s woes’ They are subjected to regular storms, floods, earthquakes and dreadful diseases which makes it extremely difficult for the man to survive”
Everyone listened to Him in stunned disbelief,” terrorism and terrorists have made life very difficult on the earth”, said God
“and who are these terrorists?’ asked one of the devatas
“terrorists are the greatest enemies of mankind, they want to undo what I have done, by destroying all that I have created with so much love and attention”,
“what is the objective of these terrorists what do they gain by the destruction they have unleashed upon the earth?”, questioned another devta
“terrorists are a religious group owing alliance to a religion which preaches love and brotherhood of man, they want to propagate the supremacy of their religion on earth and they use fear and violence to make people who do not believe in their religion to bow down to their religion, they bomb planes, trains, buildings to get the world to listen to their arm twisting methods”, replied God
“why don’t people come together and annihilate the terrorism and terrorists from the face of this earth?”, asked a devi
“on their own”, they can achieve nothing ,replied God” they need the help of their rulers, but there is unholy nexious between the terrorist and the rulers, most of the politicians are corrupt, they are fed by the terrorist to give them way to carry on with their obnoxious deeds. The rulers are always a privileged lot-at the personal level they are responsible for their own deeds and at the social level they are responsible for their citizens, birds, cattle, wild life,forests, hill, mountains and rivers. Since they represent the societies collective mandate, their duty is to maintain law and order both amongst their subjects and amongst forces of nature,. But the rulers have deviated from their path of duty and have joined forces with evil, the people watch helplessly ,they are living in conditions where their security is always threatened, the rulers have failed them completely ,people are living in inhuman conditions ,they live like corpses tightly wrapped in shrouds they have failed to alleviate poverty which is a cancer eating into everyone’s soul ,with fires burning In their bellies man has lost his discretion of right and wrong and therefore most of the recruits are found amongst them by the terrorist, to appease their hunger these people are willing to go to any extent-even to kill,maim and destroy their fellow human beings Believe me hunger is the worst experience you can get on earth, man can survive with out every thing but not without food, I have experienced the hunger pangs therefore I know how difficult it is to live with hunger”, God was quiet for some time, then He continued, in a sad tone” I had created this world with all its bounties for everyone of my creation to enjoy, but I am sorry to say, a few have usurped everything and thrown the rest in abysmal conditions”,
“then why don’t you take birth again to destroy the evil and bring forth peace and happiness on earth”. Questioned Lord Shiva
“you had promised the humans that you will take birth again in the age of kali, the kali age has arrived, people are waiting for you eagerly to deliver them from evil, why don’t you take birth now since the world is reeling under evil and destructive forces?”,Lord Brahma demanded to know
“He can not take birth now”, replied Goddess Laxshmi,”people have to wait for another thousand years for Him to take birth “
“till then how will the human beings endure so much sufferings, chaos and disorder?”, asked Lord Shiva
“the human race can survive for trillions and millions of years, they have amazing resilience in the face of tragedy because they have learnt to deal with all types of calamities both man made and brought about by nature, they have braved it all, after every calamity they fall on their face, but they get up again slowly limping with great pain but with renewed energy they restart again from where they had left they start running against time to reach their goal, they run, run and run like one possessed to reach and catch in their hands their elusive goals but most of the time , time runs faster then them and before they reach their goals , they are engulfed by baffling storms and dark clouds but unafraid of these dark forces , they forge ahead followed by these forces with a vengeance which throws them off their balance, again man gets up and fights these forces stubbornly and ultimately he wins and moves on undettered to his goal, nothing, nothing can break his spirit - no wars, no bombs, no storns, no typhoons, no earthquackes, no dreadful disease this to me is known as the great art of survival and till there is earth man will survive it is my promise to all of you “,said God and everyone present cheered God and His multiple creation

THE END

WHEN GOD WALKS THE EARTH CHAPTER 39
God is greviously hurt in a terrorist attack

God was going to the airport to receive Harry and John who were coming as guests to the school for the independence day celebrations. This was their first visit to the village and since He had not seen them since a very long time , He was extremely excited about their visit, and so He was going personally to receive His dearest friends.
On the way a powerful blast occurred when the militants threw a powerful grenade inside the car seriously wounding Him
God was immediately rushed to the hospital and put in ICU and kept on ventilator .The news of the accident spread like wild fire and people in thousands started converging on roads, they started shouting slogans against the government and started throwing stones on vehicles and moving buses completely blocking the roads. Traffic soon went off the roads and shop keepers downed their shutters. The police had to resort to bursting tear gas shells to disperse the unruly mobs, the commissioner of police had just sat down to lunch when the wireless operator rushed in and told him about the blast, he left his food untouched and got into his car and took the shortest cut to reach the scene of the blast. Already there was present a huge posse of police men who were trying to control the highly agitated mobs, He was joined by the deputy commissioner of police and together they were about to leave for the hospital when he was informed by his staff that they had the information that a maruti car with its rear windscreen broken was found abandoned a few meters away from the site of the crime, both of them rushed to the spot and they saw the car which yielded some pistols and many grenades. The most important find was the photocopy of the cars registration certificate that had the address of Faizal, one of the most dreaded terrorists alive. The address given was that of a building situated in the sleazier section of the town, when they visited the building they found him hiding on the loft and they arrested him on the spot.
Faizal had been very close to the don whom God had turned into a peaceful and honest man and because of him turning a new leaf peace was brought to Kashmir ,all the gangsters who had been working with the don had mended their ways except Faizal who had started His own group, He had been a master manager when he had worked with don and had deftly managed all his ill-gotten wealth, he had also been instrumental in recruiting dozens of gullible youngsters for the purpose of receiving training at the terrorists camps, he had carried a grudge against God from the time He had reformed the don and since then he was diligently watching all His movements carefully to finish Him, He had tried many times to get at Him but in vain but today He had got the opportunity and he used it to advantage, he was very happy to put an end to a man who had put an end to his dreams of turning Kashmir into an Islamic state
After his arrest the mobs calmed down a little and they all rushed to the hospital, the hospital was over flowing with people from every strata of society and all faiths who were eager to know the latest on Gods health. God was loved by one and all wether old or young, rich or poor woman or man He was to all of them an embodiment of all that is good and kind in a short time He had become beloved of all., He was the ultimate icon who had not only inspired this small village, but the entire nation, He was a great friend, philosopher and guide who would go to any extent to help others, Supremely intelligent and passionately involved in whatever task He undertook , He was a role model for people whom He managed and motivated showing them that it was not impossible to achieve any thing. Everyone had only one prayer on their lips that He should come out hale and hearty and be with them once again, everyone was keeping a constant vigil outside the hospital , each one praying to the creator for His quick recovery, but the doctor had already told His near and dear ones that there was very little hope, since all His vital organs had been affected which were beyond repair. In a last ditch effort to save His body, Goddess Laxshmi summoned the celestial physician Danwantrai to examine God and give his opinion ,after examining Him thoroughly ,he declared that unless Gods body was fitted with new organs, He could not survive.
“do you want me to change His organs mother?, it will take me just a second to do it”, “
Said the physician
“no”, replied the Goddess,” it is high time God returned back to His abode ”,then turning to God she said,” my lord you are on a ventilator, your body is completely destroyed, now please leave it and come with me”,
“you are right devi, this body has turned completely useless for me, although I feel sad to leave it, I have to leave it” God stood a while and gave it one last look and then He followed Goddess Laxshmi and together they left for their heavenly abode.

