What knowledge and rituals are required to get to God?
From the first of June, 2018, I started writing Good Morning messages in the form of poems (Please read: ‘Good Morning Message #1‘).
The last such message was:’Good Morning Message #209‘.
Good Morning Friends,
The world’s knowledge increases as the world ages,
That means when mankind evolved we had least wordly knowledge.
So, let’s get back, in history book, to the first few pages,
And get to the nursery from now being in college.
So when to God the first time man prayed,
Little or no knowledge such a man displayed.
No languages would have evolved at that time,
Nor would people have known rituals and hymns.
No practices could have been called sublime,
People won’t have yet learnt to use fancies and whims.
And yet His children would have been to Him as dear,
As those now who to strict religious practices adhere.

Can we then easily and safely conclude,
That knowledge and rituals are not compulsory to get God;
With today’s standards those people praying must have looked crude,
Something that we would now hold as flawed.
I think there would have been only one demand of God above,
That you turn towards Him with heart full of love.
I think after eons it is still the same,
God doesn’t require for us to pray in complex ways,
All that we need to know is to call Him by His name,
And He’d respond to our loving devotion always.
God is not a reward for passing some skill test,
Those who love Him are to Him the nearest.
I don’t suppose any since nil are required for a child to get to his/her mother.
