(Divine Satsanga on 14-01-2023 attended by Smt. Chhanda Chandra along with Smt. Sudha Rani, Ms. Bhanu Samykya, Ms. Laxmi Thrylokya and Mr. Nitin Bhosle.)
[A question by Ms. Bhanu Samykya]
Swami replied: Satan is created by bad thoughts of the souls only when free will was given to the souls by God. In Satyayuga, when the bad thought did not exist at all, Satan did not exist. But later on, as the free will was given to souls, wrong thoughts arose and Satan has taken his birth. Satan is just an embodiment of bad thoughts only and Saturn is the planet that gives punishments to the bad deeds provoked by bad thoughts. Since Satan was born, God thought that he will be useful in testing the devotees during their spiritual efforts. Hence, God gave His absolute reality to Satan and Satan became really existent by the grace of God only. In a film show, not only the hero but also the villain gets his remuneration from the producer. Without night, day has no significance. Similarly, a hero cannot be exalted without the presence of a villain. This whole story means that God did not intentionally create Satan to trouble souls like a sadist.
