Like every scientific hypothesis which when has
to be proved has to undergo few tests and the test result prove that the
hypothesis is true, we need to follow certain steps to prove (to ourselves only
– mind you – not to others!) that ours seer’s hypothesis or statement “I am
Divine” is true! Because, only when we know about ourselves will this fear and
ignorance vanish. Unfortunately or fortunately, there is no second option for
this realization.
And to this end, I am trying my bit to show where
the ignorance is and how it’s playing on and through our senses to hide “The
Truth”. Since, this is our long term goal, let’s address the issue at
hand.
(Please refer to comments section on ‘discipleship’
for clarification on this explanation)
You are avoiding mentioning your Guru’s name
because others are making fun of him. Same as what Peter did in Life of Jesus. But,
my question is why should their understanding and not understanding decide our
actions? Why are we letting others decide what we talk about and when? They don’t
like my Guru and hence talk ill of him – fine. But, that’s their opinion. Am I not
man enough to let other person use his right of expression? Where’s the
condition that one should be ‘liked and respected’ by all just because he is
spiritual or Guru or good? If you can understand hindi (language) listen to
this song “ kuch tho log kahenge…” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95UdAo4JdJI

if you want translation or lyrics of this song.
And most common of all excuses “ if there are
blessed or have punya karma (good deeds in their account ) then they will come
to know of it. Why should I go and tell people who don’t deserve to know about
it?”
Just disassociate yourself from the situation and
try to understand what I am trying to tell. Please be with me here. Hiranyakashyap
did not believe in ‘Narayana’ and yet Prahlad his son inspite of threat to his
life did not stop talking, singing and preaching about the glory of ‘Narayana’.
Agreed it didn’t change Hiranyakashyap but did give him Moksh as he met his
death in the hands of ‘Narayana’ and Prahlad went on to become ‘one of the
greatest devotees of the Lord Narayana. If Prahlad had thought similarly would
this have happened?
If Sage Narada had thought, why talk about spirituality
and divinity of soul to a highway robber and murderer, we wouldn’t have had the
Great Sage Valmiki and may be no ‘Ramayana’ too amidst us! (I am assuming that all
of you know this story!)
You and I can’t decide who deserves and who doesn’t.
Even assuming they don’t have ‘punya karma’ (which can never happen to anyone –
punya karma can be less in a certain area but never ‘no punya’ in a person’s
life – not possible!), then it’s all the more it’s our duty to talk about ‘help’
and ‘right choices’ and ‘possiblity of them experiencing their divinity’ to
them regularly. Because, someone should try and why can’t that someone be YOU? Do
you know what’s the national character of Japanese that turned a war devasted
country to one of the richest countries in the world “if one can do it, I can
do it and will do it”. Let’s embrace it!
