If the answer is “yes” to most of these,

Then perhaps the God you believe in

Is either one that someone else built for you,

or one you crafted yourself.

Whereas, in truth,

It was never meant to be the other way around.

WHAT THEN IS MY GOD?

My God created this कायनात — this vast universe —

And set it in motion with certain laws.

Unyielding. Absolute. Without exceptions or provisos.

IF I follow the path,

I will be blessed.

If I wander off,

I will face the test.

He does not love.

He does not hate.

His justice is impersonal,

Emotionless.

And among His laws,

Worshiping Him is certainly not a Rule. 

For what kind of egoistic God would derive joy

In merely from being worshipped,

While His creation disregards the laws

He Himself has laid down?

Perhaps He exists.

But for sure He is not seeking me.
