Can I give only bad in exchange for bad?





….contd…..


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

And  click link http://www.hindilyrics.net/lyrics/of-Kuchh%20Toh%20Log%20Kahenge.html 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!
