Holy Scriptures : Myth or Reality?

Holy Scriptures all round the world, chiefly the Gita, Bible, Koran, Ramayan and the Guru Granth Sahib, speak of amazing things done by the prophets and great incarnations that simply seem unbelievable at first. And all the prophets said that whatever they were doing was possible by the power of God. Hanuman could fly. Moses could part the sea. Jesus healed many and even brought back the dead to life. Krishna transformed an ugly woman into a beautiful damsel by just touching her.

We worship these scriptures saying that they contain the words of God. We build temples and places of worship and keep these scriptures in them, revering them and praying to them. However hardly anyone today believes all that is written in these holy books. Even those in the highest authority in the religions to which these books belong ignore the words of God thinking that they are just myths.

Why then worship books that seem to contain lies?

But hold on! What if what they are saying is true? What if such feats are possible by the power of God? And what if this power of God could be attained?

An amazing revelation comes through the book You Are God written by Shashi Verma that is based on the teachings of Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita. This unique and path breaking interpretation of the words of Krishna shakes the very beliefs held by mankind and gives answer to man’s eternal question, "who am I?" or "who man truly is?" It takes one on a journey through time to the moment when everything was created and tells us how the supreme power called God made everything and all forms. And also how he created bodies for Him and came to live in the human form.

For the first time ever the book You Are God attempts to wake up the world to the fact once revealed by Lord Krishna that man is not man, he is God. All human beings are fragments of the same self, or the same God lives in all bodies as living being. However the ego deludes the being/God in the body and he looks at him as ‘I’- a man or a woman, and fails to perceive that he is God.

But just knowing the fact is not enough according to Krishna. Man has to realise that he is God, not man. The self-realisation is the power of God that was available to the prophets. To attain the self-realisation and to destroy the deluding ego, Lord Krishna reveals an amazing path that is so simple that it seems unbelievable at first. To follow the simple path that leads to self realization one does not have to change one’s life style and actions. A change in one’s thoughts, while performing usual actions and enjoying all sense objects, will give him the realization of being God- the Power that created matter and the universe and performed miracles from the bodies of prophets.

This is the age when this truth about man and God is coming out into the open. And this book puts forward this truth in a very lucid manner. It tells how all divine powers reside in God and how by realisation of oneself being God by the path shown by Lord Krishna one can attain all these powers.

The writer is the author of the book, You are God- The Bhagavad Gita as never before.
