A Child below 5 years of age is a Sin-less humun soul, Is it is equivalent to God?

Question

If you want to worship God, Pray before him by lighting a Diya, you will get your good wishes full-filled.

Answer 1

upto the age of 7 yrs. one tend to live with 70%of mind component,only 30% heart is left for one's company,where as one is sinless as long as one lives with the company of one's heart,takes every command from the heart,where as each soul is divine one,so u can consider infants r true image of god,since they only live with the company of their heart only,if u want to pray,u need't light diya before anybody just peep into yr own heart with pure attention yr every desired will be fullfilled,one must be pure at heart.

Answer 2

No, the child still has the stain of original sin, even though they are independently blameless. Nothing and no-one is equivalent to God. He is is the Creator, we are His creations.

By the way, what's a Diya, and why would I want to light one? To pray before Him, all I have to do is turn my mind to Him in prayer. He doesn't always give me what I want, but what I need spiritually if I am open to His will.

Answer 3

I do not know the reason begind this question?
The idea of treating childrend like a god is to not :1. to harm the child - because they do not have as much power or energey as the adults have to save themselves from any brutality
2. Parents/ teachers/others/bad people may harm children in many ways for simple reasons - if this happens to children at the young ages below 8 years- it will get imprinted in their minds for thier entire life - not erasable - they may repeat the same treatment with their children or others when they grow up.

This is why we should treat children sacred and godly.

No need to pray the children as gods but also not to harm the child in any way.

Answer 4

Yes!!! Acountability is everything... A child is born sinless and a child before the age of accountabilty by most religous standards is the age of eight years old. Remember in the bible "What is the kingdom of heaven like? It is like a child. Suffer the chiildren to come unto me". I believe that as once said we must become like little children to inheritthe Kingdom of God. Some may feel that it is requisite of a child to be babtised in infancy, not so, this is an abomination in the eyes of the Lord. Having raised three boys to manhood with children of their own, I have seen the difference in the lives of them as a child to adult.

Answer 5

if that child has learned to talk by that age, I'm sure that they have lied. I'm sure that they have been angry. So, I don't think that all cute, little 5 yr olds are sinless. I have 6 yr old twins. I have used the fact that I didn't have to teach my kids to lie in my lessons about the nature of sin.

As for the details of your question. What bible verse is that in? Are you being deceived into worshipping a false god? If you are not in the word daily, you will be subject to these kind of falsehoods that will lead you on the wrong path. Don't be one of those who on Judgement day that call on the name of Jesus and are told "Away from me... I never knew you."

Answer 6

Yes,a child below five years is a sin-less human soul,he is equivalent to God,because he is innocent & free from all vices,that is why Jesus Christ has said,"If you want to reach God,become a Child"

Answer 7

From where did you get this limitation of 5 years??? Anyone who cannot understand the difference between right and wrong is a child. I think believe is everything. If you believe all childrens are god, then they are god

Answer 8

What's a Diya? Try telling my niece this. She's 3 & is always stealing biscuits from My Mum!

Answer 9

Not equivalent to God. Sin still lives in their body.
Also, by the time they are 5 they have usually already told lies or done other things wrong.
A helpless baby is sinless.

Answer 10

Not true. Please read Srimad Bhagavatam - carefully.

SB 1.13.1 Dhrtarastra Quits Home
Sri Suta Gosvami said: While traveling on a pilgrimage, Vidura received knowledge of the destination of the self from the great sage Maitreya and then returned to Hastinapura. He became as well versed in the subject as he desired.


PURPORT


Vidura: One of the prominent figures in the history of the Mahabharata. He was conceived by Vyasadeva in the womb of the maidservant of Ambika, mother of Maharaja Pandu. He is the incarnation of Yamaraja. Being cursed by Manduka Muni, he was to become a sudra. The story is narrated as follows. Once upon a time the state police caught some thieves who had concealed themselves in the hermitage of Manduka Muni. The police constables, as usual, arrested all the thieves and Manduka Muni along with them. The magistrate specifically punished the muni to death by being pierced with a lance. When he was just to be pierced, the news reached the king, and he at once stopped the act on consideration of his being a great muni. The king personally begged the muni's pardon for the mistake of his men, and the saint at once went to Yamaraja, who prescribes the destiny of the living beings. Yamaraja, being questioned by the muni, replied that the muni in his childhood pierced an ant with a sharpened straw, and for that reason he was put into difficulty. The muni thought it unwise on the part of Yamaraja that he was punished for his childish innocence, and thus the muni cursed Yamaraja to become a sudra, and this sudra incarnation of Yamaraja was known as Vidura, the sudra brother of Dhrtarastra and Maharaja Pandu. But this sudra son of the Kuru dynasty was equally treated by Bhismadeva, along with his other nephews, and in due course Vidura was married with a girl who was also born in the womb of a sudrani by a brahmana. Although Vidura did not inherit the property of his father (the brother of Bhismadeva), still he was given sufficient state property by Dhrtarastra, the elder brother of Vidura. Vidura was very much attached to his elder brother, and all along he tried to guide him on the right path. During the fratricidal war of Kuruksetra, Vidura repeatedly implored his elder brother to do justice to the sons of Pandu, but Duryodhana did not like such interference by his uncle, and thus he practically insulted Vidura. This resulted in Vidura's leaving home for pilgrimage and taking instructions from Maitreya.
