Explanations first.
A horcrux is a ficticious magical object created by JK Rowling in Harry Potter. It is an object in which you can split your soul and keep it. If you create a horcrux, you basically make parts of yourself which helps you survive longer, since your killer would need to destroy all the horcruxes you make. For an example: Voldemort had seven horcruxes (a locket, a diary, a snake, a goblet, a ring, a diadem, and Harry Potter himself)
During any hindu puja, there is a matra that the pundits recite so as to "bring life" into the idol that is to be worshipped. There are thousands of pujas that happen on a single day. That means, "life is brought" into thousands of idols by the pundits. We all know God is one, so how can She (only a woman possesses the power of creation) reside in so many idols? I found an answer from Harry Potter- She splits her soul, so that every idol worshipped can contain a part of Her.
Now the real post. (I am not trying to point out that idol worshipping is equivalent to performing dark arts)
Well, I thought about this for a long time- during Durga Pujas, during Saraswati Pujas and during all pujas in between. I chewed my mother's brain too asking about this immaterial but interesting question that pondered in my brain. If God was one, how can there be so many idols of the same God containing her life? It was rather recently that Lord Voldemort, rather JK Rowling who helped me out. God is considered to be all powerful. So, definitely She knows how to split herself. So, does that mean idols are horcruxes? Maybe, atleast thats how I look at them now. Well, atleast they are not the work of the dark arts...
Random thoughts of my jobless mind! What a theory... looking forward to your comments on this one!
