If we do good things god will do good to us and if we do bad things god will punish us. So what is the need of praying god??

Also god will not be an autocrat who expects people to be under his feet to fulfill their wishes

Praying God may give confidence-but believing yourself is more powerful than believing god.

We should believe in ourselves and work but should not believe just god without working.

we are nothing and we are not for ourselves in this world, if you are for yourself in this world and this world is for enjoying your life then you should born and die with your own will.

You are nothing; even you can’t give thanks to GOD even for a single breadth you took last.

we are here just to pray, doing good deeds and die in respect,

You can have a good life even without helping others but it doesn’t mean that you are doing well. it will cost you sometimes in your life or with your later generations will suffer for that and after death you will be in great trouble

Our parents who gave us this material body, don’t they forgive us for every mistake of ours, can they ever think of disowning us because we did something wrong…if they as human beings cannot, then think how God who is our creator, the one who teaches us the unconditional love, ever punish us.. God is not what this mind of ours perceive…he is beyond and he has never told anyone to worship him…when you say that you believe yourself that means that you respect and believe the God that is in you, for that matter, the God who is in every human being… he wants us to reach him through God consciousness and which starts with loving and believing oneself. Christ & Krishna achieved that consciousness, you don’t have to kneel or pray before any idol. He is everywhere, he is all that exists

I don’t know about afterlife, but if you make this life that the God has given you beautiful and make this earth a peaceful place to live in, you would have served the purpose God has sent you.
