[Ms. Thrylokya asked: Swāmi, every soul enjoys the world because it is not constant. When we get bored of one thing, we'll switch to a new thing. The enjoyment lies in the change or the feeling of newness. God appears to be old and constant but this notion is not true because souls which have attained God never chose the world again. Hence, can we conclude that God is old, new, predictable and unpredictable at the same time?]
Swāmi Replied:- You cannot analyse certain aspects with mathematical analysis. Love of a devotee and beauty of God are such aspects. Attraction is the basic form of love. It is not the question of continuity of time, but, it is the question of intensity of the attraction. We may get a spoon of divine nectar, but, its taste is quite different and surpasses the tastes of all worldly drinks. In this aspect, the divine nectar is distinguished from all the worldly drinks. Even if we get pots and pots of worldly drinks continuously, we cannot give higher place to worldly drinks in the angle that they are always available. We keep the divine nectar always in the highest place due to its unimaginable taste. Continuous availability cannot compensate the quality of the taste.
