God Is Above the Personality

O Learned and Devoted Servants of God,

Energy is inert because it is only a property i.e., it is the work of God and so depends on God. Energy appears as matter and awareness, which are its different forms. Beauty is a property of matter. The face of a girl is made of matter. Beauty is the form of matter. Apart from beauty, you are also seeing the shining on her face, which is light. Apart from matter and awareness, energy exists in the form of light, heat, sound, electricity etc., also. You are more attracted to her internal personality also, which consists of beautiful qualities like love, generosity, wisdom, obedience etc. Any quality, good or bad, is a form of awareness.

Thus, energy in the form of matter, awareness and other forms like light in the shining, sound in the sweet voice etc., attracts you a lot. But, when the girl becomes old, the facial form changes due to reduction in matter. The shining disappears due to the lack of matter that radiates. When the girl dies, the face is totally converted into atoms and the light is mixed in the sea of universal energy. The form of the matter, called as beauty is also totally disappearing because the cause disintegrates. The pot disappears, when the mud particles separate. This proves that the beauty is unreal like the pot. Reality is always eternal. These atoms are converted into energy at the end when the universe is destroyed. Now the point is that you are no more attracted to the atoms or to the final form of energy. The eternal reality does not attract you. Only the unreal form attracts you. The same face in its original form as matter or energy, which is the real essence does not attract you. The unreal form that is based on the matter or energy attracts you.

Similarly, the qualities are attracting you as the internal personality. The qualities whether good or bad are the waves of awareness. The water is reality but the wave, which is a form of water, is unreal. When the qualities subside and pure-standstill awareness results like standstill water, you are not attracted by the pure unvibrated lump of awareness (suddha chit). A coma patient without any feeling and a person in deep sleep are examples of existence of life energy, which is inert energy only. A person in meditation or a child without feelings is example of pure awareness without qualities. You are not attracted to such pure awareness because the qualities are absent (Nirguna). This is Brahman of Advaita philosophers! This awareness is also basically inert energy only.

Thus, the lump of matter by some unreal from (beauty) and the lump of awareness by some unreal vibrations, called as good qualities, create attraction. These attractions are towards the unreal forms of matter and unreal forms of awareness. Shankara told that it is foolishness to get attracted to the unreal form of matter since the body of the girl is made of flesh and fat only (Etat mamsa vasadi vikaram). The Gita says that the world is fooled by the qualities, which are only the waves (feelings) of awareness (Mohitam nabhijanati). The gross body is made of five elements. If the five elements separate in the form of atoms, the gross body disappears. Thus, gross body is only a form or an unreality. Ofcourse, the five elements are real. These five elements are transformed into energy. Such energy is finally real from the point of the soul. Similarly, when all the qualities subside in the awareness like the waves in water, the qualities are also unreal. The subtle body is made of these qualities. Only awareness becomes real and not the subtle body. Matter is the material of gross body along with some forms of inert energy like light, heat, sound etc. Awareness is the material present in qualities. Matter, energy and awareness are real items for the soul. These three can be considered as the cause of all forms and qualitites of the world. These three ultimately are forms of energy only and energy is the ultimate cause. Matter, awareness and forms of inert energy like light, heat etc., are considered as the secondary forms of the ultimate cause (energy). The ultimate and secondary forms of cause are real for the soul. The soul itself is awareness, which is the secondary form of cause. Therefore, for the soul the awareness and other equal secondary forms (matter and other forms of inert energy) cannot be unreal. The soul is in equal status with these forms. But the forms of matter and forms of awareness, which are the external (beauty) and internal (qualities) personalities are unreal and illusions only. The attraction itself is a feeling and when its objects are also unreal like beauty and qualities, then such attraction is complete ignorance. The internal personality may be valid more than the external beauty because of its subtle nature, yet, it itself is unreal. The Veda says that the effect like pot is unreal and the cause (mud) is real (Mruttiketyeva…), which means that matter like mud is real but form like pot is unreal for the soul. Here, the Veda says that pot is unreal and mud is real and the mud-pot is the concept but not the simile because it itself is a part of the world. The binding energy of the mud particles in the pot, which is the extra item in the pot is negligible compared to the clarity of the mud particles and is considered as almost unreal (Mithya). The invisible binding energy and the visible mud (matter) are inter-convertible and therefore, the word mud itself includes the binding energy.

Physical Form of Incarnation

Shirdi Saibaba asked a devotee “Am I not your Lord Krishna?” Let us compare both, who are the incarnations of God. Let us take the beauty of gross bodies. Krishna is handsome whereas Baba is not so attractive. But beauty is unreal and is not the sign of God. God is beautiful and so Baba is also handsome. A fellow loves a girl, who is not good looking. When you raise that point, he says, “See with my eyes”. It means that his love on that girl is so blind that the particular girl is the only beautiful girl in this world. Love is blind, but love should not be blind in the case of world. Love should be blind in the case of God. Baba looks beautiful since Baba is God. This blind love should not be extended to the world and therefore, an ugly girl should not be beautiful to the eyes of any person.