When the doctors announced His death, the people started wailing and beating their breasts, the police soon arrived to disperse the wailing mobs, there was great tension in the area and therefore security was beefed up all over the place, His body was taken to the institution created by Him amongst highest security and kept for the public who had come from all over the country and abroad to pay their last respects to Him. For a week the body was kept in an open glass casket inlaid with gold and silver and surrounded by aromatic multi-hued fragrant blooms. And finally the day arrived to lay the body to rest, the three best friends of God, Harry, John and Mohammed all wanted to perform the last rites according to their religion, soon a war of words ensured between them and heavy entourage of friends who had come with them to attend the funeral and this culminated in blows between them,
The local politicians who always like to make hay while the sun shone, jumped into the fray and started stoking the fire of hate between the three friends and their followers and this led the full village to be divided into communal lines. The village and the town In which the village stood was put on high alert any time there was a danger of communal flare up, since there was a fierce determination between all the communities to perform Gods last rites according to their own religious beliefs.
“what will you do now?. How will you handle this explosive situation which is getting out of hand every moment?”, asked the Goddess as she and God were watching every thing happening on earth
“I think we have given too many religions to men”, said God, “religion seems to be the root cause of all evil, people want to live for their own religion and die for it, they also want to kill for it, the devotee is so singular in his devotion to his cause of arousing fervent following, he does not mind killing others ,himself or his family to reach the goal of increasing followers to his particular deity in the mistaken notion and conviction that he will get salvation and other luxuries when he reaches heaven”
“you are right my lord”, said the Goddess “the man becomes so devoted to his deity that he turns a fanatic , he wants every one to pray and follow his deity and in doing this he underscores the reality that there is only one God with different forms, now lord you can only save this explosive situation otherwise the whole village and the town will go up in flames including the institution you loved so much”
“don’t worry devi I wont allow such a situation to happen” said God

As the people were quarreling amongst themselves, a wild gust of wind came through the window and the gossamer thin silk covering Gods body flew off revealing the body in all its glory and splendor., His face glowed like molten gold which was enveloped in a canopy of lustrous and flowing hair, everyone present was overpowered by the wonderous sight., it seemed to them that at any moment He would sit up and talk to them, they were all rooted to the spot, just feasting their eyes on the beautiful sight before them, at that moment God gave every one divine eyes because nobody could see with human eyes what He was about to reveal before them, Suddenly all present could see the entire universe , the moving and the moving all contained in His physical structure , they could see all the denizens of heaven, all the Gods and Goddess and prophets of all religions present in Him. Every one was filled with wonder, with their hands standing on end, bowed heads and joined hands they cried,” we see in you the universal oneness, we have come to know today that from you all creations arise and we have come to know that there is only one celestial thread which goes through every being making a single garland”
Suddenly the atmosphere began to reverberate with Gods voice which everyone could hear clearly “my friends I must tell you that religions do not interest me, they are your creations not mine. But I am happy that every one of the religions claim that there is one God which is absolutely true, but at the same time all of you claim that your religion is the best and your God or prophet is the greatest and therefore everyone should follow the teachings of your religion , every religion has a uniqe style of worship and commuting with me, religions were created so that you can find the best possible path to reach me but it was certainly not created to abuse and fight with others who do not follow your religion. There is no doubt that religion is a powerful force for the betterment of society but it becomes a force of backwardness if it preaches superiority and hatred against other religions. Different religions have been created so that a man can select the religion of his choice to reach his creator, but no religion teaches hate, every religion teaches love, forgiveness and equality and benevolence the people who thrive on hatred and find it convenient to wage jihad-holy war against those who they think are non-believers are foolish, they think that if they risk their lives by turning into human bombs and becoming martyrs will get them a place in heaven amongst beautiful fairies, but the terror killings and vengeance against other religions the misguided ones are propagating can only open doors of hell to them because they have turned into lovers of hate.
I do not play favorites all of you are equally dear to me. I am thoroughly ashamed of those who fight in my name, kill, maim and destroy each other to propagate my name, it is time you gain an understanding that I do not need any one of you neither do I require any favors from you, I can look after myself so for my sake do not turn into hate machines, my only request to you all is instead of trying to please me by fighting with each other in my name, I would rather you have a good and a loving heart do not use religion as a loyalty pledge to me, its high time you changed your psyche lift yourselves to a new high ground where mud of hatred will not taint you , if you really love me and want to make me happy then instead of building temples, churches and mosques in my name make a temple of love , forgiveness and benevolence in your heart by feeding the hungry, covering the naked, giving shelter to the homeless , and protecting the abused this will give me happiness and you too”.
These powerful words which came from the atmosphere around them rang all over the place and were heard by everyone, all fell down on their knees and cried,” salutation to you, you that is infinite in power, you are the greatest teacher there is, there is none that is equal to you or superior to you. You who are unparallel in power we crave your forgiveness. As a father forgives his son, a lover his beloved and even so you should forgive us .Oh refuge of this world, please be gracious to us, now we know the true purpose of your visit to the earth, you wanted to bind us all in true brotherhood and we promise you we shall not let your visit go in vain ”,said Harry in a highly emotional voice
“not knowing your glories please forgive us for what ever we may have done in our ignorance”, said Mohammed
“in our ignorance we have dishonored you many times by jesting with you, playing with you, .eating with you and arguing with you, please forgive us for taking liberties with you”, said John
No body could utter a word for all of them were highly perturbed and bewildered by what they had seen, God knew that He had achieved His aim by giving rise to tolerance, love and dedication towards each other in their hearts therefore He made the necessary inward adjustment of every one so that they would become normal again, the divine eye was removed and every one returned to normalcy, every one forgot their fight and together they laid His body in a beautiful tomb, on this was raised a beautiful edifice, the edifice was made of pink and blue marbles with many arches and verandhas .It resembled a patch of heaven, verdant green well planned and beautifully landscaped. All those who visited the temple were charmed by its beauty and felt here indeed was the spiritual world –this temple showed them that there were many roads to the inner divine self , and the search for inner self ended here, these spiritual practices weeded them away from religious differences which gave rise to divisions and conflicts, this created unity amongst different beings and deeper understanding of one another-peoples from all religions ,castes and creeds sang a universal prayer with one heart which was full of peace, joy and happiness.

WHEN GOD WALKED THE EARTH CHAPTER 39
God is threatened by the terrorist

Najma appa sat by the window watching the lightening streak across the inky black sky.The thunder rolled and the wind sailed through the open window disarranging every thing around her, She did not shut the window because she knew that the first rain of the season would make an appearance. She loved the feel of the rain on her naked skin, it was years since she had walked in the rain drenched to the skin, all of a sudden it started raining, first in tiny drops, then in big fat drops, The scent of the wet earth wafted through the open window transporting her to the days of her childhood. She could see herself returning home dripping wet, her clothes, handbag and even her shoes full of water, Her mother would ask her to change her clothes immediately and then she would dry her hair with a big soft towel and make her drink a strong cup of coffee laced with brandy, according to her mother this was the perfect antidote for warding off cold. Suddenely she became a young girl again and once again she wanted to experience the thrill of being in the rain, She wheeled herself to the entrance and faced the steps, it was a difficult task to move down the steps all by herself, it could be dangerous, but no power in the world could stop her today because she was possessed by the rain. She wheeled her chair right over the steps and the next thing she knew, she was lying on her face on the wet earth and the wheel chair had settled on its side a few steps away from her. She closed her eyes and let the rain fall on her till her skin tingled, she opened her mouth allowing the crystal clear water to flow down her throat and her senses reveled in the smell of the wet fragrant ground around her. She lay there enjoying herself thoroughly, she was full of ecstasy and amazement at having atlast achieved the unthinkable . She would have never done any thing like this in her saner moments, but the madness for the rains had made her take this step and she was enjoying every bit of her experience.
When her husband came looking out for her,. he was besides himself with worry to find her in the state she was in, the first thought that crossed his mind was that she had met with a serious accident,. But when he came upon her, he found her thoroughly enjoying herself, she seemed to be in seventh heaven, the joy and happiness on her face had to be seen to be believed” how come you are in this state?”, he asked her in a worried tone
“why what is wrong with me? I came here to experience the rains and I am enjoying myself thoroughly”, was her answer
“now enough of getting wait, come on let us go in otherwise you will catch pneumonia “.,he said, then picking her up, he put her in the wheel chair and wheeled her inside, he changed her clothes and made her a hot cup of coffee laced with brandy, a short while later when her husband came face to face God, he complained, “she has become very careless sir, she wheeled herself outside on her own to enjoy the rains but she was lucky she didn’t hurt herself inspite of falling from the chair”
“nothing happens before time” said Najma” if it was written in my karmas that I would hurt myself then I would have been hurt even in the house, every thing is predestined am I right sir?” she said addressing God
“you are absolutely right”, answered God”only one day is marked for death, but people who are afraid they die daily and people who are brave , have confidance in themselves and they don’t let any situation shake them”,
“but she should have asked me to take her out, I would have not refused her”, said her husband
you should always live an independent life let all the benefits and failures be yours ,then you wont be subservient to any one-you will be free to go anywhere and do anything for this you have to build confidance in yourself ,and your wife has great confidance in herself and I hope no body and no one will be able to shake her up, she still has a child living within her, infact everyone has a child in them at all times, but in many cases it gets lost, leaving an adult mind behind which is full of worries and tensions, But her child has not left her, it is still living in her,, this child has made her a fine person and she is therefore full of love like a little child”, Hearing all these praises from God she blushed a rosy pink. Just then the telephone rang and God who was near the phone, picked up the receiver, “so it is you bhiru”, spoke a voice in the receiver
“who is bhiru?”, asked God
“you, yourself”, said the voice
“but my name is God”
“whatever your name may be, you keep four petties ready we are coming tomarrow to collect them, if you don’t keep them ready then you will be khalas”,
“but what is a patti?”asked God in a surprised voice
“don’t be a sayana man,don’t tell me you don’t know what is a patti, one crore rupees means one patti and four crores mean 4 patties”
“I don’t have so much money”, said God
“you are an arab patti , your school has transformed an obsecure village into a fast growning multi-national centre, in a relatively short period of time your school has become one of the best teaching centres in the world with grants pouring in from all over the world and yet you say you have no money”
“all the money belongs to the school, personally I have nothing to call my own except the clothes on my back” said God
“wether you are rich or poor we have nothing to do with it, our only mission is to get the money,if you do not deliver us the money tomarrow then be sure it will be your last day on this earth, this an order from my boss who is the leader of V gang“, and the phone went dead in Gods hands
“whose phone was it?” asked Najma on seeing the worried look on His face
“it was a call from V gang, they were demanding 4 crores of rupees and they have given me tomarrow’s deadline, if I fail to deliver they have threatened to kill me”.
“v gang is an extremely dangerous they do not give empty threats”,Najma was besides herself with worry.
“don’t worry “,replied God, “I will find out a way, tomarrow is another day so why worry today, now go and take rest you have had a nasty fall, leave all the worrying to me”
God left the room and went to His bedroom where Goddess Laxshmi was waiting for him
“you are still enjoying your human form my lord, with the threat hanging over your head don’t you think its time for you to return”, said the Goddess
“what threat are you talking about?”, God asked feigning ignorance
“I heard every thing the terrorists were telling you on the telephone, from where are you going to bring so much money and you have already heard from Najma that they don’t give empty threats”, the Goddess said in a worried voice
“believe me devi I will find a way out”. Said God in a confident voice “now I want to be alone to do some serious thinking”, Goddess Laxshmi knew it was time to leave Him alone,she also knew that He could get out of any situation with out taking any help

