Well why not? When GOD is the Creator, and when we arecreated to Worship only, then we need to understand the Truemeaning of Worship.

Everything, living ,non living, the dead, the decayed, all MustWorship. The meaning of worship takes a different meaning, for different things, during different times and situations. But in allcases though exible, may have a simple and Fundamental Rule.Coming to the Mother and Infant relationship, it is undisputablethe Mom wants the baby to become a somebody wonderful, andwill do Everything in her Power to make it Happen. Therefore rst key ingredient is communication to see if there is understandingof the Mother's intention and the assistance given is appreciated,

and acted upon. Fortunately in the baby's universe, the world revolves round the Mother and the relationship intensies withgreater care and love, and progress of the understanding with allforms of communication.

However, the Mother will get extremely sad if the infant shows greater affection to somebody else , because she is the one whocares for the infant from the time it was in her womb.

The baby knows the mother even before it opens its eyes itsmother from the Heart Beat of the mother which is so familiar from the Womb Days! Further by its constant connection to the

mother it understands, all its needs are met and cared for by theMother. Then again an infant does not understand, cannot evaluatein normal terms. Yet in recorded History you will never hear of such a thing as the love the child was to someone else! This isbecause the INFANT is so helpless and understands without a

shadow of doubt, that the Mother is the Provider!

Now consider reprimanding the infant/baby? It might cry but themore you reprimand the more the baby will try to come close tothe mother and hug the mother, indicating the onlyunderstanding of what is right and wrong is through themother, and please help to understand, forgive me etc. Weunderstand that the Baby's world revolves around the Mother

and thus it seeks every assistance from its Mother, similar towhat is expected from us from the Creator.Once the Infant grows, slowly the world opens, in all its

dimensions-the good the bad-the unseen-the corrupt-thedetestable.

The infant becomes a child, then what is right is what the Teacher says . Because the teacher has the ability to command the attentionof a group of children and over a short period, she gets a YESfrom every child on what she teaches. Become a Teen , what goesis what they say n do n believe. Being COOL is the inthing. Youget Respect when you are one of them. Rationality, common senseis irrelevant what matters is Cause and Effect. Finally when youare mature you are INDEPENDENT!

But, all our beliefs and decisions are based on the informationavailable, not necessarily what you rationalize andsearch( because you are trained not to do by sheer public

opinion ).Life itself becomes so hectic, that you have virtually given in to the system, and you don't have time for yourself toreect on matters that may be important. You have entered theworld of Deceit. I mean information made available to us isbased on what information that will be Bought, or has specicadvantage to a set of powerful People is what is made available.When you read about Politics, Religious Wars, Advertisements,UN Resolutions, Visa Criteria, Reporting Formats, Information

Ban etc etc, you will understand without bias what I mean.

This is what the Great Masters say why the confusion arises:

Some(false preachers) form their Dharma arbitrarily and fabricate it articially; they advance complex speculations and

imagine that good results are attainable only by the acceptance of their theories ; yet the truth is but one; there are not different truthsin the world. All the Buddhas teach the same truth. They point outthe path to those who go astray. Buddha

Woe to those who make unjust laws, and who issue oppressivedecrees Isaiah 10:1

.. the pen of the scribes is in vain Jeremiah 8:8 Jesus said tothe religious leaders: Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees,

hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, butinside they are full of extortion and self-indulgence. ... Even soyou also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you arefull of hypocrisy and lawlessness (Mat 23:25,28) . For there

shall arise false 'Christs', and false prophets, and shall shew greatsigns and wonders; insomuch that if (it were) possible, they shalldeceive the very lect. Mathew 24:24

(Do not fall in idol worship,) like those who divide their religioninto sects; each party rejoicing with what they have. Quran 30:32

Ironically, they broke up into sects only after the knowledge had

come to them, due to jealousy and resentment among themselves.If it were not for a predetermined decision from your Lord torespite them for a denite interim, they would have been judgedimmediately. Indeed, the later generations who inherited the

scripture are full of doubts . Quran42:14

Those whose intelligence has been stolen by material desiresworship demigods . Ghagwad Geeta 7:20

Judge everybody favorably - the Talmud (Jewish sacred book)

Judaism It is good to see how we can understand GOD through thegrowing up process.

The Love and Care of the Mother- Scientic education-GroupInteraction-External World- Reective Process.When all our needs are met? We forget everything else, other thanwhat is in front of usWhen we are applauded- our actions conrm the Praise ..

forgetting all assistance including those little ones who did thesimple tasks so you could concentrate on the big picture. Youforget your spouse children associates who silently sacriced for you and also suffered!When we suffer or lose something- we look for excuse a scapeGOAT or why should this happen to ME ? While others who arenot GOOD as me having a Good timeWhen devastation is about to strike you remember the Creator andimplore. Once it is avoided we only remember OUR Clevernessor Capacity.