Let us see the qualities of both. Krishna exhibited bad qualities whereas Baba exhibited good qualities only. The qualities belong to subtle body and therefore, the qualities cannot be the sign since God is beyond subtle body. A quality or feeling is unreal compared to its basic material, awareness. God is good and therefore, Krishna is good. God is beyond gross body and so the unreal beauty of the gross body (with reference to its basic material i.e. matter) cannot be His sign. Similarly, the unreal quality also cannot be His sign. But this concept should not be extended to the world and a son with bad qualitites should not look good to the parents due to again the same blind love. Dhrutarashtra, blind externally as well as internally, could neither see the cruel face nor could see the bad qualitites of his son, Duryodhana. Whatever true in Pravrutti is reversed in Nivrutti. Therefore, for devotees (Nivrutti) the face of Baba is beautiful and the qualitites of Krishna are good. This should not be extended to the world (Pravrutti) and therefore, the cruel face of a demon is not beautiful and the bad qualities of even your son cannot be treated as good qualitites. The Veda says that both Pravrutti and Nivrutti are opposite to each other (Duramete Viparite)

Since Advaita philosopher says that the awareness is God, shall we recognise Krishna and Baba as God since both have awareness in them? In such case, every living being having awareness is God. If you say that the awareness without qualities is God, an intoxicated person has awareness without feelings or qualities and then he should be God! Therefore, the soul (causal body) is not God, since God is beyond souls and controls the souls (Atmeshvaram– Veda, Atmanam sarvadehinam– Bhagavatam).

But, there should be some sign for God to detect Him, because God is beyond the entire creation and is completely unimaginable. But, He gives His experience when He enters the human body. But then, how to differentiate that divine human body from other human beings? God has selected one quality of Sattvam i.e., Jnanam (divine knowledge). Both Krishna and Baba were preachers. But then, how to distinguish Him from other preachers? The Veda says that His knowledge is true and infinite (Satyam Jnanam Anantam) and is special, which is not possible for others (Prajnanam Brahma). God speaks truth always, which is harsh and is not liked by you in general. Other preachers modify the truth to please you and to get some benefit from you. God only has guts to speak the truth, which alone can save you, because God is not bothered about anybody’s favour or displeasure. It is special because, the way of explanation is not possible to any soul in the world.

You should judge the speciality and truth of divine knowledge based on your own inner self (Pramanamanantahkarana pravrittayah). You should not depend on others (Mudhah parapratyayaneya buddhih, parabuddhih vinashaya). When the mud particles and binding energy between these particles are removed, the pot does not exist at all. The pot remains as an imaginary design only. Similarly, when all the molecules and binding energy of the face are removed, the face remains as an imaginary design after the death. Similarly, if you remove the awareness and the kinetic energy (note that awareness itself is energy) associated with the wave, the quality does not exist at all. Therefore, the beauty and quality are imaginary if isolated from matter and energy. The matter and energy by themselves cannot attract anyone. Therefore, the attraction itself is unreal. The God is above the unreality since He is real. Any medium charged by God is beautiful and any quality of such medium is good and liked since it is charged by God.

When God enters the human body, the human body shows various qualities, which will attract people having the similar qualities. Why God chooses the human body as the medium? The reason is to attract the human beings. If the human incarnation is married, married people who are in majority get attracted. If He shows bad qualities, bad people get attracted with confidence. Otherwise bad people feel discouraged to approach a good person. Thus, the human psychology is involved here. Krishna exhibited both good and bad qualities to attract all types of people with confidence and hence, He is called as Paripurna Avatara (the complete human incarnation). There is a version that Jesus also got married. Krishna married several girls. Buddha was married. Mohammed married more than one. Shankara was a bachelor but had involved in sex with the wives of King Amaruka.

A king was attracted by the beauty of the eyes of his queen. Ramanuja showed the most beautiful eyes of the energetic form of the Lord to the king and diverted him to the Lord. Shankara compared the eyes of the energetic form of Lord to the red anus of monkey while writing commentary on the Veda (kapyasam pundarika…). Ramanuja felt for this and interpreted the same Veda in another way by stating the meaning as lotus flowers to be compared. The view of Shankara was about the medium. The eye is unreal design and the beauty is unreal whether it is the form of energy or matter. The view of Ramanuja was that since the medium is charged by God, it is really beautiful. Both the views are not different. Shankara was speaking about the medium without God when He compared the beautiful eyes of a person with the anus of the monkey. Ramanuja was finding beauty in the eyes of the person charged by God. In the view of Shankara, the unreal eyes of a girl or the unreal eyes of an energetic celestial body are equal to the unreal anus of a monkey. Thus, there is no difference between Shankara and Ramanuja in the main point.