The next day when God was all alone in His office, four mean looking men barged into His office and asked for God “I am God” ,said God appraising them from top to toe, they looked like hard core terrorists who would not hesitate to pick up a gun and shoot..
“we have come to collect our money is it ready?”, one of them who appeared to be their leader asked in a rough voice
“where is your boss?”, God asked dodging his question
“its none of your business we have come to collect the money on his behalf so hand it over to us”,the man replied angrily
“but there must be some body who must be the leader of your gang”,asked God
“what do you want to know about him?”
“I want to know to whom I am giving so much money, I have a right to know his name”
“replied God
“his name is Viper he is more dangerous then the snake after whom he has been named, if he bites some one the man wont even have time to ask for water before he dies”.
“and what is your name?” ,asked God
“my name is Salim langda and my friends here are chotu, motu and batli”
“I have never heard of such names before”, God said in an amazed tone of voice
“these names are given to us by our boss, I am called Salim langda because I walk with a limp, this friend of mine is called chotu because he is the youngest in the gang ,the man standing besides him is called motu because he is the fatest recruit and the man standing besides you is called batli because he is always drinking,”. Replied Salim
“why don’t you all take a seat we can then talk in leisure”, said God
“we have no time for talks we are in a hurry, so please give us the mal and we will leave”, said Salim who seemed to be their leader
“what will you have Tea, coffee or a cold drink?
“cut out the pleasantries and do as we say, don’t be sayana and don’t try to play games, give us our mal and let us go”, said motu
“come on now you are taking me wrong I was trying to be friendly to you, if you don’t want to be friends then it is your wish, by the way where does Viper stay, can I talk to him?”, asked God
“he does not stay one place, he keeps on moving therefore we do not know his whereabouts besides we donot have his mobile number so you can not talk to him”, said Salim
“How did your boss come to know about us?”, asked God
“through his agents who roam all over the place, they keep an eye on every one and they give the information to the boss and he decides whom to approach for money”, replied Chotu
“we only approach rich people who donot know what to do with their money”,put in motu
“but who gave you this wrong impression that we are rich, our institution runs on charity”, said God
“enough of this nonsense , cut out this crap and hand us the money otherwise---“, Salim removed the revolver from his pocket and fired in the air ,then looking at Him menacingly he continued, “ if you donot pay us the money immediately, I am going to pump these bullets right through you”
“but why us? There are many rich people who wont mind handing you more money then you have demanded from us”, said God
“we have already milked a lot of people . and now it is your turn”, said batli
“which people have you robbed so far?”, asked God
“we have taken money from the film stars who make more money then they rightly deserve, we have also taken money from film producers, directors and distributors who mint money on trash films which are full of sex and sleaze then we take money from the builders who fleece the buyers by charging them heavily for buildings which contain more sand then cement and who crumble like a pack of cards within a few years. Others who are always on our hit list are the traders who make money through black marketing and then there are the edcucational institutions who turn rich overnight through hefty
Donations and last on the list are swami’s and sanyasis”
“why swami’s and sanyasis?”. Asked God perturbed,
“because these charlatans have become stinkingly rich, richer then every one else in this world They have huge ashrams, trusts and muths which are given exemption from income tax therefore they are enjoying best of both the worlds, They are fooling God by praising Him and giving discourses on Him to help people discover their inner potential through the teaching of Bhagvat Gita and thereby they are ensuring their place in heaven, the gullible people who are in the grip of stress and misery believe them and turn their disciples and shower them with money and other luxuries, and these corrupt so called saints stay in the lap of luxury in the company of wine and women”, said Salim
“but a person who has turned a sanyasi , sadhu or swami has to live a very frugal life , he has to survive on alms, he should live in solitary confinement dwelling on God and very rarely he meets people to pass on his enlightened thoughts”, said God
‘ those are bygone days, but these days these rascals in the garb of swami’s and sadhu’s aspire for lakhs of devotees, because they know the more popular they become , the more money will land into their coffers, all holy men want to appear onTV channels to get as much exposure as possible and for this they pay lakhs of rupees to the TV channels for only half an hour. These fake guru’s have also employed professional publicists who try to promote them on every channel for a price. The best business today is to become a God man learn a little of holy scriptures, hire time on a popular channel and start giving sermons and within a relatively short time you will have your purse over flowing with money fancy cars, mansions and regular trips to fancy and exotic locations throughout the world,” said chotu
“we always target people who make money without working hard to earn it”, said Salim
“but we work hard and use the money to help educate and give shelter to poor and the needy we also do many other charitable works, then why have you targeted us?”, asked God
“we don’t know why have you been targeted but since our boss ordered us to take money from you, we are obeying his orders”, replied Salim
“and what do you do with the money?”, asked God
“we use the money to buy arms and ammunitions to destroy our enemies”,replied Motu
“and who are your enemies ?’,asked God
“any one who does not believe in islam is our enemy”.all of them replied in unison
“Allah, Krishna or Christ all are different names of one God ,all religions claim that it is the best religion in the world, but the full creation is created by God and He does not play favourites and He likes all the religions equally, all the paths lead to the same God, but the ways to reach Him are different. God does not require any favours, neither does He want anyone to fight in His name and defend Him and He does not like anyone to drag His name in all the dramas you regularly enact, so stop thinking of religion as some sort of loyalty badge to your creator, God loves everyone with no strings attached , he knows what is in your hearts, you may fight in His name, but He knows very well that you are doing all this to get money and power, you can fool everyone, even yourself but you cannot fool God you have fallen into emotional trap and you have allowed hate to enter your souls, hate as love has to have some emotion to grow on and so you target the non believers who donot beflieve in Allah, the hate has gone so much deep in you that it manifests itself in terrorists killings and vengeance against non-believers whom you term as kaffirs. You have turned into lovers of hate. God has many names and many forms you can worship Him in any form you fancy, everyone has a right to love the religion in which they are born, but it is very wrong to ask others to abandon their religion, the satan residing in your psyche is leading you away from Gods territory into his territory and therefore he is depriving you from love and warmth of Allah, Each religion is unique in its own way, this uniqueness is created by God so that each person finds the best path for himself, but fighting in the name of religion will never take you close to Him, if you really want to be close to Him then fight to remove hunger, poverty, misery and unhappiness from this world, this will make your life a shining example of loving and being loved.God measures you in life with how much joy you have spread around you and it is given back to you thousand fold in leaps and bounds, We are all born with certain dreams and with these dreams we can either make or mar our happiness, if you tread a wrong path you will be living a horrific dream and if you walk on the right path you will enjoy a lovely dream. All you need to do is to revert back to the teachings of Quran and the prophet known for his love and peace, its time to give up the hate which has poisoned your body and bathe in the shower of love “ said God
There was pin drop silence in the room for some time, then the silence was broken by Salim, “we are hardened criminals, can we change ourselves and turn over a new leaf”
“you have to develop a belief in yourself”. Said God, ”firm belief that you can without a shadow of doubt change to be a better person in life, virtually every person has a capacity to change and do wonderful things in his life, but the greatest stumbling block is doubt in ones capacity, Many on this earth have high hopes, aspirations and dreams but suddenely doubts creep in to undermine your abilities and effectiveness, if you believe that you want to change your path from crime to goodness then your feelings will become your reality, once you have clearly decided on the type of person you want to become, you will have already taken a major first step in developing new beliefs , inorder to introduce your new beliefs into your life you have to discipline yourself to act according to your new feelings If you begin to act like the person you want to be, you will actually adopt the values, the characteristics and qualities of that person and they will become a permanent part of your personality”, said God
“I am fed up of this life of crime, there is no peace in our minds, if there is no peace within us how can there be peace in our families, peace in our society, peace between nations? you spend trillions of dollars and millions of hours building beautiful buildings theatres, hospitals and churches but the terrorists bomb these centers to ashes within a moment, you can spend millions of rupees on making your city beautiful but if there are enemies roaming around they will smash every thing to smithereens , but there is no joy in our jobs and we find no joy in our success because after every success we are miserable inside our mind is in turmoil for our achievement is built on human misery”,said Salim
“your talks have opened our minds to the futility of the crime ,no longer we want to continue with this life in which we have no guarantee of our tomarrow”, said Batli, “we live from moment to moment not knowing when an enemies bullet will fell us, we can not have the enjoyment of a family life, we are living on an edge, from now on we want to live our lives like all of you- a happy and a contented life with out a care in the world”
“what about your boss will he let us go so easily”, asked God
“he has to “, replied Salim, “we have worked for him faithfully and honestly since we were knee high, Putting our lives in jeopardy we lived for him but now we want to live for ourselves”
“I have heard that in your profession , you can walk in with your own consent, but you can not leave till you are dead”, said God
“you are right sir, but we have decided to leave the life of crime and nothing can change our minds now, we want to live with you in these peaceful surroundings and work with you”
“but---------“,God did not know what to reply
“no buts”,said Salim,”you have opened our minds and you have taught us that there is one God with different names we can pray to Krishna in hindi, Allah in Arabic and Jesus in English and all will be heard by the same God so why fight in the name of religion if there is only one religion of love and peace, you have to give us shelter and protection otherwise we will all fast unto death”,
Just then Najma appa accompanied by her husband and doctor Mohammed made an entrance “who are these men and what are they doing here?”, Najma asked God in a concerned voice
God smiled and replied”these men had come to collect their ransom but suddenly they have undergone a change of heart and now they have decided to put an end to their criminal activities and live an honest and peaceful life here with us”
“we can not allow hard core criminals to stay with us in our institution”, said Njma,’s husband
“don’t worry about them, I will take their responsibility , they will be of great help in maintaining the security of our institution”, replied God
“I can not have trust in them”, said Mohammed
“you don’t have trust in them because you think once a criminal always a criminal, but there are instances when criminals have had a great change of heart and over night they have turned into great saints. There is the example of great sage Valmiki who was hard core criminal and overnight from criminal he turned into a sage and went on to write the great epic Ramayana”, said God
“but God they can not disassociate themselves easily from their past, past always follows you faithfully like a shadow darkening your path”, said Najma
“believe me there past will never come before them again, they have recognized the futility of a lascivious life and now they aspire to turn over a new leaf, and it is our duty to help them to achieve their goal, they will now pour the entire wealth of their capacity into the work they will be now doing, every creature on this earth is born with a higher and a lower nature, most of the time the higher nature forgets its own divinity and starts identifying with its lower nature and therefore men come to sorrow, misery and unhappiness. Men who turn away from their higher divinity, get knocked about and are at the mercy of their vasnas, such people are kicked about here and there like summer clouds and they can never fulfill their aims in life.With unfulfilled lives they get tossed about like many fallen leaves in gusty wind without any peace. All these days they were at the mercy of their lower nature, but now their higher nature has overcome their lower nature therefore they should be welcomed with open arms and taught to pray and then you will see the magic, Prayer will give rise to faith and this will give birth to love, love will bring peace and when they are peaceful within it will radiate to all the those around them bringing peace to their relations, peace to their friends, peace to their families and this will start a circle of peace which will ultimately bring peace to the communities, nations and the whole world”, said God
“if you are so sure of them then we will listen to you and employ them”, said Mohammed. He summoned a peon and asked him to show the four men their living quarters, when they had left the room, Najma said to God, ”.although we are keeping them with us but still I am not convinced, they are very dangerous sinners, they may harm us”
“I am well aware that they are dangerous and extremely dangerous sinners but Sin is a self-inflicting , insulting and degrading act which brings unlimited sorrow in a sinners life, but these people have resolved to change themselves, none of the waves in the ocean can rise, nor stay, nor ultimately reach anywhere but the ocean, in the same way not many people can remain totally divorced from their higher nature. Sin is not the nature of man, it is only the tarnish that diminishes the brilliance of his higher self due to the error of judgement on his part. He is called a sinful person on whom his body makes the heaviest demands ,in such a person the body enslaves his life and therefore he spends all his life in chasing his sensual desires which digs the grave of his peace and happiness, but these four people are eager to start a new life of meritorious actions and these actions will create new impressions and in the long run the patterns of their sins will be wiped out and new divine actions will be created in them”, said God
“but how did these hardened criminals suddenly had a change of heart?”, asked Najma again
“it is a law of life”, said God” that when one full of hatred approaches you, he can fill up your mind with hatred, but if some one approaches you with sincere love then even your bitterest enemy will be forced to reflect nothing but love towards you, in this world we are never in a comfortable situation, we are always agitated with worry, we are always thinking that by changing our situation we will overcome our mental agitations and our worries will disappear, but it is the nature of the material world that we can not be free from worry and anxiety, our dilemma is that we are always trying to find a solution to our problems, but we can never find a perfect solution to our problems. Even if I had given into their demands, our problems would have not ended, seeing us bowing before their demands, they would have been encouraged to make more and more demands with the result we would have reached the brink of depression so the best thing was to change their attitude with sincere love and be free from the problem facing us”.
“but this miracle only you can perform, some times I have a feeling that you are God come in the form of a human being”, said Mohammed
“only you can perform this miracle, we can never convert even a single person to our point of view”, said Najma’s husband
“you can”, replied God, “have faith in yourself and unlimited love in your heart and then you too can perform miracles. I will tell you a story-lord Buddha had a cousin who was very jealous of him because of his popularity, one day he caught hold of an elephant and made him drunk and left him loose on Buddha, but seeing him drunk he felt nothing but pity and love for the animal, so strong was his feeling of love that the raging animal got the same spark lit in his heart and humbly he lay down at Buddha’s feet, this tells you that the power of love is so great that not only human beings but also animals can come under its grip”

