Who is big to you ? Your Parents or God

In the one side, the creator which we called the god and with whom you have been ushered by your parents. They guided you to worship the god otherwise you might not follow god. On the other hand, our parents, who are the cause of our existence. We might not be there if they unwanted us and our lives are 'Givings of them'. This isn't mere sayings. This is your devotion and reverence toward your parents only if you have a true love for them.

Biggest thing to me is :Time. No god and no parents are bigger than time. I am bound by the limits of time on this planet. I can't live forever praying to god. So time is the ultimate things in this universe that I believe in.

Of course time is everything because if you can't utilise the time properly everything is worthless. Worshipping not going to feed you but here I am talking about responsibility giving a name of rreverence

Not all parents deserve to be loved by their children .. because some parents are irresponsible and dysfunctional ..

Yes I agree with you, I had seen such parents .who were so relentless to their children that at the age of getting love and care from their parents.The parents shown different cause to put them to school hostel though they could take care by themselves. And on the weekend when those children were brought by their parents to showing off their love toward them, those children could build bond in between their parents and them.

Everyone has own view, according to me my parents because we never have seen god, so we do worshipping to some envoy of god.if it is so then what is bad with to worship our own parents because they too not less than an envoy to their children.

@PurnaSharma I guess they don't worship Budda...! They follow his teachings..! Dear...don't look at the people and decide look at the teachings by any religion..all of them believe to have god as a supreme one.! Paramathma, the father in the heavens, allah, god..all mean the same...the supreme and the one who is the greatest of all! Parents are a blessing from this supreme one !

There is this line from Fight Club " Our fathers were our models for God, if our fathers failed what does that tell you about God? "

KEEPING aside all example, I give you an another example. ..a man was living, assuming his parents as his ideal and had more reverence on them than god. Where other person had faith on god and he was careless of his parents and put them to live their lives into a hermitage. And both of them were expecting from god for their offspring to be obedient and look after them in their old age.But at the end both of their children repeated the same as they did and in this way god listened the first man's wishes.

Okay... Honestly, I don't really understand what you're trying to do here. I was just stating a line from a movie, you may perceived it as you like. And the example above, thank you for the story.
