Ramana Maharshi says Each person had an allotted role to play in this world

[Guest guest]

2-2-46 Morning

 

A visitor told Bhagavan that he was working for Harijan uplift, that he and

his co-workers in the cause had darshan of Mahatma Gandhi and got his

blessings, that Mahatma Gandhi told them that if they could bring about

marriages between Harijan girls and higher caste gentlemen, such marriages

would have his blessings; and that he (visitor) would like to have

Bhagavan’s views in the matter.

 

Bhagavan said, “If Mahatma Gandhi has said so, we will all hear what he has

said. What more is there for us to do? He is a distinguished man and is

working in that field.What have we to do with that?â€

 

Turning to us, Bhagavan added,“If I open my mouth, something will appear in

the papers that so-and-so has also said such-and-such a thing. The next day

there will be people to criticise it. Our business is to keep quiet. If we

enter into all these, people will naturally ask, and justifiably, ‘Why is he

interfering in all these instead of keeping quiet?’

 

Similarly if Mahatma Gandhi keeps quiet leaving aside all his

activities,they will ask, ‘Why is he keeping quiet instead of engaging in

all these activities?’ He must do what he has come for. We must do what we

have come for.â€