The powerful analysis is like a filter paper. If you analyse the beauty of a girl or a boy, you filter it through the logical analysis, which was called as Sadasat Viveka (discrimination between real and unreal). The entire girl or boy, when passes through this filter paper, you will find the complete unreal girl or boy below the filter paper. Above the filter paper just matter and energy are leftover. All the five elements of her body are matter and energy only. Even the space is energy. Matter is energy. Therefore, the gross body is turned into inert energy. The subtle body is made of waves of awareness (chit) and the kinetic energy of the waves is inert energy only. Now the waves are unreal. The awareness itself is inert energy in its basic form. Therefore, above the filter paper, only inert energy exists as final precipitate and the entire girl or boy below the filter paper is unreal. When Shankara tells that the world is unreal, the girl or boy, a form of the inert energy below the filter is unreal. But, the inert energy above the filter is a reality for the soul. This inert energy in the form of matter is also real for the soul. Matter is the strongest form of energy, called as “Bala” in the Veda. The weakest form of the inert energy is awareness or ‘Jnana’. The inert energy itself is work or activity called as ‘kriya’ (jnanabalakriyacha – Veda). The soul is awareness, which is the weakest form of this inert energy and therefore, matter cannot be unreal for the soul. The middle form of the inert energy (in terms of strength) is work or the energy itself. Its weakest form or subtle form or most diluted form is awareness. For soul, all these three forms are real. But a form (rupa) made of matter and inert energy is unreal for the soul, which has a name (nama). Similarly, a feeling or thought (guna) having a nama, which is also a form of awareness is unreal for the soul. The unreality of form and thought is realized by the powerful analysis of real and unreal. The very attraction itself is a feeling and is unreal. The reality, which is the filtered residue, is matter, energy and awareness and these are not attracting because the very attraction being unreal disappeared. This matter and awareness also disappear and become energy in the view of God. Finally, the energy, which is work, also becomes unreal, when God does not work and takes rest. He alone is leftover. But this filtration is only for God and not for the soul, which is beyond the scope of the soul. The same attraction for beauty and qualities diverted to God become real since they are now based on the ultimate reality. They are now permanent from the point of the soul. The same become unreal when they are based on a girl, who is the unreal item on filtration from the point of the soul.

The word ‘unreal’ should be always taken in the sense of ‘almost unreal’ due to quantitatively neglected existence of an item. Suppose you take the existence of a totally non-existing case like the tail of a man. It is totally a non-existent case. But the tail exists and a man exists. The association of the tail with the man is non-existent. But, when you think of a tail of the man, such idea exists as a wave of the nervous energy. But such wave is quantitatively negligible before a wave of light or a particle of matter. We say that the tail of the man is non-existent neglecting the existence of the tail of the man in the form of nervous energy or awareness because it is the weakest form of energy. When you do not think about the tail of the man, it becomes completely non-existent (as a single item and not as two items i.e., man and tail separately). Similar is the case with the concept of beauty. When the molecules in the face are associated, the beautiful form exists but when they are separated, it does not exist except as a memory made of awareness. The design of the face becomes fully non-existent when you do not feel about it, because except the molecules and their binding energy, the design does not exist externally and if you forget, it is unreal totally because when you forget, it disappears even internally.

Matter, Energy and Awareness Unreal for God

For God all items of the world are relatively true which include matter, energy and awareness, because He alone is the absolute truth. But for the soul, the world exists in terms of matter, energy and awareness because, the soul itself is one of the relatively true items i.e., awareness. The soul is not absolute truth. It is the weakest item of these entities. For the soul, the feelings of awareness (qualities) and the designs of matter and energy are relatively true items. One should cross the illusion of form of a body in the world so that he or she will recognise the Lord in human form beyond the gross body. If the matter and energy separate from gross body, the gross body, which is just a design becomes non-existent. Thus, one can realise that God is beyond gross body and such a realised soul will not be trapped by the illusion of design of face and body of a girl, which is non-existent. Similar is for a girl regarding the boy. Similarly, a quality is non-existent if the material of it (awareness) is separated. God exists and so should be above this non-existent quality, which means that He is beyond the subtle body also. God in human form may exhibit any of the three qualities and one should not be misled.

The final item is awareness or energy (awareness itself is a form of energy). When all the matter is converted into energy, only energy is leftover. The awareness is also energy basically (as seen in deep sleep) and all the souls enter deep sleep in final dissolution. Now energy only (call it chit or awareness, no objection) remains. For energy, matter is also relatively true because the powerful energy can convert matter into energy. Energy can also convert the awareness into its basic inert energy. When a current shock is given, the person becomes unconscious, which is equal to deep sleep. Therefore, for energy, both matter and awareness are relatively true since energy becomes absolute truth with respect to both. But, for awareness, even matter cannot become relative, which is more powerful. The awareness cannot turn matter into energy and also it cannot turn the soul to become unconscious. For awareness, only the forms of matter like beauty and the qualities like good and bad are relatively true since awareness is absolute truth with respect to them. Even an ignorant soul can realize that the imagination is relatively true. A realised soul can further realise that the forms and qualities are relatively true, but not matter, energy and awareness. Among these three, awareness is weakest and so cannot neglect the other two items. So, the soul can realise and treat the forms (rupa) and qualities (guna) as unreal.

