Articles: Devotion | Idol - Worship
- Prof. venkata ramanamurty mallajosyula

In spiritual matters, it is experience alone that is the
deciding factor. Reason is rendered dumb before the testimony of actual experience.
All the arguments of logic, all the tricks of dialectics are
powerless to nullify the direct effect of that inner evidence.
For example, many people laugh at those who practice image
worship and condemn it as superstition. But those who do worship idols have the faith that the Omnipresent Almighty is present in the symbol before them. It is a part of the inner mechanism of devotion and faith.
Of course, all the 'Worship' carried out with the idea that the
idol is life-less wood or stone or bronze, is so much waste of
time. But if it is done in the full confidence that the image or idol is alive, saturated with consciousness and power, then,
image worship can bestow the realization of God-head itself.
