CONFRONTING PIECES OF IDENTITY

"Men of all nature live a life inside a cocoon; the moment he steps out,he realises it and choose to fly"

The pieces of identity which one carves around for oneself in the society by alleviating his/her own's networth,status,education,power,attention span etc stands as an epitome of hunger towards an identifiable existence of material self.The mere "come and go" nay sayers have never struggled or pampered upon for creating such identity upon them.They come,they live,they go.Neither did they tried any hard to retain such identity upon self.

"I am a male/female" is the easiest identity that one can claim attaching a pride to his/her gender.The next closest identity which we claim is our "Religion/belief".Most humans clamp themselves to this piece of recognition stamped upon them.Contemplating what a Religion is,one can see how religion was the way of living prior A.Ds and how has it become as the "living of the day" in the contemporary world.

We are arrogated by the mistaken pieces of identity which we never learned,gained or practiced.The identity which we are possessive about, is not a matter of possession but should be a substantial essence of disposition.When further sought introspectively, as to why most of the humans have their affinity towards the recognition offered by their religion,we will have to pose the right question which is, "What shakes human mind the most?".The answer will be "Faith".Well,its actually "Faithlessness".Man is a bounded rational being for his choices are limited.The so called random piece of universe which is macroscopically objectified by Grand Universe Theory had been given a colourful pill of subjective acceptance named as "Fate".We are all bystanders and we take it for granted that someone else is playing the game.Thus the faithlessness over one's own potential has given rise to the "Faith" over the Unknown player.

I am no atheist as I strongly believe in the forces beyond control.The point that need to jotted  down is that it's not necessary to classify the force of the unknown for we are all perceived by a very limited knowledge about the state of its existence.True,that such a force exists but it cannot be quantified and accommodated within a limited set of rules.Humans can reach their highest potential only when their faith is guided by their faithlessness."Faithlessness",that this couldn't be the ultimate force for it could be easily quantified as per our wish and the faith that man has the potential within himself to seek further exploration.

In a way we all are half blind men trying to perceive the elephant in the room.Half blind men with a narrowed vision to accept the version of the visual being narrated by a monopoly seller.Rather than a narrowed vision,let religion be the bifocal lens to explore the full potential of mankind.Let us not be ourselves the men "confronting to pieces of identity"for the identity is half broken.Let's confront the broken piece and try finding the real.The journey may not end within a life time.