When you see a pot, its form is experienced by you. This form is now maintained externally by matter and energy in the pot and also is maintained by your nervous energy (chit) internally. Even if you leave the pot and even if the impression of pot vanishes, the pot is still maintained by the mud and its binding energy externally. But if the mud and the binding energy are separated, the pot becomes unreal even externally. But the tail of a man is maintained internally only as imagination by awareness. But in both cases, the pot and man-tail are non-existent by themselves and so are unreal, which mean that they have to be maintained either by matter-energy or awareness.

Now, what do you mean by the word ‘world’? It means only forms and qualities (feelings) only. On realization, for you this world of forms and qualities becomes unreal. But, if the word means matter, energy and awareness, the world is real for you. Thus, the world is a mixture of truth (matter, energy and awareness) and unreality (forms and feelings) as said by Shankara (Satyanrute muthuni krutya). For the soul, the world is unreal on realization according to Shankara, in the sense that the world means forms and feelings. For the soul, the world is real on analysis, according to Ramanuja and Madhva in the sense that the world means matter, energy and awareness.

For God (Parabrahman), matter, energy and awareness are also unreal, when He realizes. His ignorance is only apparent and self-imposed for entertainment. The soul can never reach this state by itself, unless it is charged by God as in the case of human incarnation or it is liberated by the grace of God. The external personality of gross body (beauty) is meaningless when compared to the internal personality (qualities) because the latter is more subtle and valuable though both are relative items. This is in Pravritti or world. But God is beyond both external and internal personalities (gross and subtle) and both should be neglected in the case of God, who is beyond the soul, matter and energy. The soul from the view of a realized person is also beyond the form (gross body) and the qualities (subtle body). God can be detected by knowledge only, which is also a quality of Sattvam, since He has selected it as His identity card as declared by Him in scriptures (Prajnanam Brahma – Veda, Jnanitvatmaiva – Gita). To realize the unreality of form and feeling, the reference to God is not required. But to realize the unreality of matter, energy and awareness, the reference to God is essential. Shankara stands for the first and Ramanuja stands for the second point.

 Divine Love Alone is Complete and Permanent

You can love anybody and the beauty of gross body should not be a criterion, since beauty by itself is unreal, which does not exist apart from the muscles, fat and binding energy that radiates as shining. Therefore, it is ignorance to get attracted by others on this factor neglecting wife or husband. It is climax of ignorance and such person has no discrimination of Sat (Truth) and Asat (unreal). Atleast the subtle qualities can be considered to be more meaningful compared to the beauty of the gross body. But, even on this account, you should not be attracted by others assumng your wife or husband is having bad qualities. Quality or feeling (guna) is also unreal if the awareness and kinetic energy (wave form) are separated. It is also ignorance to leave wife or husband based on qualities. For a perfectly realized soul, both beauty or form (rupa) and quality (guna) are unreal or relatively real. You need not leave a soul and select other soul based on these two factors. Lord Datta appears in ugly form and with bad qualities to teach this. Even to get attracted to Lord Datta (Human incarnation), these two factors (external form and qualities) should not be the basis. You are attracted to Him since He is the God. He alone is handsome and also only His qualities are good. Even if He exhibits a bad quality, it has some divine purpose. Narasimha showed anger (Rajas) and Krishna was after Gopikas (Tamas) and both are incarnations of Lord Vishnu (embodiment of Sattvam). Therefore, the devotees of Vishnu need not discard Brahma (Rajas) and Shiva (Tamas).

The face of Narasimha is cruel and frightening, whereas the face of Krishna was good looking. Love your wife or husband whether she or he is ugly or beautiful and good or bad. On the basis of this unreal beauty and unreal quality, you need not discard her or him and get attracted to others. Divert him or her to God so that both of you can be saved. One can leave the wife or husband only for the sake of God like Buddha or Gopikas respectively. Except this one point of Nivritti, no soul should hurt another soul, just for pravritti, which is temporary and unreal. Ramanuja left His wife since she insulted a devotee. Therefore, God and devotees constitute the Nivritti. When you realize that a quality is relatively real or absolutely unreal by itself, you will start loving sinners also. The soul, which is a lump of awareness, is beyond its vibrations, which are the feelings or qualities. If you realize the significance of Nivritti (spiritual field), then only all the problems of Pravritti (world) will disappear. Without Nivritti, if you try to solve the problems of Pravritti, such solutions are limited and temporary like a torchlight in darkness. Nivritti is like the Sun that removes the total darkness from the world. When you see the infinite personality like an infinite line, the difference between other souls like long and short lines disappears totally.

