DOES GOD EXIST?
A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed.
As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation.
They talked about so many things and various subjects. When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: "I don't believe that God exists."
"Why do you say that?" asked the customer.
"Well, you just have to go out in the street to realise that God doesn't exist. Tell me, if God existed, would there be so many sick people?
Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain. I can't imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things."
The customer thought for a moment but didn't respond, because he didn't want to start an argument.
The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed, very messy, ungroomed beard. He looked dirty and unkempt.
The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again. He said to the barber: "You know what? Barbers do not exist."
"How can you say that?" asked the surprised barber. "I am here and I am a barber, I just worked on you!"
"No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't exist, because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside."
"Ah, but barbers DO exist!" answered
the barber." What happens is, people do not come to me."
"Exactly!"- affirmed the customer. "That's the point! God too, DOES exist! What happens is, PEOPLE DON'T GO TO HIM AND DO NOT LOOK FOR HIM OR LOVE & REMEMBER HIM...
That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."
We spend most our life accumulating wealth and forgetting to love God through the remembrance of Naam meditation, yet we always want God to be there in the time of need!
God is power, force, energy, love, spirit, mind, body, nature, sound, air, fire, water and earth. Tell us where Vaheguroo (God) doesn't exist!
Guru Arjun Dev Ji Says, "Forgetting God, you suffer awful pain beyond measure. You are consumed by the Great Enticer, Maya (materialism/delusion)."
Vaheguroo!
