The Résumé of GOD! (My Perspective)

These days when someone is seeking for new job or thinking of changing a job, the first and foremost thing she/he does, is sit down with cool mind and start typing her/his resume in best possible way. No more no less, but the resume give genuine information Who you are?, How you are?, Where you are?, What are your abilities and skills?, What you have done?, What you can do etc. Let's keep that simple perspective intact and ask a simple question, does GOD has a résumé? that gives us also a simple set answers: Who is God? How is God? Where is God? What are the abilities and skills of God, What God has done, What GOD can do?.

Now the Question pops up, why God had to write his/her  résumé? (Is he/she also searching for JOB?). I don't know, If I were He/ She, I would be least bothered to have one.

Then who wrote it?

Those who felt it is needed to have one. Another question why it was so needed?

Because there was a Job Description (JD)!, A want, a Wish, a Desire...That's how Foundation of "faiths" in this world were laid down.

In Sanatan faith (Not Hindu Religion as we know today), there were thinkers like Veda Vyas, (son of a fisherwoman and a lame Muni), Jabali (the Mystic, the outcast), Charak, Udalak, Kanad, Viswamitra, Vasit, Anusuya, Gargi, Madalasa, did more or less gave the genuine résumé of God which were never out of context. The best and so far the most Important of is, "The Gayatri Mantra"

The Gayatri Mantra - The working Résumé of GOD! -The way I understood!

It's 3.62.10th hymn of Rig Veda, prefixed with Om (Pranav) and a formula of Bhur, Bhubha & Svah.

Om

 (The Pranav)

Bhur Bhubha Svha,

(The Formula)

Tat Savitur Varenyam, Bhargo Debasya Dhimahi, Dhiyo Yo naha Prachodyat.

(The Tripod Structure, RigVeda 3.62.10 )

Om, The Pranav ( ) Just Blank, Nothing yet Everything.....I would just like to skip it as I don't know enough.  (Analogy to Your Personal Resume - Your Name)

Bhur Bhubaha Swa, The three realm of consciousness - Analogy to your address or past and present areas of your work.

Tat Savitur Varenyam, That Luminous like Sun, The most desired one (Analogy to your Personal Resume - Your Qualification)

Bhargo Devbasya Dhemahi, The Sinless destroyer of Sin, The Devine and That Imbibed within (Analogy to your Personal Resume - What you are experienced of)

Dhiyo yo Naha Prachodayat, Guide our thoughts in the righteous path. (Analogy to your Personal Resume - What you can do)

" Guide our thought in righteous path" - That's the Key - God guides our thoughts in righteous path, that all GOD can Do and Bluntly Nothing!

Is it not that need of the Hour! - Right Thinking, Good Thoughts, Noble Thoughts - That is mother of Solutions to all our Problems - RIGHT THINKING.

There is another Hymn in Atharv Veda - 19/17-1, that tells what happens if one has Right Thinking.

"Om Stuta maya Varda vedamata prachodyatanm pavamani dwijani aayu pranam prajam pasum keertim dravinam bramhabarchasam mahyam datva vrajata bramhalokam"

The God as Mother of Wisdom grants Him/ her purity, longevity, friend and followers, wealth, fame and eternal bliss. (Analogy to your Personal Resume - Once posted you bring holistic Profitable growth to the company !)
