Since we have taken human birth, doing our karma is the only ''worship''
and honouring duties and responsibilities, the only "meditation". Separately
worshiping or meditation is performed by those, who have turned their back on
duties.

The extent to which you depend on the capabilities of your own mind or on the
external knowledge and situation to resolve any issue, shows how deep a mind
you dwell in.
If I talk about the Hindu religion, all their gods are kings and warriors (kshatriya)...
Then when and how did the reins of religion get into the hands of these pundits
and sannyasins?
In reality, what you are is not that important as "are you really what you portray
yourself to be?"
It is the law of nature that when adversity strikes, nature invariably provides
us with the strength to endure that pain. Look for yourself, we are not that
disheartened with the pains of present...but are worried sick about the pains to
come in future.
Is there a rebirth or reincarnation? Definitely yes... But according to the law of
nature, if you do not exist at all, then you cannot be 'born'; and if you exist, you
cannot be destroyed.
Birth is a moment. Even death is a moment. The chain of moments spent between
the two is called life. In that case, time is indeed precious. We can bring an end
to all our problems as soon as we analyze... as to where and on what issues we
have been wasting our time.
Question is, why did the truly "intelligent" people distance themselves from
the great personalities like Krishna, Jesus and Buddha? Because, in order to
strengthen their individual businesses, religious gurus associated miracles with
them. Now, an intelligent person may agree with anything but can never accept
'miracles'.
The horse who wins the race, but does not know the difference between dry and
green grass, for how long can he sustain himself in the race? Same is the case
with people who attain higher degrees or are scholars, but still do not understand
the realities of life.
No teaching, no society nor any of the so-called religion explains to us the
importance of qualities like simplicity, innocence, selflessness or compassion.
Whereas the truth is, all the best creations, inventions and arts have stemmed
from the "consciousness" of people with these qualities.
