AGNOSTIC OR ATHEISM

Every nook and corner of India is customed with some form of supernatural indices in form of temples, posters, idols or other esoteric forms. But in contrast, these makes the essence to our tradition and compliments of the real façade of India. All these indices as temples, monuments, practices, festive etc. beats loud with pride about our ancient civilization and its ethics which has extant for so many years.
But my question interdicts the possible existence of the Almighty; not being an atheist to proscribe the belief but an agnostic or a child trying to solve the doubt. Fables and ethic stories heard from our forbears has always fantasized about the ultimate power. Being living and growing up in technofuss world is hard to believe the concepts of god but there are certain implications or facts which rather give some support to the question.
The famous MAGARAJODHI of SABARIMALA; which is a blare of light said to be an indication of god; illuminates every once in a year in the month of January. But the miracle subordinated with the flying of an eagle( called as the god's vehicle- garuda) just above the gleaming light ; whether it is fortuitous or unworldly is out of syllabus.
We Indians are well known with the clairvoyance and its practices around; especially the all notable NAADI JOSIYAM is outstanding in the way the predictions are made. According to the practice, the chiropractor studies the thumb impressions of the individual and tells the whole genealogy and privy facts of the individual; said to be dictated by the god himself.
The concept of buoyancy is well derided by a rock floating on water; inscribed with epithet- RAM , the rock floats on water which was used in building up a bridge( acc. to Ramayana).
These implications or much articulated empirical facts does prove the existence to some extent and till that extent the god will remain the true emblem of India.
