Introduction In all communities, religions, all over the world, there have always been at least a few persons who believed in the omnipotence and omnipresence of God. These persons realised that God is the commander of all activities of man and other organisms. It is He who makes a man a king and it is He who reduces him to be a pauper. It is He who makes a man healthy, wealthy, wise and brave and it is He who makes him linki-lanki, miserable, dull and stupid. It is He who designed Gandhi Ji to be the father of Indian nation and to be addressed as 'Mahatma' and it is He who roused Nathu Ram Godse to bow before him to touch his feet and then to shoot him. It is He who raised Rajiv Gandhi, an ordinary pilot, to the office of the Prime Minister of India and it is He who led him to the occasion where he was blasted. It is He who crowned K. R. Narayanan, the son of an ordinary man, to be the President of India and it is He who demoted Karan Singh and Madhavrao Scindia, the past rulers of states, to be ordinary citizens.
Some devotees of God are so ardent as to state that not a single leaf can move without His will or his Directions.