In the last two months, I received several phones from abroad on the problems of family matters like wives or husbands running away with others, leaving their children also. The greatest sin is to hurt any soul physically or mentally except in giving the punishments to maintain the balance of society (dharma) and the main aim in punishment also is only to change the soul and not to revenge. If the other souls (husbands or wives or children) are good and devoted to God, the sin is greatest.

Treat your wife or husband or children as your colleague souls, who are participating in a drama as your co-actors. You are not the judge to decide their sins. You are not the teacher to evaluate their answer sheets, as they are your classmates. You just help them by your advises. You can punish your children to change them without any attitude of revenge. Realize that God is also punishing any soul in the hell with the same attitude as Father and not with revenge. God never kills the soul even though He has the power to kill the soul also. After all, soul is energy and God can see the energy disappear or appear. God only created the energy that is the basic cause of creation (Tat Tejoasrujata– Veda). This basic energy developed the property of awareness, which is called as soul. The same basic energy takes different forms like matter, work, light, heat, awareness etc. (Paraasya saktih– Veda). You can never kill the soul. You can destroy the subtle body and thus, you can destroy the quality (subtle body means the bundle of qualities). By your punishment, you can reduce the intensity of quality. You can never destroy the matter and energy and thus, you cannot destroy the gross body made of matter and binding energy. When you are murdering the gross body, the matter and binding energy separate and thus, the unreal design of the body disappears, that too after sometime. When you stab your body or other’s body, the design of the body disappears after few days only and not at once. Similarly, your punishment reduces the quality after sometime only and not at once. Thus, you are not the final controller of the soul. The kingdom of this Government is temporary, whereas the kingdom of God is permanent. The Government of any country should realize this and recognize the kingdom of God in every step openly. Then only, the Government succeeds. The father is the Governor of the family. The mother is also the governor of children, next to father. The mother becomes the equal partner of the Government if she is also an earning member. The parents are the mini-Government of the family. They should take the help of the Government of God in every step openly. The entire creation is the kingdom of God. The Government of God is underlying in every corner of the creation. The Government of the nation, state and family (parents) should recognize the underlying Government of God everywhere, feeling themselves as the representatives only and not the real controllers. Every apparent controller starting from the President of the nation up to the parents should realize this point and leave the egoism of controlling the other soul. Thus, the wife cannot control the husband and the husband cannot control the wife. The father or mother cannot control the children and the children cannot control their old parents.

The real controller is only God at every point, since God is the only controller of the souls (Atmeshvaram– Veda). God is the soul of the souls (Atmanam sarva dehinam– Vyasa). God is beyond the soul (Aksharadapichottamah– Gita). This is the kingdom of God as told by Jesus everywhere in the Bible. No soul can control or attract another soul. To think like that is foolishness or ignorance. One soul may control or attract another soul partially to some extent for a short period of time. No soul should think that it is the complete master of other soul at any time. One soul is a partial master of other soul and this partial mastering is also for a short period. The other soul will revenge and go out of control after sometime. Similarly, the attraction. No boy can attract the girl completely and vice-versa. The attraction is only partial. If the young pair of lovers lives full lives without committing suicide, they can understand this. The side attraction develops atleast in their minds. Everybody will accept this if they are true to their consciousness. Every pair of lovers will realize this truth that their love was partial and that partial love was also temporary. The complete and permanent love is possible only in the case of God for any soul. The complete and permanent love is impossible between two souls in Pravritti. It is possible only in Nivritti, because the personality of God is only complete both internally and externally. God is beyond the personality. Personality belongs to the external gross body and internal subtle body.

The beauty of the external gross body of God and the qualities of the internal subtle body of God alone become infinite. God may not express the personality for various reasons of the context mainly based on the reasons of repulsion due to egoism and jealousy of the souls. Rama attracted all the souls by the beauty of the external gross body and by the good qualities of the internal subtle body. Krishna also attracted all the souls by the beauty of the external gross body but He exhibited certain bad qualities (Tamas) so that His internal personality of subtle body was subjected to criticism. By such criticism, the souls will be satisfying themselves and the intensity of the jealousy and egoism gets reduced. Again, through the Gita, Krishna attracted all, which is infinite divine knowledge. Knowledge is also a quality of Sattvam and thus, becomes the internal personality as per the Gita (Sattvat Sanjayate Jnanam…). Coming to Jesus, the gross body was not good looking and thereby, He pacified the jealousy of the souls. The personality of the subtle body of Jesus attracted all the people by His good qualities as in the case of Rama. He was like Krishna in preaching the divine knowledge, the Bible. Krishna gave the Gita to Arjuna only and thus, the jealousy in the hearts of scholars did not come up. But, Jesus gave the Bible to all and the scholars (priests) became jealous and killed Him. The external beauty of Krishna was exposed to public and 16,000 beautiful girls of His caste (Kshatriya) were attracted to Him and married Him! This created jealousy in the Kshatriya-caste and several kings like Jarasandha, Duryodhana, Shishupala etc., became His enemies. Jarasandha imprisoned all those 16,000 girls, who were attracted to Krishna. Rama did not become preacher like Krishna and thus, the scholars were not jealous of Him. His external beauty was limited to Sita only and this avoided the problem that was seen in Krishna. Shankara was beautiful externally and preached the divine knowledge to public but He was a strict bachelor. But Kapalikas killed Him by black magic, since His knowledge was to public when He was alive as in the case of Jesus. Shirdi Sai Baba was not good looking and He controlled His preaching limiting to the few people who approached Him. If miracles are done in large-scale, people will forget all these things and will run to Him, because solving the burning problems of the world is the topmost for anybody. But in such case, the law of karma (justice) is violated and moreover people will concentrate on the worldly affairs only, and not on the spiritual path. These are the problems with the human incarnation in the light of jealousy and egoism of the souls. Therefore, He controls His personality partially or creates a black mark on Himself or controls His own fame.

