thoughts. Just a few days back there was discussion on some degrading remarks

against some deities. Sri Krishna dis His karma and left for siddhashram.

Whatever is being said about him is just the personal agenda of the people who

make various commentaries about His life. Maheshvar Shiva are engaged in their

own karma. People may compare him favourably or unfavourably, that is not His

concern. No Devi or Devta is concerned about the comparasions being made

amongst them. These are just some humans only who keep on burdening themselves

with negative karma by saying unfavourable things about one cosmic power or the

other.Sri krishna or Maheshawara Shiva need no champion for promoting their

cause. Their own karma shine like million Suns. By entering into negative

comparasion we knowingly or unknowingly criticise our ishta devta or some one

else's ishta devta. We wont gain anything but loose everything.If someone says

something negative our Guru or ishta devta

then it is our prime duty to counter that. It does not mean that we start

criticing the ishta or Guru of other person. We need to just take that person

to the task. We are sure that the other person is wrong and will get very

little help from his ishta Devta or Guru. Without making any reference of his

Guru or his ishta devta we can very well teach that person alesson of life

time. Our own trust on our Guru and our ishta devta will only help us, not the

cricism of the ishta or Guru of the offending person. We well know that Sri

krishna never did his karma thinking that he will get mileage against some

other divine personalities. Sri Krishna did what he preached. He did his karma

continuously as per the knwoledge He gained from His Guru without any

attachement to the results. Sri Krsihna new that Karma will bring results

whether you think about them or not. Thinking about result weakens the resolve

to follow the directions given by Guru, therefore it is always better just

to do the karma without engaging our mind in the end result.Sri Krishna's karma

only revealed that he is Poorna Purusha. Sri Krishna never compared himself

with anyone else. He just did his karma and moved on. His karma has been etched

on every nook and corner of this Universe. If some so called followers of Sri

Krishna say anything offending about other deities we should not associate that

with Sri Krishna Himslef. Maheshwara Shiva are what they are will reamin so no

matter what people say or do not say . Our Rsishis say that there is no

difference between Guru and Shiva. In a single sentence everything has been

said time and again. There are so many websites making offensive reamrks about

our deities and ancient knowledge.What do we do then?Send each and very such

web link to this discussion group? We suppose you will not agree for that.

Tolerating the insult of Ishta and Guru is the worst act for

a sadhak, but acting is the same fashion is not the lesson for offender. By

exposing hundereds of other sadhaks to same negative propoganda what will we

achieve?Ofcourse our Gurubhais can help us to forget those negative remarks by

saying few positive and motivating words, but that rarely happens. Most of the

time there will be a counter attack of arguements. These arguements will

neither weaken the offeneder nor will it teach any lesson to him. We leave it

to each individual how he acts as per his faith and conviction and uphold the

dignity of his Guru and ishta.The common agenda for all of us is contiunously

doing Guru sadhna, Guru sewa and sadhnas given by Gurudev. This common act only

adds to the strength of every individual to withstand such devastating

obstacles. On personal level also we can also free ouselves from the disturbing

thoughts by regularly listening to some cassette of Gurudev again and again.

This method has been suggested

by Gurudev only. They have said that whenever we feel uncomfortable after

speaking to someone or by coming across some negative thoughts then we should

immediately listen to some cassette of Gurudev so that those negative thoughts

are wiped off our mind and we feel at peace with ourselves and much relieved.

The Guru's word do this by the powerof Tapasya of Guru behind those

words.Therefore regularly listeting to Gurudev's words help in overcoming the

day to day hidden attack of disturbing thoughts coming to us. This is the best

method. Even self motivation by other means can not match this.
