There is a raging controversy going on in my home state of Kerala and, infact, in the whole of India and the rest of the world on the issue of Godmen. Some people have been deliberately trying to limit the debate to merely Hindu Swamys who dot various parts of the state and the country. But I feel, objectively defining, any Godman (or is it Man God?) should be any Man (need not be a male) born on this earth, of all the universe, biologically and is alive, or is no more and he himself or his followers claim that he is the Supreme Creator of all the visible and invisible universe. (Of course God should not be meant for the earth and its inhabitants only !) Viewed in this manner, not only the Godmen who live in our midst presently, but Jesus Christ and Budha and the others who were born and lived here, a couple of thousands of years ago, when such media and public scrutiny was unthinkable of, could be said to have been more fortunate. Or, by the same token, can't the present-day Godmen pass the test of time after say another two thousand years and be confirmed as God?
Don't you think the Supreme Creator is not one bound by such constraints of time and space, and geography? Comments are invited !
