Guest guest Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 The following is so much bullcrap. It's all a defense about why god won't give you what you pray for. It finds you so wrong that god will not listen to you. This a terrible teaching yet it just goes on and on. This teacher is one of those with the big mouth who is never quiet and claims to know everything about everything. There are some people like that, who have no shame or self-control, and want the power over others, and here is another one of them. This is the kind of teaching that keeps people as spiritual slaves.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 There are three types of devotees. The low-level devotee asks for a boon like a demon. He does not give any freedom to the Lord. He decides that something is good for him and asks the Lord to give it. The devotee acts like a master and is indirectly treating the Lord as his servant. The Master asks the servant to do a particular thing without any comment. The middle class devotees ask the Lord to do whatever is good for them. They give some freedom to the Lord in deciding, which is good and which is bad for them. Upto this point they give freedom to the Lord. After this point the Lord has no freedom and He has to do good only. Thus these devotees give 50 percent freedom to the Lord. The best devotee gives 100 percent freedom to the Lord. He asks the Lord to do whatever the Lord likes. This devotee is prepared to receive the bad also if it can please the Lord. His only aim is that the Lord should be pleased by doing whatever He likes. This devotee feels that he is only an inert means for the play of the Lord by which the Lord is entertained. A player beats the ball by foot and is entertained. The devotee also likes to receive continuous sufferings, if such sufferings can entertain the Lord.When Jesus was doing the last prayer, He tried to avoid the future agony of death. For a moment He was vibrated with the forthcoming agony of crucification. But immediately He regained His originality and ended the prayer by saying “Let Thy will will be doneâ€. He said finally that He is prepared to suffer if that is the will of the Lord. This is the best devotion. posted by: His servant at the lotus feet of shri datta swami www.universal-spirituality.org epston wrote: ......