That night when God was going to His quarters He found all four of them standing near the mogra and rose trees with eyes closed reveling in the fragrance permeating the atmosphere, God walked to where they were standing and asked them,”aren’t you happy to be alive?”
They opened their eyes and looked at him,” it is because of you sir that today we are enjoying this heavenly atmosphere, these trees with their beautiful blooms are full of magic, I am entranced by this magic, I have never seen such beauty in my life before”, said batli
“neither have we”, repeated the others, “we have “, repeated the others “from the very beginning of our lives we have only seen misery, pain, hatred death and destruction but now we feel life couldn’t get better and today we have come to know what happiness and peace means, it’s the most beautiful feeling in the world”
‘happiness is internal and not external, said God “if you are happy in your mind , even if you have nothing to call your own even then you are happy, happiness becomes your second nature. Life is short and to be happy you should always move on the right path then you will enjoy life, enjoy every moment of your life, savor every precious moment God has given you, remember enjoyment is free and right in front of you and it is upto you to grab it with both your hands or let it go”, He smiled and left them to ruminate on what He had jusy said
In the beginning the four of them would get restless and have violent fights with each other, once or twice they even walked away , but they would return and get back to their work ,Najma would always tell God that He had done a grave mistake by giving them shelter, but God would reply sagely that these were their teething troubles and God was right, very soon the four of them took to their new life as fish takes to water.Seeing them happy and blooming in their new environment, Goddess Laxshmi erased from their minds and the mind of their boss Viper complete memory of each other so that four of them lived a happy and peaceful life.

