[Maha Shiva Raatri Satsanga on 8th March 2024 at Hyderabad]
[A question by Ms. Geetha]
Swami replied:- Tamas means rigidity and firm decision. Without tamas, you will be changing every minute. You will be finding a new Sadguru in every minute. This is not good in the spiritual journey. Once you have believed in the contemporary human incarnation, don’t change. But before fixing, you do thorough analysis. This analysis is God Brahma. Then, you will be attracted to the Sadguru and this attraction is called devotion, which represents God Vishnu. In the last stage, God Himself will test you by creating several illusions. In this final stage, you require rigidity and firm decision and this represents God Shiva. Today is the festival of God Shiva called Shiva Ratri and this is a very important point to be known on the occasion of this festival of God Shiva.