The fame of any divine human form illuminates the jealousy, while uplifting the humanity. Though the divine knowledge is needed by everybody, to avoid these problems, the dead human incarnation or the God in the energetic form like Narayana or Shiva or Allah or Father of heaven, is the best for humanity at large and treat the present incarnation as a Prophet. But certain few devotees like to experience God directly through human body only and so God comes down in human body directly for them as they like personal discussions or direct worship to God. Hanuman and Gopikas were such few devotees. Emmanuel means the same. He comes down to live with us. Here the word ‘us’ means those few devotees only, who could overcome the jealousy and egoism. The Lord controls His fame, when He is in the human body, which is meant for such few devotees only and you should not misunderstand about His desire to limit His fame when He is alive.

Seeing the fate of Jesus, the next human incarnation, Mohammed said that neither He is God nor God is in Him. He told that He is only the Messenger of God and brought the message from Him, who lives in heaven only. Now the fame goes to the invisible God and not to the visible human form. Seeing the fate of Shankara, Ramanuja told that He is the servant of God (Adishesha only). Madhva also told the same and told that He is the son of His servant (Vayu). Thus, when you accept the live human form of God, these problems of natural human psychology crop-up. If you live with Him, the problems go to climax. It is better to treat the human incarnation as a servant of God (Messenger) like you and this will minimize the human repulsion. The statement of Mohammed that His concept is ‘final’ is a warning to every human incarnation! If you are confirming the idea of human incarnation atleast you should live far from Him so that atleast the respect can be maintained. In the olden days, for a discussion, you have to approach the human form directly. But in the light of the present electronic media, such direct approach is not required. For this divine purpose only, God granted the discovery of such electronic media in science, which is extended to the affairs of Pravritti also. When God in human body faces so many problems of egoism with the souls, how many problems will come up when a soul lives with other souls! You must understand your limits more carefully than your capacities or merits. Even God understands these limitations of His human body and adjusts Himself without using His superpowers. In such case, how much adjustment is needed for a powerless soul? Your power, if any, comes from God only. Remember this and adjust with your family and society. If you are not egoistic, God will certainly help you in the case of inevitable and unexpected problems.

World – View of God and Soul

This entire world is unreal in the view of God but not in your view, because you are a part of the world. You and your family members are converted into a lump of energy finally. The gross body is a lump of matter and a lump of binding energy. The matter is converted into energy. Awareness is converted into energy. Thus, a single homogeneous phase of energy results. The gross and causal bodies become energy. The subtle body consisting of qualities is already unreal like the external forms in the world. Even a coin or note (money) is converted into energy. Now, where are your bonds? Where are the statements like ‘I love you’, ‘I hate you’, ‘This is good’, ‘This is bad’, ‘This is beautiful’, ‘This is ugly’ (Ekatvamanupasyatah– Veda)? This homogeneous energy is the ultimate truth as per the human logic is considered. But, it is not God. Energy is work. If God stops working, energy also becomes unreal and so, only God is leftover (Mattah Parataram – Gita). Where is Pravritti? How foolish are you? Because an unreal item (yourself) is based on the unreal items and end finally in energy, which is also ultimately unreal. Without the concept of God, the final base of yourself is also unreal energy.

