Gods have feet of Clay

. Whether it is Greek, Eastern mythology or the holy books, the Gods and Goddesses have human frailties. This is why it makes it easier for us to empathize and identify ourselves with these characters and sensibilities. If Jesus was identified as a superman then he couldn’t have been killed. So like Grimm’s fairy tales all these chronicles strive to drive home moral statements. In Hindu philosophy the emphasis is on the earth’s process of transient conservation, which is a result of the continuous cycle of creation and destruction. However in nature we must be careful not to overuse our natural resources at a faster rate than we can replenish them. Wanton destruction of the Amazonian rain forests is a grim reminder that we should not destroy the habitats of the birds, fish, earthworms or even the tiny bacteria which help us keep the ecological balance. The Garden of Eden is a classic example where Adam is warned against yielding to the temptation of biting or consuming more than one can chew or needs. Because in your greed, if you destroy Eden, it will be difficult to build another garden as beautiful. Everything in nature including the sunlight that is beamed at us is designed to absorb and at the same time reflect outwards. Here too the simple philosophy is apparent, what we absorb or take from nature is designed in such a way that we end up reflecting more than what we absorb. This is the true essence of the philosophy of spirituality and science also endorses the phenomena that light color reflections are greater than the absorptions. Our life is a journey in space and time, both symbolic and mythical because the manifestation of the infinite is an incomplete finite. The truth is we can never measure up to the full potential of homo-sapiens until we properly understand; that all of us including God if any are tiny particles of the Universe and its wholeness. Similarly whether it is god or mankind, both will be beyond human comprehension unless we take acceptance of the complexities of humanity. Chaos is the pre-condition for destruction and creativity and even the Gods will not be spared
