And yet there is more subtle evidence. There are thousands of consistent and reputable stories about near-death experiences. There is growing scientific evidence of the power of prayer.
The things combine together in such a way that you must wonder:::
Is there more to life than what we can see ?
"You have to believe in gods to see them ", goes a Hopi Indian saying.
"Every forest is God's garden, a fallen leaf, a life lived ", observed Finnish Voltaire
French philosopher and historian, said it well; " If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent Him."
The fact is, all the major religions of the world teach about Heaven and the existence of an afterlife.
Beliefs aside, one rule applies to everyone -- God is not somewhere out there. God is somewhere inside us. We may seek God by our intellect, but we can only find him with our heart. If you have love and faith, you have God in your heart.
" God is at home, it is we who have gone out for a walk", goes a popular saying.
Get to know your real self and you will learn to treat life as a never- ending dialogue with God.
There is wisdom in what one poet says : " The destiny of a man is to become progressively less human and more humane; less compulsive and more creative ; less instinctive and more intuitive ; less material and more spiritual. Man destiny is to always become more fully divine, "
One thing is clear : God is love. Blessed is the man who finds out which way God is moving and then gets going in the same direction. For just as flowers cannot bloom where there is no water, life cannot bloom where there is no love , and faith, in the heart.
A religious man is a person who holds God and man in one thought at one time, at all times, who suffers harm done to others, whose greatest passion is compassion , whose greatest strength is love and defiance of despair.
