Understanding.

On Tuesday, July 2, in a district named Hathras in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, more than 150 people lost their lives due to stampede in a congregation.

According to the information received, a satsang of a baba named Bhole Baba alias Narayan Sakar Hari was going on and after the completion of the satsang, Bhole Baba alias Narayan Sakar Hari Baba said that "After I leave from here, all of you should apply the dust of my feet on your forehead. This will remove all your sorrows and pains".

After listening to this statement, after Baba left from there, there was a stampede among the devotees for the dust of Baba's feet and in this stampede more than 150 people died.

After listening to this sad incident, I have given my feelings the form of a poem. In which I have talked about making people aware of their "understanding".

"Understanding"

People have faith in them,

They have a feeling for them!

This so called Baba is measured in every village!

He himself is ignorant

This is the knowledge he gives to people!

But where has the "understanding" of people gone?

People think that this is God!

He says don't commit sins

But he himself is drowning in the ocean of sins!

He gives the knowledge of religion

And he himself is ignorant of the knowledge of religion!

He says to people,

Your sorrows and pains will go away from you!

Just apply on your forehead

The dust of my feet which are like nectar!

Hearing this, there was a stampede among the devotees

Shouting and throwing dust!

People - women, children and youth

Didn't get the dust of nectar in anyone's hands!

The dust did not touch his hands,

He touched the man of death!

When Baba came to know

He also ran from village to village!

People also came to know

The news reached the officers too

The officers sipped tea

And slowly reached every street!

The dance of death was going on

With Mast-Mridang singing

Bhole Baba Hari-Hari!

Seeing this dance

The officers were also stunned!

They could not "understand" what was this in these dead bodies, brother, Hari-Hari!

When the officers came to their senses

They started searching for Baba!

Baba ran from village to village

Now people had only one demand!

Now Baba should be given death sentence!

But this story will not stop here!

Someone like this will come again,

He will come again and become God!

We will have to change ourselves

We will have to understand ourselves!

Faith is an emotion!

Faith is one thing!

But blind faith, no matter who has it?

That blind faith is a great sin!

The time has come to test them on the touchstone of logic!

Whether Hindu or Muslim,

Sikh or Christian,

these so called Babas are butchers of every religion!

We have to increase our understanding

and tell everyone that these so called

Babas are not protectors of religion,

they just want to eat religion like a predator!

Removing their lies,

let the truth remain

and tell them that let the limits of your knowledge remain!

We have to save our religion from these so called traders of religion.

This religion is for us a wonderful art of living and we have to improve this art!

So let's go,

We all increase the "understanding" of our own religions.

We read Gita, Quran and Bible and every book of our own religion!

We save the reputation of these so called fake babas and their absurd "understanding" of their own religions!
