Homogenity - Prayers & Actions

[Guest guest]

Divine Message of His Holiness Shri Datta Swami

 

Whenever, you pray the Lord, be careful about the meaning of the prayer. You

must utter that only, which you can really practice. In the prayer you say that

the Lord is everything for you. You cannot practice this. You cannot prove

this as long as the Lord remains formless or in the energetic form or as the

statue. But when the Lord comes in the human form and asks you to sacrifice a

little for His sake, you will go back. For this inconvenience only you deny the

human form. You like the statue or formless aspect of or energetic form of God

because they cannot ask you for any proof of your prayer. You want that God

should believe your prayer and should blindly sanction whatever you ask. You

think that God is innocent and should believe whatever you say without any

practical proof or test. This is the main reason for the denial of human form

of God. When you offer the food to the Lord, the formless God or the energetic

form or the statue will not take even a single

particle of your offered food. But if you offer the same food to the human

form, you will not get back a single particle to eat. This is the reason for

denying the human form of the Lord. First you must be sure of the extent of

value you give to God. Then, you must be sure of the extent of your faith when

you meet the human incarnation and in recognizing Him as the Lord. If you have

full value for the Lord and if you recognize the human incarnation, the full

value to God must be proved practically in the case of that human incarnation.

If you have full value for God but do not recognize the human incarnation, then

there is no opportunity for you to prove your full faith to God. In such case

your full value to God is false and you are Hippocratic. Jesus gave full value

to God and sacrificed His life for the sake of God. In the end He told the Lord

that His will should be done. When He accepted the will of God to be done, He

did not feel adversely in the crucification.

Since the crucification was the will of the Lord He followed it sincerely

because He told that His will must be done. Therefore, whatever is told must be

practiced. During crucification He never asked the Lord to protect Him and stop

the crucification. If He had asked for it, it would have been stopped

immediately by the miraculous power of the God. Therefore, unless you have the

determination of practice you should not utter any thing before the Lord. Once

you utter you must follow it at least in the case of the Lord.

 

Most of our prayers are lies only and even one percent cannot be practiced.

By doing such false prayers one invokes the anger of the Lord only and not the

grace of the Lord. Whatever value you have for the God should be proved in

practice and such value only should be mentioned in your words while praying the

Lord. Whatever, little love you have for God, mention that much only in words.

The God will not be displeased for your little love. In fact He is more pleased

because you are telling truth before Him. There are some people who call every

greater human being as the Lord. The purpose of such usage is only to have some

benefit from that greater human being. Thus, the word Lord has become means to

achieve the selfish ends in the hands of clever materialistic people. The false

human incarnations may be trapped by such clever people. But the real human

incarnation will get reversed.

 

People are always under the illusion of majority. People think that whatever

is done by the majority is always good. They expect their son to study, earn a

job, marry and have children. The sons of majority are doing like this.

Therefore, people think that this is the good path. Therefore, they expect

their sons also to follow the same good path. If any son tries to deviate from

this path the parents are worried. Ofcourse the deviation from this path may be

towards positive or negative side. If one is leaving this earth, he may fly to

the sky or may fall into the downward pit called ‘Patala’. Both are deviations.

Similarly, if the son deviates from this normal path and becomes a lazy fellow

and is trapped by bad habits the deviation is negative. In such case the son

should be forced to the normal path. He should be brought to the ground from

the pit. But if the son deviates from the normal path and is turned towards God

by becoming a monk, the parents should encourage

and appreciate. If somebody is leaving the ground and is flying to the sky, it

should be appreciated. Therefore, the negative deviation should be condemned

and the positive deviation should be appreciated. The Scriptures say that if a

couple is not having a son, they will go to the hell called ‘Put’ (Punnama

Naraka). Does this mean that Sankara, Rama Krishna Parahamsa etc., who did not

have sons have gone to the hell? Does this mean the demons who had sons have

not gone to the hell? This statement of the scripture has to be understood with

reference to the negative deviation. This means that one should marry and get a

son by leading a disciplined regular family life and one should not be unmarried

and should not be trapped by bad habits like moving with prostitutes. Thus,

with reference to this negative deviation only the normal path is appreciated.

This means that you should be on the ground and should not fall into the pit.

This does not mean that you should be on the

ground and should not fly to the sky. This is not with reference to the

positive deviation. Therefore, the production of a son is appreciated with

reference to a debatcherous life. But it should not be appreciated with

reference to the life of a monk. Earning one rupee is appreciated with

reference to the loss of money. But it need be appreciated with reference to

earning 100 rupees.

 

The concept of majority is capturing the minds of even spiritual people. The

spiritual preacher is encouraged to deliver the knowledge if a large gathering

appears. When Krishna preached Gita there were lakhs of soldiers there. But He

preached Gita only to Arjuna because he was the only deserving devotee. If any

spiritual preacher is in the place of Krishna, he would have requested for a

mike so that he can preach Gita to all the people in the war!! Datta is

surrounded only by very few deserving disciples like Pingala Naga, Alarka,

Parasurama, Skanda etc., Sankara preached the commentary only to the four

deserving disciples. A Professor is surrounded by a very few research scholars

engaged in discussions. If you visit a schoolteacher he is surrounded by a

hundred children who are not listening anything.
