Humans have worshipped Gods for thousands of years. The Gods may be men or women with supernatural powers or just natural things like sea, river, tree or even mountains and hills. People have found a way of connecting and building relationships with these Gods. Gradually they started seeking help from Gods for the crisis in their lives. Later, the blind beliefs of people were replaced with religions which came with rules and regulations regarding everyday life. They firmly believed in their creator and maker of the world, who kept everything moving in balance. How would the world exist so perfectly without someone to take care of the happenings?