WHEN GOD WALKED THE EARTH CHAPTER 38
God saves a goat from being slaughtered

Since Bakri idd was only a few days away Dr Mohammed decided to buy the best goat available, he proceeded to a mandi and purchased a handsome white goat .The goat was pompous and arrogant, everything common place was below him and the lesser creatures in the school like stray cats and dogs were not worth his attention. Whenever any of them crossed his path, he would walk away with the toss of his head. Every day he was taken for a walk in the garden by a special attendant which was appointed for him. The lesser creatures were viewed with disdain “ugh”, he would think to himself, “look at these creatures eating from a smelly dustbin and drinking from dirty puddles “, thinking about his lavish meals consisting of a luscious variety of fruits and vegetables. God himself fed him with his own hands and soon he had become the favorite of every one in the school On the day of the festival Mohammed bathed himself and after donning crisp, perfumed clothes went to the idgah to perform the morning namaz.When he returned the local butcher was waiting for him with a cruel looking knife ready to sacrifice the goat .,the goat was bedecked in all the finery and as he looked at the knife a shiver ran through his body, he started pespiring and his throat went dry, somehow he felt this was his last day on earth. Mohammed called God and all the inmates to witness the sacred ceremony. The goat looked at God with pleading eyes, somehow the goat felt He was the one who could save him from his cruel fate, ”what are you doing Mohammed you are killing an innocent dumb creature to appease God, God can never be happy with flesh and blood of bullocks, rams, lambs, goats or other beasts, he will never accept the prayers of people whose hands are stained with the blood of these innocent creatures. God loves all his creation equally wether he is a man, beast or a bird, then how can He accept flesh and blood as offerings at His alter?”, asked God”
“you are absolutely right” said Najma” we should not offer these dumb and helpless creatures as offerings, instead we should burn our bad habits like anger, pride, hatred and greed and offer them to the creator and become kind, good and peace loving so that we become worthy of His love.
“you pray to God for mercy, love and justice and yet torture and kill His other creations. All creation is His children and He is considered the supreme father. A father may have many children some intelligent and some not, some clever and some not so clever and some completely dumb but that does not mean that He will allow His less intelligent and dumb children to be killed and devoured by the more intelligent ones. He does not sanction the killing of winged creatures, mammals and animals, He has given for every man and beast on earth, every fowl of air and every thing which creeps upon earth and every where, where there is life herbs, fruits, grains, vegetables and nuts to eat and nourish themselves, but he has not provided anyone with flesh to eat. He who kills any living being brings upon himself Gods wrath for not only humans but He has endowed all the living creatures with mental powers and with senses, passions, appetites, memories and judgments”, said God
“from now on we will cease to sacrifice living beings for the satisfaction of our bodily needs, instead we will celebrate this great festival with the other wonderous foods God has created for us”, said Mohammed then he asked the butcher to leave and gave orders to the cook to prepare special spread of vegetarian fare.The goat was so over come with emotion on seeing the butcher leave that he went and wound himself around Gods legs.
God bent down and patted his back lovingly which conveyed to him that from now on he need not worry for himself, God was there to take care of him

God was happily preoccupied with the day to day running of the school, but at the back of His mind He had a strong urge to revisit the Andaman and Nicobar islands,when He had left, He had a feeling that no human could clean up the mess, if some one had to tidy up where would they start, everything lay in ruins , nature had wiped out every thing with one swipe. After three months of dithering, God was once again on the launch which took Him to His destination. The sea looked calm and beautiful, the azure water lapped at the shore and the sand shone in the sun like molten gold. The undulating land was dotted with ruiens which were over grown with roots of trees, there were deers grazing peacefully nearby, The remnants of the great disaster could be seen in the ruiens of hospitals, houses, schools and specially the church high up on the hillock, there was the pew,the cross all intact but without a roof , God went back in time and He could see the priest giving his Sunday sermon, the people busy cooking their Sunday meals, some playing others swimming. He walked further inside and saw men busily occupied with cleaning and mending the devastated village, He came to know that for many days following the disaster no one could think of lighting a fire in their homes, there was no home, no desire to eat and live, but no man can go hungry and thirsty for long the will to survive is inbuilt in all the living creatures, therefore everyone tried to forget their grief and started rebuilding their lives.Many still hankered after their old lives, everyone wanted everything they had lost-the smiling husbands, the naughty children. Everyone taught himself to live all over again and to build his life over the ashes of his life.
Many men and women came forwards as volunteers to help people who had lost every thing their house ,their families they trained orphans and homeless with diffeent types of work so that they would earn, live and eat People were divided into small groups some were taught to mend fishing nets, others were taught to stitch, make toys and other handicrafts. Each group had a teacher who taught them the skills needed to survive. Not only able bodied but people who had been disabled were also being taught. The blind were being taught to sing, dance, stitch and cook, God could see that these sightless people were enjoying the appreciation they were getting for learning the skill. Some people who had lost their limbs were moving around on crutches helping people to mend their houses. A woman who had broken her hip bone was going around in a wheel chair teaching men the art of painting with their feet since they had lost both their arms in the disaster What He saw was most amazing –the spirit of survival was so strong that they had over come all odds, on every side a human being was surrounded by disease, death and disaster , at every moment he had to face uncertainity and calamity but he had the courage and the confidance to survive each disaster, He rose like a phoenix from his ashes braver and stronger ,He felt very pleased and honored to have created the human race, quietly He bowed down to the mans courage and bravery, truly man was a miracle of His creation.

WHEN GOD WALKED THE EARTH CHAPTER 37
God releases a soul from the ties of this earth and sends her on her onward journey

