Need to choose either Reason or Faith or Both: What we want to live with!!


Need to choose either Faith or Reason!!

Choice is always in our Head, Heart and Hands what we want to live with in our lives.

Can't get both extreme in one. However, can be balance and choose to live in a middle path.


A choice is always in our Head, Heart and Hands either Learn, Explore and keep learning and generating new ideas
or 

END your ideas and frozen your thoughts.

or 

Try to balance both by following middle path and live with reason in faith or faith with reason for the humanity and prosperity of the nation and society including your own personal growth and development.

If we think that we are learned people then we've to understand and follow::
“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”
- Buddha

Living with reason in faith and faith with reason for the prosperity and humanty is the Middle path as Buddha suggested. Rather than believing blindly closing our eyes of both mind and outside we've to learn to find out reason and live with reason and faith rather than just one like a Sheep (Bheda).

“Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality.”
