The Paradox of Earthly Toys

THE PARADOX OF EARTHLY TOYS .

Have you ever envisaged yourself as a toy of the God ? With that statement , did you just feel like ‘hold on’ you just read my thoughts ?

Or , on the contrary , did you take it as if I’m fooling around with such a outlandish convictions ? Well, I have had this sense of déjà vu many a times .

Lots of people believe that God is the creator , sustainer and destroyer of life in this universe . Asit is also stated in Srimad Bhagvatham that we humans are the instruments of kreeda [ play ] of the gods . He puts a few of us together and takes us away according to his will. Some stay with us for a lifetime , some for a season and a reason .

During this short span we enact our roles according to the will and wish of his highness . During our childhood we used to play with dolls we were the director , cinematographer , producer of the play and would make those little toys dance on our tunes . Wait! Isn’t this what god is doing to us ?

Another incident I remember is when my friend bought some pet birds . She fixed them in a cage with a few pots for feedindg purpose , food and water was supplied on time and just when we thought everything was fine , starts the notorious territorial fights
