Guest guest Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 Lord Vishnu (Paramathma) alone can remove the dirt around your atma (I entity in you). A short story: Once a mischievous son in his very tender age started troubling his father. Father told him hereafter for every mistake / sin of yours I will put one nail each on the wall in one of the room. The boy did not pay attention to it. As he was grown up one day he felt humiliated that the entire room was full with nails. He cried and knelt before his father and asked, ˜Dad! How to overcome this way of life? " . Father said, ˜Hereafter for every good deed of yours I will remove one nail each from the wall " . The grown up boy decided to do good and shortly with great struggle all the nails were made removed. Now again the boy went and asked his father, ˜Dad! I am happy that all the nails were removed from the wall, but the marks are still left? How to remove the marks? " . Then the father said, ˜If a currency is spoiled by repeated use by many, the Reserve Bank alone can take and return a new note. Similarly, we have been doing good and bad repeatedly over several births. Lord Vishnu (Paramathma) alone can clean the marks around our atma. Please ask your father of father Lord Vishnu. In this story the boy represents mind and father represents buddhi (Intellect) and father of father is Atma (Spirit) which is nothing but the spark of Supreme Paramathma. Once Manas (mind) merges with Buddhi (Intellect) through a SadGuru, the path is directed towards Paramathma. Otherwise it is diverted and danced towards this World ceaselessly. P.
