'I am Realized' - - -

[Guest guest]

Praying for the sake of poor people is not the true path. The Lord is more kind

than you towards those poor people because all are His children only. You are

only a brother of these poor people and He is the father of all of you. The love

of Father is far greater than the love of a brother. When you pray the God to

show kindness on your brothers is it not insulting your Father? The Father has

given punishment to your brothers for their sins. If you just help them that is

also interference in the administration of the divine Father.

 

The best way is to help them in all the ways practically either before or

after preaching them the divine knowledge and make them become devotees of the

divine Father. Devotion will purify the hearts and make them eligible to receive

the grace from God. He can only solve their problems permanently. Your help is

only temporary. Therefore, help the poor practically and make them become

devotees. The practical social service mixed with spiritual mission will please

the Lord. The spiritual preaching will change the hearts and serves the purpose

of the punishment. Punishment is only for the change and not for any revenge.

 

A poor man is suffering and poverty is the punishment given for the previous

sin committed by the soul. If such a poor person is helped, it amounts to

interference in the administration of God. The punishment is given for a change

and you need not sympathise it. The parental love of the Lord is greater than

your brotherly love. Only the grace of God can end the punishment forever.

Therefore you preach divine knowledge and devotion and then assist that poor

person. The divine knowledge and devotion will bring a change in him and you

have served the purpose of the punishment. Then God is pleased with you and also

will show grace on that poor person. The poverty will vanish forever. Therefore

social service must be integrated with spiritual mission. Sankara told the same

(Loka sevaka matha khandanam) and Mother Theresa did the same. Mere social

service is like a simple boarding and lodging given to the hostel students

without the primary teaching in the classes. Therefore, the aim of

terrorism gives only temporary and apparent relief whereas the spiritual

mission based social work is a permanent solution. The discoveries of scientists

without any spiritual basis, which were expected to serve the society, have

harmed the society. If one reads, the latest environmental science, it becomes

clear.

Just be kind and help people and do good, and let the labels take care of

and that's two of you right there.