God had his living quarters in the secluded corner of the school grounds ,since He did not want to burden Himself on others, He did all His work Himself ,so much so that He even cooked His own food. The food was so deliciously prepared that no one could resist its appetizing aroma and wonderful taste. Goddess Laxshmi was a regular at His table and many times she was accompanied by the other denizens of heaven who too were eager to taste the ambrosia prepared by the creator himself every person who visited His house was treated as God and given the highest respect and love, even if He Himself had to miss eating , He would make sure that He fed His guest well ,before eating food ,God offered food to Goddess Anapoorna-the giver of foods and thanked her for gifting Him a wonderful array of delicious food for His table ,two eyes to feast on the bounty ,hands to eat the food ,and mouth to savor it.
As usual one day after offering His prayers to Goddess Anapoorna,God went into kitchen to mix the offering in the remaining food before eating ,to get her blessings ,He was amazed at what He saw. All the utensils were licked clean of every trace of food ,completely stumped ,God stood rooted to the spot ,then He rationalized that perhaps an animal had sneaked in and had eaten the food, nothing happened for a week and then once again when God went to fetch the food ,He found every single utensil empty ,He could not fathom what was happening ,was some one having access to His house without His knowledge? When He narrated the incident to Goddess Laxshmi and His doubts about some one entering the house without His knowledge ,Goddess replied “ my lord how is it possible to enter the house when all the doors and windows are latched from within”,
“then what do you think is happening? Asked God
“I think some denizens of heaven are playing pranks on you” ,replied the Goddess
“may be you are right”, God said in a uncertain tone
Once again every thing was fine for about a week ,then once again the vessels were all empty and upturned on the floor ,the pranks were going too far for His liking ,therefore He decided to catch the thief red handed. He knew that the thief visited His kitchen every Sunday ,therefore the following Sunday ,God hid Himself behind the kitchen door. One hour passed ,then two hours passed and still there was no sign of the thief. God was feeling very tired and hungry ,He was about to give up ,when He heard noises from the kitchen ,slowly He crept out from behind the door and walked into the kitchen. He came upon a young and a beautiful woman sitting cross-legged on the floor and eating hungrily from out of the vessels, He looked at her in wonder. Who was she? From where had she come? Was she from this earth or some other planet ? who are you and from where have you come?”, God asked her at last The woman just ignored Him and kept on eating ,after she had finished eating every morsel of food ,she wiped her face clean,then looking at Him she said “now you can ask me whatever you want?’
“how did you get inside?”
“I can go anywhere I want ,I donot require locked doors to stop me ,I am formless ,I have lost my body in a car accident”
“but why have you come here?”, questioned God
“one day I was feeling very hungry and I was looking out for some food when I came upon this place and the aroma of your food was so heavenly that I could not resist the urge to taste it and once I tasted it I knew I had to eat every thing , I ate and I ate and soon every thing was over ,your food appeases my hunger for one whole week and therefore every Sunday I come here to satisfy my craving for food”
“since your body is dead how is it you are still on earth?,asked God
“I myself do not know why I am left behind whilst my friend was taken on his onward journey”, replied the girl
“how did you lose your body?”, asked God
“I was born with a golden spoon ,I had every thing on a platter , but unfortunately for me I fell into bad company and therefore I went on a wrong path ,I began drinking heavily ,smoking and taking drugs. I frequented discos and night clubs where I searched for a new partner daily to satiate my bodily hunger, One day as usual I had gone to a night club in search of a new hunk ,we both lived it up that night ,by the time the fun was over ,both of us were heavily drunk and in that state he drove the car. Driving through the highway at alarming speed he banged into a tree with the result the car tuned turtle and was engulfed in flames and we both were charred beyond recoginition. My friend was taken away by the angels of death but left me behind saying they had no orders to take me with them since my time had not yet arrived to go to the other world .I was left in the lurch ,neither could I enter my charred body, neither could I go any where else , there is no place for me either on this earth or in other world ,why am I chosen to suffer in such a way?”, she asked God in a plaintive voice
Here was a young woman who did not exist in actual terms and yet she existed with out any identity ,death for every being was the end of ones existence ,but to find one self reduced to a shadow of one self is worst then any suffering,God felt extremely sorry at her predictment “I wish I can give you back your body but I can not ,only Yogmaya can help you to come out of this situation ”God summoned Yogmaya and she immediately appeared before Him,”why is this girl not taken on her onward journey ,why has she been left behind on this earth to become a ghost?”.,asked God
“my lord her life has not yet ended therefore we can not take her”,replied Yogmaya
“then why has she been killed?”. Questioned God
“its her own fault that she finds herself in this impossible situation ,she put her life in the hands of a drunken man who was destined to die in an accident and with him she also lost her body in the accident”, replied Yogmaya
“now how can you help her?”, asked God
“I really have no idea”,replied Yogmaya
“if you don’t help me ,I am going to live here with Him ,I like Him and His company very much ,I suddenly feel different,I nolonger feel bad or grieve about losing my body ,instead of roaming here and there aimlessly I will stay with Him”,said the girl
“please do some thing for her Yogmaya ,I really don’t want her here ,when the students see her loitering about ,the word will soon spread that this place is spooked with the result the students will start leaving this institution .I love this place ,I have given this place so much attention and love I do not want it to come to nought ,so please for my sake help her”, God requested Yogmaya
Your order is my command my lord I will do my best to help her”, Yogmaya was quiet for a while thinking of a way to help the girl and then she said ,”because of her karma of her previous birth she was born into a wealthy family ,but her karmas in this birth are very bad ,she had imbibed all the traits of a way side bitch therefore I can give her birth again as a bitch”,
“but how can you make me an animal when I have risen in my evolutionary process and become a human being?”, questioned the girl
“you carry a wrong impression that once a man reaches the platform of a human life ,it never goes down to animal life again ,if you behave and act like an animal then after your death you will be degraded to an animal whose traits you have imbibed .From here you have again to elevate yourself with good deeds to come back once again in the form of a human being. therefore you should always lead a pious and a pure and a righteous life otherwise there is no guarantee that human being will always be reborn as a human being” ,said Yogmaya
“please help me” ,the girl beseeched God ,”I don’t want to be born as a bitch, I hate dogs ”,when God made no reply ,her voice turned stubborn and she said, ”I prefer to stay with you in this formless form then to be born as a road side bitch”
“I don’t know wether I should interfere”, God replied in an uncertain tone “I will help you but you must give me your solemn promise that in your new birth as a human being you will be good ,kind and honest person who will enact pious deeds”
“I give you my solemn promise”.
God then turned to Yogmaya and addressed her, “since she has many more years left for her sojourn on earth, it is only fair that you give her birth again as a human being, but since her karmas were very bad give her birth in poverty so that she has to struggle to make her ends meet”
“anything is better then being born a bitch “,said the girl.God took the girls hand in His and both walked out of His house and into the open ground,He left her hand and turned back alone and as her soul moved further away from earth she experienced a wispy cloudiness around herself and then sudden brilliance and she saw heavenely figures coming towards her to guide her on her onward journey and into the next birth

,WHEN GOD WALKED THE EARTH ChAPTER 36
God visits Andaman and Nicobar islands and is caught in a sunami

God was going through a travel magazine when He read about the Andaman and Nicobar islands Nicobar islands are a part of Indian ocean and comprise of twenty-two islands of various sizes ,the largest being Great Nicobar ,the nicobar are a part of a great island created by a great collusion that lifted the Himalayas and created a long arch of islands including Andaman and nicobar islands.These islands are said to have been created thousands of years ago .The idyllic emerald green islands are an ocean of paradise of which dreams are made of-palms trees swaying in the gentle breeze circling pristine white sands and the beautiful sound of azure waves crashing on the corals, floating in splendid isolation in the bay of Bengal these islands are blessed with unforgettable sights.
On reading about the breathtakingly beauty of the islands with its picturesque extravaganza ,God decided to pay a visit to these islands .Goddess Laxshmi who could forsee into the future knew that very soon the islands would turn into ghost islands having nothing but poignant ruins with its beauty completely shattered ,tried her best to dissuade God from visiting them ,but He was adamant and so He went to spend some days on the beautiful islands.
As He got off the launch He was stunned at the beautiful sight which greeted Him ,the islands were epitome of beauty which were crafted out of fantasy. Gossamer smoke rose from a deeply green undulating landscape and a trail of clouds enveloped the landscape.
.The mesmerizing mist lent a smoke screen effect to the place making it look mystical , under the cover of dense forests ,exotic birds sang their lovely songs amongst an amazing variety of multi-hued wild flowers. Breathtakingly bewitching it was an oasis of calm and peace. God immediately fell in love with the place ,God hired a quaint little cottage by the beach and He spent His days swimming or walking on the beach with the waves kissing His feet, some times He would hire a glass bottomed boat , as the boat sped on the azure waters, He would feast His eyes on the fish and the corals in exquisite colors and exotic shapes which were visible from the glass bottom
Once He also came across a massage parlor ,the natural essential oils ,the gentle sound of music and the serenity of the most incredible sea view made Him go inside the parlor ,inside He met half clad women who assured Him that after taking the massage He would be relieved of stress and,His body would be rejuvenated and energized ,they were about to take off His clothes ,when He hastily retreated’
Another time, He came across an eatery from which camel delicious aromas which were irresistible ,He entered and found a corner seat ,immediately the waiter appeared before Him and handed Him the menu card-the card contained succulent steaks ,juicy burgers and aromatic desserts and frothy drinks ,when God ordered some of these delicacies, He couldn’t even touch them because they were meant for people who were carnivorous by nature ,the food which was being advertised as a great culinary experience created to satisfy even the most adventurous taste was completely obnoxious in His eyes and therefore He left the restaurant without touching any food served to Him

