Creator

We live in a world created for us not by us. It has been created with the help of centuries of bloodshed and destruction. Yes we have learned from the past and made an order which needs to be followed.  But there is no harm in questioning that order once in a while because maybe it has gone corrupt or maybe we just need a new order with the change in time.
As the society changes, needs change. Even the Ramayana. There is a big difference between the Valmikiya Ramayana and the Tulsi Das Ramayana. It’s the concept of Device. Device is the person who creates a particular thing but the idea or motive behind it changes with the needs of the society.
Valmikiya Ramayana wasn’t a perfect story. Ram wasn’t portrayed as a god but just a man who was a king. He had his dark side and that is the whole point. Nobody is perfect and that is what we need to learn. But with time the society needed someone to look up to which Tulsi Das came up with. A perfect figure who could be considered a bench mark. The story tried to inflict upon our mind, thoughts and opinions where the motive is not to provoke religious views but to give an ideology about how to lead our lives.
They are meant to give a positive energy which is all about positive behavior of humans, actually the point of Bible, Geeta, Mahabharata, etc but people instead of inculcating the ideas from the story, created an entity named god who is the one who does those things and only he could do those things because of course he is god and shall be prayed to or you will have to bear his wrath.

Change is an inevitable truth and it’s a creator who bring upon a change. A creator knows nothing. He creates because he thinks he knows nothing. The one who thinks he knows can create nothing.
That is why creators are few.
