When the Supreme God Committed Suicide...A Blogrial.

PROLOGUE

December, 1950

One after one the invitees are entering the premises of the massive palace wondering why the meeting has been so urgently needed. This is the second time this kind of meeting is arranged in centuries. The first was held nearly a million centuries ago. Lord Brahma, Gautama Buddha, Guru Nanak, Jesus Christ, Lord Krishna, Prophet Mohammed, Shinto, Lord Shiva and Vardhamana Mahaveera are the only invitees (Names mentioned in alphabetical order).

The auditorium is a big hall whose walls and roof are scarcely visible. They are not transparent. There are no chairs on the dais for anyone to be invited to be seated on. No President, No Guest of Honor, no Speakers; there is only one lectern-like structure.

And suddenly there is heard a thundering sound. The invitees have stopped speculating about the agenda of the ‘URGENT MEETING’ and looked in that direction of the sound.

A giant glow is descending. It is known that it is descending based on the direction of its movement, but not on its movement. The glow has stopped at the lectern-like structure. No formal greetings exchanged even though they have met after some centuries.

The glow has started illuminating and disilluminating, in accordance with the tune of which the invitees could hear the speech.

My Dear Sons,

It was long ago we met when I started the organization named, “THE ASSOCIATION OF PROPHETS.” It was on my directions, you landed on the earth at different times and established your “own (??!!)” religions and made the inhabitants of the earth your followers. So far, I have very successfully played with the lives of those whom I have created. Wrote their writs of fate; changed their providence and successfully have been fooling them for centuries together. I can never forget your contributions in this regard, though of course, you are also a part of my creation.

But, for the first time in the history of my life, I am encountering a problem. “A PROBLEM” for the Creator of this universe! Could you ever think of it?

It was at a week moment yesterday, I, who have been, for centuries together, relentlessly working had a siesta. When I woke up, I found that Satan, in my absence, could somehow hack into my MAIN COMPUTER and marred its software. Of course, after a battle of a few hours, I could track that disaffiliated son of a bitch and could thwart him from causing any further damage. But the damage which should not take place did already take place.

And the consequences…

O MYSELF! (The Supreme God never uses the expression My God!) The result is that my creation is going to become a Frankenstein, out of my control and I, who have been proud to call myself the Supreme God am now an ordinary being.

It is this that has made me call for this URGENT meeting. I state that I have no solutions with me. Every possible solution has been very carefully considered and tried but to no avail.

I am sorry Dear Sons.

It is purely my fault and the worst part of it is that you are going to face the consequences. I cannot see my creation going to dogs, particularly when I am not the cause for that! I cannot appreciate the fact that the DOOMS DAY is arriving much before than I have scheduled it to arrive and I am just an audience to it shedding tears.

NOOOOOOOOOO!

I cannot live to see it. Good bye my Sons. This good bye has not got its usual etymological meaning ‘God be with ye!’ Because, I SHALL BE NO MORE.

The Prophets listening to the speech very carefully are just shocked and for the first time in their life time they have become inactive. By the time they could understand the full meaning of the last statement of the Supreme God “I MUST DIE,” the giant glow started sinking into itself.

THE GOD IS DYING...

NOPE! THE GOD IS COMMITTING SUICIDE. AND THE CREATION OF THE GOD IS NOT AWARE OF IT. ONLY THE MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATION OF THE PROPHETS ARE AWARE OF IT AND THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO STOP IT.

It's obvious...It IS.

Spoken greetings are sweet, but those unspoken; yet understood are sweeter...

A VERY HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, DEAR ONE.

Strange as it may sound... I am listening to the first song from Bad Boys Blue, while I am posting this.
