Law Of Nature

HUKUM, RAZAA, LAW OF NATURE...? What does this Universe comprise of??

All heavenly bodies including sun, moon, earth and various other planets, oceans, stars and all the galaxies collectively form this universe, the unlimited heavenly bodies are also a composition of this Universe. Now, in this whole universe where is God? Where does the almighty resides among these stars, planets and galaxies? From where is he showering rain, sunlight, earthquakes, thunderstorms, etc.? Is he causing all these natural calamities as per his choice?? Let us believe that this dictator and supreme authority is also a poet of this universe only. He is residing in his creation itself. If we agree on this, then only. We can get a direction to understand the WILL of God. When we understand his omnipresent, that he is residing in his creation only. And doesn’t take shifts abroad, he is always, every moment a part of this CREATION. These cannot be a fraction of a second also when God is missing from HIS creation, he is always there. He is residing in the flora and fauna i.e. all humans, animals, plants, vegetation, at every moment. Therefore, God doesn’t love any form, shape or body, he is embedded in this CREATION and can’t be restricted to an IDOL, a rock, a temple or in a single photograph. When, this omnipresent nature of God is clear, one directly understand. The law of nature. And when a lay man befouls us that – “I had an encounter with God 50 times” that means, other then those 50 moments he was totally devoid of GOD. Then, another man will give his experience, “I miracle took place, God helped me and I escaped that moment.” All these situations tell us, that God was temporary, impermanent, coming and going. But this is totally contrary to our belief that God is omnipresent, he is with us every moment & such is the premanner of God. The horizon of GOD is so wide, that every being can see and realise God in all the human beings, every eye, every face, every hand, every feet is none but a part of God. This is the exclusivity of Gurmat doctrine, where Nanak lays all emphasis to abide by ‘The Truth’, ‘The Universal law of Nature.’ One need not abide by the blind truth but only by the true system which is the will of God. As everyone waves us – that such and such saint or prophet has divine powers, there Nanak’s doctrine challenges them – that if the power is so great then, try and create a sixth element in this universe. Because, all the

scientist also prove of the fire elements. And, there is no way that a sixth element can be created. These, the prevalent system in his creation is what depicts his WILL, his Hukum, his Razaa. One needs to be very logical and rational in his approach and then abide by the LAW OF NATURE meaning we need to understand the system. For instance, among the various laws, one is the law of Gravitation and on discovering and understanding this law and its practicality due to its function it has been and for the making of airplanes, jets, gliders, etc. Now, if the airplane defies the law of nature some other problem, then some sort of accident is very obvious, like if the fuel tank gets empty, or the engine fails, or the pilot gets cadres, then gravity will definitely pull back the airplane. But, in today’s time, entering the 21st also we are not ready to halt and kinder over those technical difficulties. And whenever some accident takes place, we start relying on fate, we get entrapped in astrology, palmistry, etc. But if we give a little thought here, then the Zodiac signs foretelling our future have twelve exclusive predictions about the twelve district sun signs for some particular day. But, now the crowd boarding the airplane comprises of the entire zodiac sign people and still. The plane crashes or a planted bomb explodes there. So, what would you call those predictions now, which turned fatal for that entire crowd? This is where, the Law of Nature’ works or gives us the answer, that it is not destiny but some carelessness or deliberate action intended for this mishappening, which was opposed to the universal truth. To understand the Law of Nature better, let’s take an analogy – A student learns how to take a cake?, from her home science teacher. Now, the teacher gives the instructions on Baking, starting with the ingredients (egg, cream, chocolate, etc.) and then, the proper method of mixing these ingredients and finally keeping that better in the oven at an even temperature of 1200C for consecutive twenty minutes. The student follows the instructions, but the cake doesn’t turn out to be spongy and neither is it evenly pulled up. On this, he gets very disappointed and exclaims that it’s my bad luck that the cake didn’t turn out well, as it was partially uncooked and burnt at me end. But on narrating this to the teacher, she promptly picks up the emor and soothes the student. The teacher tells the student that its not your fate or luck, but an unstable supply of power or electricity fluctuations that the cake is unevenly baked. And regarding its sponginess, you must have missed the ‘cut in fold’ method while stirring the batter and the air contd. Not be incorporated well, these are the flows in your taking. Thus, it was not fate or destiny but an unfulfilled system, which led to this result.

Now compare this oven to a pregnant women’s womb, just like the oven this womb also doesn’t get stable power. At times the lady is happy, the other moment she is sad, or shouting at someone, or nagging her husband or getting jealous of someone, and watching violent movies, or there novels. Junk foods, which lack the required nutrients and performing all such unhealthy prefaces, the instability of temperament pertains, which fluctuates her moods off and on. Now with such fluctuations, the delivered child, also turns out to be an unhealthy, not well – blossomed fruit. The effect of the mother’s mood on the foetus is such that a hyperactive, disturbed, destructive, irritated, cranky child is produced, who often argues and fights with others. Thus, this child is the same as that cake, which didn’t get the stable temperature and was spoilt. But, no one ponders over this LAW OF NATURE and if the child turns out to be a Rebel, then the parents blame it on their destiny and fate, which is more escapism. Thus, the entire dictatorship of God is nothing lutra system which is at its best being ‘The Universal Truth.’ What lacks is our incapacity to understand and abide by these ‘Laws of Nature’, as this is the ‘will of god’, His Hukum, His Razaa.
