Godman…. Gurus…. Babas…. Why do people fall for them….?

First, An anticipatory bail here….
I have never been to any of these so-called Godmen, neither heard their speeches…. not at least in YouTube…
But that doesn’t mean I hate any of them who belong to this genre….

And last but not the least, the above-mentioned headlines would be an obvious question asked by many of us….

First, I’ll go with the second statement I had made here…
Why I don’t hate any of these Godmen….?
See, to influence others and that too a large mass by any means is his or her talent…It’s only the number of people who follow a person, make him or her a leader, a star, good orators, sportsmen….and the list goes endless…So here also we cannot go away from admitting the fact that these so-called Demigods has plenty of followers….
But whether people would go simply…? There should be a purpose…right?
True or False, let’s think that it’s the problem in their life which forces these people to approach these Babas….And any problem, as we all would agree is a hindrance to our peace of mind…. It could be family issues, finance, poverty, illness, profession, joblessness and many more….So, whether we can believe that they get peace of mind from them…? What is left out for us to think otherwise….?
Indeed, if anybody gets a cool mind from whatever it is, we should think positive about it…

Now coming to the riches of this people…
What is the income for these people…? Donations….?
Indeed, we can think so because, it’s not only the poor who are having issues…We can see lot of VVIP’s & the richest in the list falling on the feet of these gurus…
And for those big shots, a few lakhs is nothing…. When the number of people of the same kind becomes more and more, they grow bigger & bigger, ultimately making them business magnets…

Now…a simple question…When is it that these people draw a large media attention….?Controversies…. Its only when the mentioned word arises that we all are drawn to them….A VERY SMALL list who had hit the headlines and an infamous media coverage is sighted at the top..

But things never end here….
Though these people are caught, hand cuffed, trailed and even thrown to jail…the followers, their numbers still remain the same…Whether believes never change…? We human beings are bound to changes as time goes…But I have seen that at least a few things are so cemented that a change becomes next to impossible…I am equating this with the corrupted politicians & criminal politicians in our country….Though the entire nation and the law has fixed someone in the mentioned category, we see that they still have a large mass to accept them…

Herein I’m forced to think that people becomes crazy about certain things that the beliefs and thoughts becomes so dogged that…they accept people beyond their reality…Some godmen perform tricks, taking things from the empty space…Even though You Tube videos are available showing how they perform it, the so-called devotees would still walk the way of their gurus…

So ultimately, we would conclude that people becomes crazy for the so-called godmen, that even a logical explanation of the reality would fly above their brains…

One last thing I would like to mention here is that, there are still many more gurus who had never hit the media…We are yet to bounce upon them to know their credibility….Let’s leave them, by thinking that they are true babas….

So, winding up, we must say that its by HIS skill or talent that he is able to attract a mass, whether it is his words, predictions or tricks…And once fallen, THEIR thoughts are beyond any logic & reality that even when answerless question stand before them…they just close their eyes for a few seconds and walk above the same….

So…This is the VIEW in the FRAMES of my mind…. What’s yours…. would like to know…..

  1. Very well written 🙌 I agree. These self claimed godmen are rich due to our support. Let us shun them completely & make them realise that there is no place for them in our society. And even before, that we have to shun the mindless people who follow these babas