What Scientists say:

Dr. Maurice Bucaille: , a member of the French Academy of Sciences, in his book 'The Bible, the Quran and Science' has to saythe following: The above observation (his own thesis) makes thehypothesis advanced by those who see Muhammad as the author of the Qur'an untenable. How could a man, from being illiterate,become the most important author, in terms of literary merits, inthe whole of Arabic literature? How could he then pronouncetruths of a scientic nature that no other human being could

possibly have developed at that time, and all this without once

making the slightest error in his pronouncement on the subject?06

Stephen Hawking: The whole history of science has been thegradual realization that events do not happen in an arbitrarymanner, but that they reect a certain underlying order, whichmay or may not be divinely inspired. Albert Einstein: Science without religion is lame, religionwithout science is blind.

Nikola Tesla: The gift of mental power comes from God, DivineBeing, and if we concentrate our minds on that truth, we becomein tune with this great power. Alan Sandage (winner of the Crawford prize in astronomy) : "Ind it quite improbable that such order came out of chaos. Therehas to be some organizing principle. God to me is a mystery but isthe explanation for the miracle of existence, why there issomething instead of nothing."

John O'Keefe (astronomer at NASA) : "We are, by astronomicalstandards, a pampered, cosseted, cherished group of .creatures.. ..If the Universe had not been made with the most exacting

precision we could never have come into existence. It is my viewthat these circumstances indicate the universe was created for man to live in."

Arno Penzias (Nobel prize in physics) : "Astronomy leads us to aunique event, a universe which was created out of nothing, onewith the very delicate balance needed to provide exactly the

conditions required to permit life, and one which has anunderlying (one might say 'supernatural') plan."

Vera Kistiakowsky (MIT physicist) : "The exquisite order displayed by our scientic understanding of the physical worldcalls for the divine.

Scientists Speak about DNA

"To put it at its mildest, one may question an evolutionary theoryso beset by doubts among even those who teach it. If Darwinism istruly the great unifying principle of biology, it encompassesextraordinarily large areas of ignorance. It fails to explain some of the most basic questions of all: how lifeless chemicals came alive,

what rules of grammar lie behind the genetic code, how genesshape the form of living things." *Francis Hitching, The Neck of the Giraffe (9182), pp. 108, 117.

Impossible for DNA to Self-produce: It could not come about bychance

Devastating Math Probabilities: Forget the possibility

DNA Barrier Forbids Change: One species could never changeinto another

Vast Information within It: Too much data within each moleculeto permit switchovers

Conclusion:

Not chance, but Someone made DNAHow can we try to understand G O D

I give below the Islamic denitionConcept of God-Quran112:1-4Say He is Allah,who is One.

Allah is eternal.He neither begets, nor is He born.

Nor is there to Him any equivalentThus God is the Creator of all that exists with knowledge of the

past present and future with the ability to change anything.

Thus it is very very clear, that if you try to attribute such a

LORD'S POWER to a created being having FULL Knowlewdge, by the very ability that has been bestowed on us,it will be indeed avery sad situation if we die with such arrogance. May we all be

protected from such stupidity. namely, that ye should remainsteadfast in Religion, and make no divisions therein : to thosewho worship other things than And most of them will not believein God except while setting-up partners . 12:106

"Have you seen him who takes his desires (passion, impulse, lust)for his God? Will you then be a protector over him?" 25:43

Nor would he instruct you to take angels and prophets for Lords

and patrons. What! would he bid you to unbelief after ye have bowed your will (To God in Islam)? 3:80 (But people claim theyare doing nothing wrong)

They take their priests and their anchorites to be their lords inderogation of GOD, and (they take as their Lord) Christ the son of Mary; yet they were commanded to worship but One GOD: thereis no god but He. Praise and glory to Him: (Far is He) from havingthe partners they associate (with Him). 9:31

Meaning worship rabbi and monk :Explained how they took their rabbis and priests besides GOD as lords in the sense that theyobeyed them in what they knew was forbidden by GOD. In other words, these rabbis and monks and priests would forbidsomething, which was made lawful to them by GOD, and theywould obey them in that. Or they would make to them somethinglawful which was forbidden by GOD and they would obey themin that.

On matters that happen on a day to day, it is basic science that weemploy. The car WILL start as many times as you want providedthe equipment is functional. As regards the relationship with theCreator, it is radically different. Firstly he is the Master and not theSlave(car).He knows what is best for us, thus thou we may ask,our request may be delayed, not answered as something better may be given, or something as per His Innite Mercy andKnowledge will happen before our demise. We need tounderstand Life is a Test. Patience and Humbleness may get usgreater reward and better understanding. We need to warnourselves that HE does not need partners, sons or daughters toanswer to our needs.

Understanding G O D is through its attributes- some additional ones are:He is innitely powerful, knowledgeable, merciful,.

Understanding disasters, wars, natural calamities, life deathneeds to be understood in the light of The Purpose of Life
