1. Can we say that Lord Datta is the only true God present in all the incarnations?
[Shri Satthireddy asked: Paadanamaskararam Swamiji, Many preachers say that their God is true God. Can we say that Lord Datta is only the true God present in all the incarnations? Can we install the idol of Lord Datta in every temple, church and mosque? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in question itself please forgive this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐๐๐]
Swami replied: Your concept is correct theoretically but not practically possible. Moreover, the original God is unimaginable, who is present in every incarnation. God Datta also acquired the unimaginable power of the unimaginable God and looks like any form that was imagined by any religion. How can one then fix the universal common form of God Datta? Datta only means God given through a medium having unimaginable powers due to which the form of God Datta appears in any way as liked by the devotees of a religion. Therefore, this concept must be understood intellectually and no specific form of God Datta shall be selected by any religion. The incarnations of God Datta of all religions are visible, but the inner form of God Datta can’t be specified with any single form. You can take any form you like for God Datta and one of such forms taken by the Hindu religion is having three heads and six hands. Hence, we can try to apply this concept to various sub-religions of Hinduism.
2. Can we say that any soul can become God by the will of the Human incarnation?
[Since there is no difference between the Unimaginable God, the Energetic Incarnation or the Human Incarnation of God, can we say that any soul can become God by the will of the Human incarnation? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in question itself, please forgive this beggar satthireddy ๐๐๐๐๐]
Swami replied: If I allow this question, tomorrow, you will say that you are alone God Datta and day after tomorrow, you may say that you are the unimaginable God and next day after day after tomorrow you will say that no incarnation is God except yourself! The unimaginable God and God Datta are exactly one and the same except one difference that the former is without medium and the latter is with media. Any soul can become God if God Datta wishes so. No soul becomes God by its own will.
3. Does every soul that dies in the hands of God gets salvation, or atleast some reformation?
[Swamiji, Bhiishma wanted to die in the hands of Lord Krishna, but it didn't happen. Although Hiranyakashipu, putana, Shishupala had only bad intentions towards Lord Krishna, they died in His hands and got salvation. How should we understand this? Does every soul which dies in the hands of God gets salvation or atleast some reformation Swamiji? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in question itself please forgive this beggar satthireddy ๐๐๐๐๐]
Swami replied: Bhiishma is a complicated soul even though he is a good person. The other demons were straight forward souls even though they are bad. Bhishma supported injustice for the sake of the oath taken by him with ignorance and ego. A straight forward villain is better than a curved hero.
4. What is the internal meaning of Ahalya turning into stone?
[Swamiji, what is the internal meaning of Ahalya turning into stone? How could she do penance for such long years being a stone? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please forgive this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐๐๐]
Swami replied: Stone means not an inert item existing in the world. A teacher scolds the ignorant student ‘your head is inert like a rock’. This does not mean that the head is really inert like a stone. Ahalya was alive like a plant having respiration, but having no active brain like a human being. The soul was undergoing a lot of agony. She committed the sin of doing illegal sex with Indra. She was not cheated by Indra even though Indra came in the form of her husband. She recognized him as Indra and met with him. For this sin, her husband gave the curse. Now, here you may raise a doubt that the miraculous power of Rama is not exhibited since a real stone was not turned to Ahalya. If a person in coma is made normal just by the touch of the foot, is it not a miracle? There is no difference between a real stone and Ahalya because she was in coma state. This can be stated as a miracle in which a stone is converted in to an alive intellectual lady.
5. It is recommended to be a Sthitaprajna, but Radha left her body when she learned of God Krishna's death. How do I understand this?
[Swamiji, everybody advises us to be a Sthitaprajna. But in case of true devotees like Radha, we see extreme emotions and lack of patience when it comes to love for God. She left her body when She heard the demise of God Krishna. How to understand this Swamiji? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please forgive this beggar satthireddy ๐๐๐๐๐]
Swami replied: She did not commit suicide. She died due to shock of the news of Krishna’s death. Sthitaprajna is balance of mind in worldly life. Emotion in spiritual life is far better than balance of mind in worldly life. Loss of money in educating the son or daughter is better than earning money through sinful deeds. Such loss is real benefit and such real benefit is the real loss if you find the future results of such deeds.