But if you accept the ultimate base as God, who is also the base of energy, all these items become real because, now their ultimate base is real. Even the beauty and quality are real. Therefore, that which is based on God is real and that, which is based on the power of God (energy) is unreal. This does not mean that the power and source are homogeneous and so God is also energy. That holds good in the items of creation, which are imaginable. But God is unimaginable whereas God’s power is imaginable. The link between two imaginable items is imaginable. This is a link between an unimaginable item and an imaginable item and therefore, the link is also unimaginable. You try to catch God by analysis, somehow, whenever even a trace of opportunity is available! A real item has meaning. Now, the medium in which God exists becomes real as long as God exists in that medium. Now Krishna is God and so Krishna is beautiful and Krishna is good. Even if Krishna exhibits some bad quality, there must be divine background for it. Baba is beautiful and He has suppressed His beauty for some divine purpose. Such blind love only fixes you in God. Till you detect, analysis is necessary. But once you confirmed, stop analysis and start with blind faith and blind love. Thus love, faith and knowledge of analysis become useful in the path of Nivritti and the same are meaningless in Pravritti. The ultimate basis (energy) is unreal in Pravritti.

In the Gita, it is told that the soul should rise above the objects (vishayas) and feelings (vasanas). If one realizes that all the objects are made of same energy and that all the feelings are made of same awareness, they become unreal. Then there will be no attraction and repulsion to any object and to any quality or feeling. You will rise above good and bad and love a good man and a sinner equally. There is no aspect of God here in this Pravritti and one attains peace by this realization, even if he is an atheist. Yoga is such equilibrium state (samtvam yoga – Gita). This is not bliss, which can be attained only in Nivritti. With respect to disturbance (-), peace (0) appears as bliss (+) relatively. But if you attain bliss from God in Nivritti, then you will realize the difference. By yoga in Pravritti, you can only attain absence of disturbance, which appears as bliss for you. A beggar will feel one rupee achieved equal to one lakh rupees. But the yoga in Nivritti (which means attainment of God in human form) gives you the real bliss, provided you deserve it. But there also your aim should be to serve Him and not bliss.

You must search for God without disturbing the existing system and without any assumption or imagination. As you can establish the theory without any assumption, even a scientist or atheist has to accept the theory. As it is well known, the universe is infinite and so the inert energy and inert matter are infinite as the galaxies are infinite. But the awareness is limited to earth only. Even on the earth, the awareness is in living beings only, which are scattered. So, the awareness is discontinuous and not infinite. Sinners are present in men and they are born as animals. So, every living being or every man is not God. Only Krishna or Rama or Jesus etc., can be God. Let us take Krishna. The awareness in Krishna is limited, which is not even in His hair and nails. It is not all pervading even in that body. Krishna showed that He is the Lord of the entire world i.e., infinite matter, infinite energy and all the souls including His body (Vishwarupam). Awareness (soul) is not controlling even the matter and energy of its own body. Totapuri, an advaita follower, could not control even his stomach pain and tried to commit suicide. The limited awareness in Krishna is sufficient to serve the purpose of delivering the Gita and it need not be infinite. God charged Krishna. Krishna could not repeat the Gita, when pressed by Arjuna after the war. The gross body of Krishna is the house and Krishna (Jeeva Atman i.e., a joint association of subtle and causal bodies) is the owner of the house. God is the king, who is now present in that house on a visit to earth. You cannot meet Him directly in His capital city, where He is terribly busy. You need not bother about the house or qualities of the house owner, since your aim is only the king. The Veda says the same (Dvaa suparna sayujaa…).

The only purpose of miracles is that there exists the unimaginable God as indicated by the unimaginable miracles. They are thus meant for a fundamental concept and are aimed at atheists. They are like the plate and pencil of L.K.G. class. Why theists are also after miracles? The theists are for a different purpose. They want to tap the superpower for their personal problems like the scientists, who are after tapping the energy in nature for the applications to society. Their aim is not God but the power of God. They do not mind to call the possessor of powers as God. Miracles indicate the power of God and not God. You have tapped solar energy in a battery cell and produced light. Does it mean that the battery cell is sun? Similarly, even demons tapped the superpower from God through penance like the storage battery cells. They cannot become God. Ravana lifted Kailasha, a bigger hill than Govardhana! Even atheists do not recognise God through miracles since they treat these as illusions or magic. Duryodhana treated even the vision of Vishwarupam as an illusion of the eye and mind.