God was happily spending His days in perfect bliss , when one day as God was sleeping His blissful sleep ,Goddess Laxshmi appeared before Him,” where were you all these days devi ,I was missing you”,
“since you are on this earth some on has to carry on your work in your absence and I was doing all your work and since you are missing me why don’t you come back, I am sad to say my lord but I am getting tired of all the work I am doing ,you better come back soon”
“don’t tell me you are feeling jealous at seeing me enjoying myself” ,said God in a teasing manner,
“I am not the jealous kind besides heaven is much more beautiful then these islands” ,replied the Goddess
“you are absolutely right but although ,heaven is beautiful it is such a dull and drab place very quiet and very proper ,but here I get to know so many different things , meet diverse people ,see so many exotic places , I cannot enjoy these pleasures in heaven”,
”these pleasures are created for only men born on this earth” ,said the Goddess
“therefore I have come on this earth to experience these pleasures” was Gods reply
“my lord you have come here to see the world , but now you are stuck on these islands ,don’t you want to see other places which have more beauty then these islands?”,
“I am enjoying my stay here devi” ,replied God
“you may not be able to enjoy this place for long, clouds of bad fortune are hovering over this island” ,Goddess said in a worried voice.
“I can look after myself devi, now can I go to swim?” ,asked God ,without waiting for her reply God changed into a bathing trunk . Seeing His muscular body and rippling muscles Goddess looked at Him in awe .’you have chosen a very handsome body my lord” ,she was full of admiration
“no doubt I have chosen a handsome body but to keep up its beauty I have to look after it very carefully ,I eat only healthy vegetarian food and mik and milk products ,fruits ,grains , and nuts. These foods increase the duration of life ,give purity of mind and bodily strength . Daily I engage myself in yoga and meditation and I sleep atleast seven hours per day besides regularly I go swimming and walk for a couple of hours daily ,I am now going for swimming if you so desire you can give me company” then looking at her from top to toe ,He said,”but you can not swim in this costume , you have to wear a swim suit like the girls on the beach”
“lord the stay on the earth has turned you very naughty” ,Goddess said accusingly, ”devi I am not being naughty I am just speaking what is right,I am leaving now” .

No sooner He stepped out of His cottage , when nature turned over on its side ,the earth started shaking and rumbling ,scarcely had the prolonged rumbling of the massive earthquake died away , then the first mind boggling phenomena occurred ,and then the sea like an angry giant python spewing venom started gathering in height and volume as it surged towards the beach ,the first wave which crashed on the shore was no more then three feet high ,the wave which followed it was five meters high , and the last wave to attack the shore was a gigantic wall of water all of ten meters in height .All hell broke loose,the surging water picked up houses , boats ,people ,animals ,massive trees and anything which came its way ,sweeping them away from the land into the sea. God was helplessly carried away into the jungle and left to hang on the limb of a giant tree thirty feet high from the ground. As He looked down ,He saw the giant rollers effortlessly uprooting massive trees and sweeping them away into the sea with many a human and beast sticking to them like macabre trophies.
Goddess Laxshmi appeared before God and said in a terse voice,” what are you doing up there why don’t you come down?”
“cant you see the gushing waters ,if I come down I will surely drown”,
“have you forgotten that you are God? If you can not save yourself then how will you save all these creatures who are praying to you to help them?” ,asked the Goddess
“you seem to have forgotten that I am in a human body besides I have no powers with me , today I am as helpless as other beings”
“alright my lord ,give me your hand”, as soon as His hand touched her hand they landed in a safe place far away from the deluge
From there He surveyed the destruction ,the terrifying sunami had caused in the place. As far as the eye could see ,everything lay in ruiens ,the fishing boats tethered to the jetty hung vertically suspended on their ropes, Dead bodies lay scattered all over the place ,the old and infirm ,the children and women ,the men and the animal ,all who had tried to escape were cruelly cut off by cliffs ,buildings and trees against which the helpless victims were repeatedly battered by the deadly waters. In the middle of this bedlam there were a few survivors who had lost their limbs and sight and who lay on the ground groaning in pain and fear .At some places huge corpses of trees lay prone on the ground ,at other places coral reefs as high as double decker buses were ripped out of the sea and thrown inland and millions of fish thrown out with them were wriggling for survival in the sands,
Buses ,cars ,tankers ,rickshaws all lay around twisted out of shape ,the whole atmosphere was permeated with a nauseating smell which indicated the presence of innumerable dead bodies of both men and animals

God was surprised to see so much destruction around himself ,it seemed only a moment ago when He had stepped out of the cottage to go for a swim ,the sun had been high in the sky and most of the people had been awake and were going about their work ,some were attending to their morning ablations ,others were fishing ,playing foot ball ,preparing meals ,swimming or getting ready to go to the church ,no one had the slightest inclination that within moments every thing would be wiped off from the face of the earth ”why this wanton destruction of life and property devi?”, God questioned in a sad voice
“I have no idea ,I will summon Yogmaya she is the best person to ask because she writes everyone’s destiny ”,before she had finished speaking, Yogmaya stood before them with folded hands” you remembered me my lord” ,she asked in a humble voice
“yes Yogmaya”, said God” why has this wide spread destruction taken place ,why has mankind been punished so cruelly?” then continuing in a lighter vein He said ,”do you require labor to make a bridge ,a dam or a palace in heaven, I have always noted that when ever you want any work to be done ,you kill numerous humans to do your dirty work for you because denizens of heaven are too lazy to do any manual work”
“I know my lord that you are cutting a joke with me but believe me I have no hand in this wantom destruction, I think this destruction is due to the anger of sea God and mother Cow” No sooner their names were taken that they made their appearance and bowed before them in reverence
“why did you do this?”, God questioned them in stern voice
“my lord since the beginning of this creation I have been standing on my legs whilst the earth rotates on my horns”, said the mother cow, I try not to move even an inch no matter what the provocation because with every moment I make, the earth starts shaking and earthquake takes place ,I not only carry the full burden of the earth ,but my progeny supplies milk which is nector to humans, it is a perfect food for everyone right from birth to death ,but man is ungrateful instead of being grateful to what we are giving him, he cruelly slaughters us for money ,for food ,for clothing ,and for footwear. Cows are one of the mans most valuable resources of food but man is very greedy ,in his greed to get more and more milk us he treats us very cruelly he administer to us a variety of harmones ,tranquilizers and antibiotics which are very hazardous to our health ,my lord a few years ago the white man was afflicted by a rare disease which they called mad cows disease because in their twisted minds they came to the conclusion that the disease was being transmitted through cows to men and they started slaughtering thousands of innocent cows to be rid of the dreadful disease ,they kill so many animals ,birds ,and beasts saying that we have no souls so they can serve us at their tables, Is it correct that we have no souls?”,
“every living being has a soul , here is a proof-all creatures created by me eat to survive ,man too eats to survive ,man drinks water ,other creatures too drink water ,man takes rest by sleeping ,other creatures also sleep ,man defends himself in times of danger ,other creatures too defend themselves ,man has sex to bring forth children ,other creatures too have sex to have children . Mans blood is red ,every living being has red blood ,man dies and the full creation of mine dies ,no one on this earth is immortal .,when so many similarities are there between men and my other creations it is an indication that every one born on this earth has a soul,who ever kills for food or pleasure will be be barefit of human form in his next birth and he will be born as an animal and he will be killed by the same animal he had killed in his last birth .He is eating the flesh of the animal who will in his next birth be eating his flesh” ,said God
“you have provided men with a rich supply of wonderful foods which offers them delicious banquets which involve no slaughter and bloodshed .There are innumerable delicious variety of fruits and vegetables ,nuts ,grains ,and seeds , infact the full world is loaded with these nourishing foods still men hankers after flesh foods .All your creation is endowed with certain natural rights that can not be taken away ,why don’t we have the right of life and liberty like men,why should we be killed by them ,lord you will never believe how they put animals to death ,the cruelty with which they are slaughtered is seen to be believed .Screaming animals are hoisted into the air by their feet and moved through the factories of destruction and death through mechanical convenyer systems, still alive they are skinned and their flesh chopped to pieces”, revealed the mother cow.
“my lord” spoke the Goddess ,”you have created for humans such a lavish supply of fruits and vegetables ,herbs ,nuts and grains and yet they are not satisfied they are eating birds ,fish ,and animals . I wonder what accident brought to his mouth the flesh of a dead creature. How can his eyes endure the sight of a wailing and a crying animal being torn asnder limb by limb , how can his nose bare the stench of blood and gore ,how can he drink the blood of harmless and tame creatures. Even beasts like horses ,cows , bullocks and elephants live on vegetation. The man whom you created in your own image has turned worst then a beast ,his body is polluted ,it is the grave yard of animals and birds he has killed ,if he can deprive the other creatures their right to live ,he who does not value life ,he himself does not deserve to live”
“you are right mother”, said the cow,” I bore everything patiently and then every thing got out of hand when they started indiscriminate killing of birds because they felt they were giving them bird flu.They killed the pigeons first ,then they put the fowls in tempos in which they were crammed together with no breathing space and no food and water ,most of them died on the way to the slaughter house ,when I heard this news ,I could not believe my ears how could man be so cruel and wicked? I shook my head in disbelief and the earth too started shaking and then all hell broke lose”
“my lord when the earth started heaving” ,said the sea God ”my waters became agitated and it started running haywire, I could have controlled the water ,but I had my account to settle with the cruel man ,besides fish they hunt for crocodiles ,whales each and every type of fish to decorate their dining tables ,they pollute my water with sewage from various slaughter and industrial houses which brings untimely death to many creatures living in my waters .Man is killing and maiming dumb and innocent creatures who have no sting or teeth even to retaliate and defend themselves He has no sympathy or pity for other living creatures he is violent ,cruel and evil ,he is full of misery and loathing because his mind and heart has become putrid due to eating flesh”
“by living on the flesh of other living beings, man only has brought misery and death upon himself”, said God “every living creature has feelings and every one has a right to life and if man in his greed kills innocent creatures then he brings upon himself war ,pestilence and natural calamities. To control the violence of nature first he has to turn to non-violence”
Just then Gods mobile started ringing ”where are you God we are searching for you every where?”, Mohammed was on the line
“I am at Andaman and Nicobar islands”.”
“how come you reached there?, It was struck by a major disaster this morning,are you safe?’, asked Mohammed
“I am safe don’t worry, I have come out of it unscathed”. Said God
“come back soon we are missing you, take the next flight back”, said Mohammed” if you don’t come back immediately ,I am going to come there personally to pick you ”
“I will try my best to come as soon as possible”. Was Gods reply
“every one in the school is missing you ,without you they are lost ,you have captured every ones heart ,very soon idd is approaching and without you the joy of celebrating the festival will be lost”
“don’t worry my friend I will be there soon” ,replied God, Then He surveyed the surroundings and He saw that every thing was in shambles ,every road was blocked by fallen trees, buildings ,huge boulders and rocks ,there was no way He would be able to go out of this place. “now what will I do?” ,God asked Goddess Laxshmi
“worry not my lord ,I will take you back”, said the Goddess and before He knew it, He found Himself ouside the school gates. As He entered the school He could hear the chanting of vedic mantras on seeing Him all surrounded Him and touched His feet in reverence. “we are thankful to God for bringing you back safely we were so worried about your safety” ,said Najma
“we all are grateful to God for giving you back to us”, said Mohammed ,”every child was praying for your safe return ,this calls for a celebration”, then turning to Najma he addressed her ,”please prepare halwa puri for everyone and special tea for God”
God was highly pleased by the concern shown to Him for His safety. He was happy He had turned everyone of them into loving human beings by dispelling their inner darkness and bringing them out into a lighted path of love ,concern and peace, a lovely smile of happiness played on His lips on seeing them

