If Merits & sins are God will, why do we take births on account of our merits and sins?

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

1. All our activities - punya (merits) or sins, are

according God's will. If that is the case, then why do

we take births on account of our merits and sins?

 

Sri.Sri.Muralidhara Swamiji.

 

Although you are performing good deeds or sins

according to 'prarabda' or God's will, the moment you

attach ownership and feel that you are responsible for

the good or the bad, you get entangled in the vicious

'Karma' cycle.

 

If you attain a state where you don't feel proud for

the good you do and don't feel guilty for the bad,

then you are relieved from the cycle of births and

deaths. However this is more easily said than done.

 

Jivan Muktas live in this world even after they have

attained liberation because these factors do not

affect them.

2. Will a mentally retarded person know about God? How

do we make them understand this? I believe that they

are very near to God even if their birth is deprived

of the normal activities.

 

Sri.Sri.Muralidhara Swamiji.

 

Those who were born as mentally retarded people in

this birth were great sadhaks in their previous birth.

In spite of their Sadhanas, due to the wrongs that

they might have committed, they are born so in this

birth. They don’t accrue any merits (‘punya’) or sins

during this period. After having experienced the

fruits of their past deeds, they attain liberation.