Thus, in the case of atheists even the basic purpose is not served, but theists exploit these miracles. Miracles cannot give the address of God, which give only the address of existence of unimaginable power of God through which we can recognize the existence of unimaginable God. For such belief only, miracles are useful for scientists who are atheists. To serve this purpose even the miracle of a demon can be taken. God also does miracles. God does spontaneously. Sun gives the light spontaneously. God does miracle whenever there is a bare necessity and does miracle spontaneously. He never exhibits miracles for publicity or fame. He is already bored with fame in the upper world and He comes here for some rest. Simultaneously He likes to help the humanity on this earth through guidance by preaching the divine knowledge. But a demon exhibits these miracles for egoism and fame for which he has thirst. I was (here I mean God and not Myself because God is in Me and I am not God according to the concept of human incarnation) also forced to do some miracles for a short period initially by a devotee (Bhavani, wife of C.B.K. Murthy). Several crowds were surrounding Me always, who were donating well and praising Me to the sky. I was not blown up and I clearly found their intention was to use My power here in their worldly problems only. They were doing devotional business with Me. Some purchased My power through money like merchants who purchase items for profit (Vaishya bhakti). Some others purchased My power through sweet words (praises) and artificial weeping and streams of tears and sweet feelings (Veshya bhakti). Then I started conducting tests with Rajas and Tamas. Most of them ran away. Now I am happy and peaceful. I like the minority of devotees who remained with Me. Their love towards Me is real. They are the original diamonds. Even if I sacrifice My life for them, I am still indebted. They serve Me without aspiring anything in return. Without their knowledge, I transfer the fruits of their evil deeds on to Me and suffer for them secretly with lot of pleasure. If they know this, they will object Me for such suffering. This is the real love, which is actually a two-way traffic only. But the flow of love from My side is a secret so that they always feel that their love to Me is only one-way traffic. Such one-way love is sweetest. I enjoy this sweetest love and perhaps due to this only I have become a sugar patient! Again, you get the doubt, how I get sugar? My body got sugar. The body is like a shirt, which is common to both beggar and king and any shirt can be cut!

My message to all the people who suffer with worldly problems (Pravritti) is: First stop suffering. Suffering is a feeling. Feeling is a wave of awareness-energy. If the water is removed along with the kinetic energy, the wave is unreal. Even if you feel that you are this gross body (matter and inert energy) the wave or feeling is unreal. Actually, you are the lump of awareness, which has only one characteristic property that it is aware of itself (chit or soul). Its wave is feeling. The lump of awareness is associated with some kinetic energy, which becomes the feeling. Separate the kinetic energy (mentally) and let the kinetic energy be added to the inert energy–lot of the gross body. The wave disappears and only a lump of awareness is remaining, which is the soul or yourself. Similarly, apply the same analysis to attraction, because attraction is also a feeling, suppose you are attracted to a quality. Quality is also a feeling. Suppose you are attracted to a form in the world like the beautiful form of a boy or girl. Every form in the world becomes unreal if you remove all material (matter and inert energy) from it. When beauty is unreal, quality is unreal, attraction is unreal and suffering is also unreal, then why are you disturbed? Similarly, hatred is also a feeling and is unreal. I suffered with worldly problems thousand times more than any one in this world. When I explained those, My devotees wept. There are two ways to avoid the disturbance. Either become immune to the problems by the above analysis (Pravritti) or enjoy the tragedy as you enjoy the same in seeing a picture or as you enjoy hot dish in taking meals, which is the state of God enjoying this creation (Nivritti). The first way is ‘Atma yoga’ giving you undisturbed peace. The second way is ‘Paramatma yoga’, which gives you the bliss through entertainment of both pleasant and unpleasant situations. I preferred the second way. Choose one of these two ways and avoid the disturbance, which causes mental stress leading to damage of health also and results finally in total destruction.

Therefore, first stop suffering and avoid the disturbance either by self-attainment or by attainment of God. Now you are balanced and energetic to solve the problem. Try to advise the other souls in the interest of their welfare and try to remove their ignorance by spiritual knowledge. If they are rigid, leave them and make some alternative arrangements owing to certain basic inevitable necessity. But in any case, do not have blind love on any soul. Love is always blind but blind love should be only for God and not for other souls. Other souls love you for their selves as long as you give happiness to them (Atmanah Kamaya– Veda). Moreover, the love, a quality for unreal design of matter in the world like money or beauty itself is unreal. The mud is truth. The binding energy, which is negligible before mud is almost unreal called as Mithya. Attraction to truth or atleast to Mithya is meaningful. The design of pot is completely unreal even during the existence of pot. Similar is the case with your attraction, which is totally unreal like the design in the pot. In Atma yoga (Pravritti), you rise above good and bad by analysig (Buddhiyukto– Gita). Thus, good and bad are only conventional in Pravritti because the sin in one religion is good in another religion. In Nivritti, the good and bad are true not by their criterion but they exist based on some other reason. Whatever God liked is good and whatever God did not like is a sin. Thus, there is a basis of the concept of sin in Nivritti i.e., God does not like this. Otherwise both good and bad qualities are feelings only, which are designs of awareness and are totally unreal. Therefore, good or bad is not valid by its own nature, because they are unreal. So, one should not do sins based on the disliking of God, otherwise, sin is a totally unreal feeling. Therefore, ethics are also based on God only. When the sinner is beaten in the hell, the servants of Lord Yama will be shouting at the sinner by saying “Why have you done that deed, which is not liked by God?” They will not say “Why you have done the sin?” Therefore, the concept of sin is only, disliking of God. The list of the disliked items by God is given through scriptures like Dharma Shastras of Manu. Therefore, you should not do the sins mentioned in scriptures because they are disliked by God. Otherwise, a sin (bad quality) or a good quality is just an unreal feeling and has no value by itself.
