some views on Gayatri's doubts..

[Guest guest]

Dear Gayatri,

I think the questions you have put is not a wise way to understand

God and his Maya.

Answer for 1

I doubt that God has to think so much and then do some thing.

Answer 4

Your example of mass deaths would need a hell lot of karmic

calculations!I don't know how perfectly these calculations may

happen!! But the question is does HE need to do all that?...like some

poor Tom, Dick or Harry who tries to adjust his daily expenses from

his small income??!! You have said that - " even a hype computer or

mathematical model cannot achive this " ??! Seems that what all saints

have been trying to tell us about GOD's infinite power is actually

true!

 

Answer for 2 and 3

Why do you think that money can only be attained through good

karmas?! Why can't bad people have lots of money and grand

positions?.. why cant a person murder or cheat for money and become

millionare ? Here the question is " why can't one? " not " why should

not one? " !Ofcourse it is wrong to bad things and one does suffer

eventually.But God's love is perfect and impartiall! whether a sinner

or a saint- but such love means total freedom also. He has given us

this 'divine will' and freedom to use it. It is the same 'divine

will' of a bad politician as is the 'divine will' of a saint. Its

just they have chosen to put it in a different directions and would

bear the results accordingly - they cannot escape the divine law of

karma. Also why should God make this world and its incidents such

that it makes perfect 'sense' to 'us'?! For example a great saint for

us humans might be a terrible murderer in the point of view of

a " mosquito " which he killed last night!? Why should we think that

our point of view that " he is a saint " has more weightage than that

of the poor mosquito?. Just because it is not a human? Then what is

the right standard of comprehension ?. What is life? What is death?

What is money or power or nuclear disaters? Also sometimes incidents

happen in our life that reflect God's 'grace' but its only

a 'reflection', not the scale! Can we use any of these things to

measure and define Lord's wisdom and his love? What is the scale to

measure Him ?.. people have tried for centuries and are still trying

hard to figure out!! Lets understand God by climbing up to Him but

lets not bring HIM down and limit Him to the level of karmic

calculations and our mental and scientific understandings.

 

 

Lord krishna says in Bhagwad Geeta " mama maya duratyaya " (My Maya is

very hard " ). the very word 'maya' means 'illusion'. It is the way it

is because it is the way it was designed to be!. Just like Video

games?. The most enjoying ones are those which are terribly confusing

and it almost takes many many months to reach the final level of the

game! Lots of characters die and you have like 5 or 10 lives!!. If we

humans can make such video games, imagine what video game God can

make?!!!. To understand this video game of Maya is almost impossible,

like the confusing paths in a forest. The moment we reach Him and

know Him, we see this dark forest of Maya under His Grand Light, not

under the poor light system of reasoning and mental understanding

which can only show us like a candle light shows till a few feet.

Reason and understanding will always say " Oh! Hitler was such a

monster why did God even choose to create him!! " Don't mistake! Lets

use reason and logic for our purpose of crossing this jungle of maya,

not measuring Lord's ways or His wisdom and Love.

Pranams,

Sriram.