6. Does the expansion of the universe happen in a horizontal or vertical direction?
[Shri Satthireddy asked: Padanamaskaram Swamiji, Swamiji, it is said that space is expanding. Does it happen in horizontal or vertical direction? In Datta Veda Sutram, it is mentioned that space is also bending. can You please explain this concept? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please teach to this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐]
Swami replied: Space is bending along the boundary of an object and this is a scientific concept. Space is expanding only when a soul like an angel tries to touch the boundary of the universe. Then, the universe or space expands so that the soul can never touch the boundary of the universe. If the boundary is touched, the unimaginable God is touched. Unimaginable God can’t be touched even by imagination. The universe is finite for God, which becomes infinite for the soul through expansion.
7. How do I understand that the size of God remains unchanged even though space expands?
[Swamiji, how to understand the concept that the size of Unimaginable God remains unchanged although space is expanding? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please teach to this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐]
Swami replied: When you said that God is unimaginable, will He have any size? Size involves spatial dimensions and the unimaginable God is beyond space.
8. Can we say that Unimaginable God exists everywhere in the creation?
[Unimaginable God exists in Human Incarnation or Sadguru but is invisible to us. The same unimaginable God may exist everywhere in the imaginable creation as well and be invisible to us as always. Hence, can we say that Unimaginable God exists everywhere in the creation? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please teach to this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐๐๐]
Swami replied: Unimaginable God is beyond space or universe and this means that unimaginable God is not in the creation. He is around the creation (Sarvamฤvแนtya tiแนฃแนญhati – Gita). Unimaginable God entered the ultimate divine space (Parama Vyoma) and merged with the first energetic form to become Lord Datta and this is the permanent residential address of the unimaginable God or Parabrahman. Lord Datta enters the universe and merges with a selected human form to become human incarnation to preach true spiritual knowledge to humanity. Therefore, unimaginable God is not present in the universe except in the contemporary human incarnation.
9. Why am I getting the dreams showing future incidents?
[Swamiji, I am able to see some future incidents in my dreams by Your divine grace. But I am unable to change it because i recollect the dream only after it happens in reality. Why i am getting those dreams Swamiji? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please teach to this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐]
Swami replied: You don’t care much about these points. Sometimes, the ideas of previous births also come in the dream in the form of some incidents. If these incidents are becoming true in this physical world, it indicates God’s grace.
10. What is the meaning of identification of Human Incarnation of God?
[Swamiji, many converted Christians say that they have found true God in God Jesus only even without giving a trial of reading their previous religious scriptures. What is the true meaning of identification of the Human Incarnation of God? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please teach to this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐]
Swami replied: Jesus was also a human incarnation of God. God comes as incarnation in every human generation. Identifying the contemporary human incarnation is a wise thing of spiritual intellectuals.
11. How can the soul see God as female when God is the supreme male?
[Sage Bilhana was advised to love God Krishna in place of his girlfriend. He successfully replaced God Krishna in place of his girlfriend and became a great devotee. But how can soul see God as female when God is the supreme male? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please teach to this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐๐๐]
Swami replied: Replacing the girlfriend by Krishna does not mean the homosexual affair. Love need not be always connected to sex only. Draupadi as sister of Krishna defeated all the wives and darlings of Krishna by her sacrifice in which all the sweet devotees got defeated. Love actually means service and sacrifice. You take the case of Radha. Even though she was married to Ayanaghosha, she remained chaste in the love of Krishna. She sacrificed her parents and relatives in this affair before the love to Krishna. This sacrifice is the love and love does not mean her sexual affairs with Krishna. Sex is only one way of the expression of love whereas several other ways of sacrifice also exist as expressions of love. When Krishna’s finger was cut and was severely bleeding, His sister Draupadi tore her new sari to use the torn piece of sari as bandage for the finger immediately. All the sweet darlings and wives, who were having sex with Krishna could not tear their saris just for a small piece of cloth to be used for their darling Krishna! Sacrifice of Draupadi surpassed the love of all the sex-mates of Krishna. Love is a big tree with several branches and one branch is the way of sex.
12. Did Lord Dattaatreya have a Sadguru?
[Swamiji, did Lord Dattaatreya (who was born to Sage Atri and Anasuya) have a Sadguru for Himself? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please teach to this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐]
Swami replied: Is there a planet to cause shining for the sun?
13. Does the Unimaginable God exist even if multiverse exist?
[Swamiji, You have kindly revealed to us that the Unimaginable God exists beyond the border of this Universe (creation). But there can be a possibility of a multiverse also. Does Unimaginable God still exist in that case as well ? Swamiji if any mistakes are there in the question itself please teach to this beggar satthireddy๐๐๐]
Swami replied: Beyond the boundary of the Multiverse or multi-space, only the unimaginable God exists.
