I overheard this but found it so true that even, God will not be able to save this country. In India even if God comes down He cannot change our country. Our country’s character has gone. We are helpless. And that’s what the Supreme Court the highest court in the land thinks about the government apparatus how the ordinary citizens are expected to fight against injustice and corruption. This is an extremely serious matter.

Will Gods ever dare to come down and assume human form? Their experience once they switch over to assume our roles has never been good. Ram had to spend 14 years in forests. Worse still He had to eventually lose His wife as well for no fault of her. Krishna was killed as if He was just like any other ordinary being. So was Jesus. God has landed on this enemy-occupied world in human form. The perfect surrender and humiliation was undergone by Christ: perfect because He was God, surrender and humiliation because He was man. The past events ought to have made Gods wiser. In any case one tends to think that they would run away if they see Hindi movies.

It is not that they are not revered. Actually they are placed on the highest pedestal. No member of our traditional society would risk their curse whatever the likes of Albert Einstein might say about them. What really interests is whether God had any choice in the creation of the world. Sometimes, however, film-makers being human beings let their imagination run riot. They have not spared even Yamraj. How can we forget the Lord of Dharma who is also the Lord of Death developing liking for whisky while coming down to earth in ‘Vah! Life ho to aisi’ (the Hindi movie starring Shahid Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt). He wears modern attire and takes bodies to Heaven or Hell in a car. Once under the spell of Bacchus He spares the life of a young person and goes back to His abode up in the sky. How efficiently has Sanjay Dutt played the role?

Gods must be wondering about the manner in which they may be portrayed in soon-to-be-released “God Tussi Great Ho.” The cast of the movie includes Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Priyanka Chopra and Manisha Koirala. What is their creation doing to them? Gods may be debating among themselves. They had made the man to be their bearer, someone who was to be an expression of their character. What is he up to instead? Why are lesser mortals compared to them and called Gods simply because they do well in a particular sphere of activity especially films?

It is a query Gods alone can answer. Have they not created an illusion among human beings about their dominance by occasionally opting to live like them? If the meanest life, the poorest existence, is attributed to God’s will, but as human beings become more affluent, as their living standard and style begin to ascend the material scale, God descends the scale of responsibility. What can they do to a selfish for even if they decide to come down and set an. example by personal conduct?
