It's not so easy to understand God!

When people try to understand God by their own knowledge and experience and think I know God then God must be thinking how foolish that person is trying to see whole world from inside the well.

It is said that God only reveal to them whom He want to, else by own knowledge and logic no one can understand God.

There is a small incident where we can understand, how we get confused when we try to understand God by his illusory energy.

While War was going on between Lord Rama and demon king Ravna and Indrajit fired the deadly noose of the serpent, with which he bound Rama and Lakshmana, who have  already been badly wounded by him.

Hanuman ji went to Vaikuntha Loka to call Garuda the carrier of Vishnu and told all story, Garuda came and after seeing Garuda snakes went away due to fear of Garuna and Lord Rama and Laxmana became free.

Everyone sarted praising Garuda and when Garuda was returning he thought are they really God? if they are then how come they can bound by serpent? I don't think they are God.

He immediately went to Lord Brahma to clear his doubt, after hearin from Garuda Lord Brahma told to Garuda, "My dear Garuda even I got confused like you so I can not clear your doubt better you go to Lord Shiva, he must help you."

Garuda went to Kailash and asked about his doubt, Lord Shiva smiled and told Garuda, "My dear Garuda I can clear your doubt but you are bird you better understand bird language than me so I recommend you to go Nilagiri and there is KaakBhushundi (In form of Crow) he will help you for sure."

Garuda went to Nilagiri and when he reached at that land immeditely his doubts got cleared and he put his obeisances to KaakBhushundi but KaakBhushundi told, "My dear Garuda you are Bird King and carrier of Lord Vishnu you are more superior than me."

But in reply Garuda said,"I was having doubt on God but once I reach at your place my doubt immediately got cleared so by this I can understand power of yours."

And this way Garuda told entire story to KaakBhushundi.

KaakBhushundi understand the situation and told Garuda, "This was also happen with me and you see me in the form of Crow, because I got realization in this form only that is why I wanted to stay in this body and from now onward I pray to God I never comes under illussion and keep doubt on God."

There is a very sweet pastimes of Garuda and KaakBhushundi in Sri RamCharit Manas (Uttar Kand) and if you read you must understand it's not so easy to understand God, if His own carrier Gardua get confused then what to speak of an ordinary person.

So, moral of the story is, don't try to understand God, it is not so easy to understand Him but if we keep full faith and become a pure devotee He himself reveal us.
