On judging others - - -

[Guest guest]

You have to live in this world according to the instructions of the Lord.

Regarding your life in this world, the essence of His instruction is that, you

should be ‘deceived’ by others and not deceive others, you should be ‘harmed by

others but not harm anyone, you should not insult others, but you can be

insulted by others and you should be abused by others but not abuse others. One

cannot attain God by doing penance even for centuries. But there is one easiest

way to attain God.

 

When you are deceived by others or when you are harmed by others or when you

are insulted by others or when you are abused by others, the Lord comes to your

side. It means you have attained God. Therefore, you should thank the people who

have deceived or harmed or insulted or abused you. They have helped you in

attaining God by the easiest way. Therefore you should not deceive or harm or

insult or scold even such people in return. They might have passed on the

punishment to you, for your sins on the will of God. In that case also, they

have cleared your sins at an early stage without further interest on the

punishment. Even in that way you should thank them.

 

Some people say that even good people are unnecessarily harmed. They criticize

God. You cannot decide any person as a good person. Did you observe him every

minute from his birth? You also think yourself as a good person. Are you aware

of your sins done in your childhood? You might have harmed an innocent insect in

your childhood. Do you remember that? Even mental feelings are sins, which may

not be expressed in words and actions. The feelings of the mind are the source

of words and actions. Therefore the feeling may not hurt others today. But

tomorrow it will hurt others which will come out in words and actions. Infact,

intention is given more importance in the crime according to law. The judge

gives more importance to the intention in giving the punishment. You are walking

on the road and the ant is killed by your foot, without any intention. There is

no punishment for such sins. But when you kill the same ant with intention, you

are punished by God. Therefore mind is

the source of action. If somebody harmed really a good person, then also leave

it to God. You should not revenge. Why?

 

The reason is that you cannot judge the exact nature and line of the case. You

do not remember your own sins. Sometimes you do the sin thinking that it is

good. You cannot be the standard in judging your own sins. Only the Lord can

decide. Therefore, if somebody harmed really a good person, in the view of the

Lord also, then the Lord himself will punish him. You cannot take the law and

order into your hand. You have to refer the case to the court. Let the Judge

decide and punish the criminal. Therefore the Lord said, “Revenge is Mine”. If

the revenge is justified, the Lord will certainly punish. The Lord will not

revenge if you pray Him to do so. The Lord, will not excuse even if you

recommend the unjust case.
