Ramana Maharshi answers to the question God is perfect. Why did He create the world imperfect

[Guest guest]

Devotee: God is perfect. Why did He create the world imperfect? The work shares the nature of the author. But here it is not so.Sri Bhagavan: Who is it that raises the question?D.: I - the individual.

 

M.: Are you apart from God that you ask this question?So long as you consider yourself the body you see the world as external. The imperfections appear to you. God is perfection. His work also is perfection. But you see it as imperfection because of your wrong identification.

D.: Why did the Self manifest as this miserable world?M.: In order that you might seek it. Your eyes cannot see themselves. Place a mirror before them and they see themselves. Similarly with the creation. " See yourself first and then see the whole world as the Self. "

D.: So it amounts to this - that I should always look within.M.: Yes.D.: Should I not see the world at all?M.: You are not instructed to shut your eyes from the world. You are only to " see yourself first and then see the whole world as the Self " . If you consider yourself as the body the world appears to be external. If you are the Self the world appears as Brahman.