WHEN GOD WALKED THE EARTH CHAPTER 35
God tries to give life to a greviously injured man but fails in His endeavor

After the incident when God witnessed the killing of an innocent snake ,He kept tossing and turning in His bed ,the horrible sight repeating itself near His eyes, therefore before the break of dawn, He got up, made himself a nice hot cup of tea and switched on the television, Goddess Laxshmi appeared before Him and said.” again the same old tea, how many times in a day do you drink tea my lord”
“may be five times or even more, I do not keep count, any time is tea time for me”,said God.
“you are drinking too much tea ,this might harm your health ”,said the Goddess in a voice full of concern
“why don’t you have a sip devi ,you will forget your amrit ”,invited God extending His cup to her
“no thanks,you enjoy your cup,and by the way what are you watching on the TV”
“I am seeing a report where a man killed his own brother and the man invited his death himself by purchasing the gun and gifting the gun to his brother and the brother used the very same gun to pump bullets in his body”,said God
“why has life become so complicated on this earth?”.questioned the Goddess
“on this earth life should be lived from day to day,no one should analyse it,analyzing it makes it more complicated,every mans today is tomarrow that he worried about yesterday,now take the example of the man who was killed,an astrologer told him that his stars did not augur well for him and that there was a threat to his life,he became worried and he started wearing a bullet-proof vest whenever he stepped out,he was always worried some one will take a snipe at him and therefore he never ventured out much,but death appeared within his house in the form of his own sibling”,said God
“the time of your death has already been written by Yogmaya according to your karmas therefore you can not escape it,even if you hide at the bottom of the ocean,death will find you and claim you”,said the Goddess she sat quietly for a while watching the news on the tv ,then she continued
“he suffered a lot my lord,for twelve days he underwent untold sufferings,the doctors knew that he was a hopeless case from the day first,but they kept on meddling with his organs instead of letting him die in peace”.
“he would have died on the day he was shot”,said Yogmaya making a sudden appearance,”but God did not allow it to happen,”Yogmaya said in a complaining voice
“again you intervened between her and the dying man my lord”,asked the Goddess in accusing voice
“I did, but I couldn’t help it,people were praying desperately in temples,churches and mosques for the mans recovery ,I did not want them to feel that their prayers were not being heard therefore I was trying to mend his organs which were destroyed in the firing””replied God in a sheepish voice
“but you did not succeed”,said the mother Goddess
“no I did not succeed,it is a shame he died,he was a good and ac capable man highly kinowledgable ,very intelligent,very capable and had a great vision”,said God in sad voice
“there is always a replacement for everyone,he must have been a great and a good man but there is always some one else to replace him who can be good if not better then him,besides he himself was very happy to leave his body,because he did not want to live in a wasted body,nobody likes to stay in a broken down house,then how will a soul like to stay and suffer in a broken body ,very soon he will be reborn in a new body and then he will carry forward his unfinished work in his new birth which he had left undone”,said the Goddess
“why did the man have to die at the hands of his own brother whom he loved like his own son? God questioned Yogmaya
“he killed his brother for money”,said Yogmaya
“,till today I have not been able to fathom how man has got so much hatred,selfishness,misery locked in his heart,it is all your fault “,He said looking at Yogmaya accusingly” you write their destiny don’t you?”
“I write their destiny nodoubt my lord,but it is based on their own karmas,in his previous birth the slain man had killed his brother,therefore in this birth the brother took his revenge and this circle of revenge will continue till eternity, unless one of them sees reason and forgives the other for the wrongs he has committed against him”,replied Yogmaya
“do you mean to say that all this mindless killings,tortures and abuses are done as an act of revenge which the human beings are bringing with themselves from birth to birth?”,asked God
“you are right my lord”,said Yogmaya
“what is the remedy how do we free humans from the clutches of this sinful life?”,asked God
“we can not help any human being,the individual himself should recognize the futility of a lascivious life and should himself aspire to move higher up on the ladder of evolution,he should subdue the cravings of his mind and should stop hearing the calls and apetities of the grosser outer world which is the root cause of sin in man” Yogmaya answered ,she was quiet for a moment before continuing,”he is a sinful man in whom the cravings of his body makes the heaviest calls on him,and his body enslaves his mind and all his life is spent in satisfying each of his sensuous desires such a passionate animal life leaves gross impressions on his mind and these impressions decicide the flow of his thoughts,as the thoughts so the actions and the actions deepen the vasnas.To break the vasna-thought-action chain he should start a life of meritorious actions where every thought,every action is dedicated to the divine,by doing this all his negativities are rubbed off from his soul and he starts a virtous life full of peace and happiness,but my lord it takes trillions of years for an organism to evolve from one given form of existence into a higher form of life and therefore it is quite clear that it will take an indefinitely long number of births in different manifestations for a human being to scrape off all the hatred from his soul and become a perfect human being,and unless man can evolve into a perfrct and a good human being till then there will be suicide bombings,assassinations,senseless killings,kidnapping,torture and massacre”
“she is right my lord”,said the Goddess”you can not change a man in a day,it will take many light years for a man to evolve into a good and a kind man,leave them alone,and enjoy your stay on earth without interfering in their karmas”,
“you are right devi”,said God,”from this day I will live my own life and I will let the human beings live their own lives”,
