O Learned and Devoted Servants of God,
[Shri Shashi Kopparthi asked:- How to connect & experience You Swami. In this age of kali, to choose a guru is very difficult. As You said many gurus like Satya Sai did miracles to attract people & then impart spiritual knowledge. I was looking for guru who can guide me, can I get some miracles experiences from a guru like You to accept as my guru? By, Shashi Kopparthi.]
Swami replied:- I am just a human being like you without any trace of capability to do any miracle. Due to selection by God Datta, I happened to be the human being-component of His human incarnation for the purpose of doing the welfare to the world of devotees by spreading the true spiritual knowledge. The essential qualification to become the human being-component of human incarnation is that one should not aspire for such selection to attain monism with God. This is the qualification required for the entry of God Datta into any human being. After becoming human incarnation, the second required qualification to maintain the entered God throughout life period is that one should not become egoistic by the praise of surrounding devotees of such human incarnation. If the human being-component becomes egoistic, God Datta will quit such human incarnation and the human being-component will be leftover as mere human being as in the case of Parashurama.
The human being-component shall not object to the praise of surrounding devotees externally. It shall object such praise internally only to save itself from the entry of ego due to praise. The reason for this is that the devotee of human incarnation shall remain in the firm concept that the human incarnation is God (Monism or Advaita). If the devotee enters dualism or Dvaita to feel that the human incarnation is not God, the devotee is lost and hence, in the interest of the spiritual welfare of devotee, the human incarnation has to keep silent on hearing the praise from the devotee except to keep a smile on the face! If the human devotee enters the dualism, there will be terrible loss for the devotee. Similarly, if the human being-component of the incarnation enters monism, the human being-component is lost since God quits it. This is very difficult reversible equilibrium between human being-component in human incarnation and its sincere devotee. Due to such horrible situation, Shri Paramahamsa told that He would like to be an ant (devotee) to enjoy the sugar (God) and not to become sugar being bitten by ants along with the above said horrible difficulty!
The owner of an institution selects an employee, who is already trained in his required work. If such trained candidate is not available, then only, he will think of selecting an untrained candidate and give the training for the required work. If an experienced candidate is available, the owner will not waste time in giving training to the inexperienced candidate. Similarly, if a devotee suitable for the divine program is available, God selects such devotee to become human incarnation for doing such specific program. I had lot of interest in the spiritual knowledge from childhood, perhaps, due to some strong connection with the spiritual knowledge in my previous births. I feel that God Datta selected Me even when I was in the womb of My mother because I heard (after My birth and growth) My mother speaking that she used to see temples, mosques, churches and Buddhistic temples etc., in the dream everyday during her pregnancy while I was in the womb and this is an indication of My future divine program of Universal Spirituality. Another supporting miracle was that without studying Sanskrit from anybody, I became a deep scholar in Sanskrit scriptures and a poet in Sanskrit telling poetry in Sanskrit spontaneously. I wrote about 100 books in Sanskrit on the correlation of the commentaries of the three divine preachers (Shankara, Ramanuja and Madhva) by the age of 16 years! I was doing My job as a Professor of Chemistry in a reputed Engineering College in Vijayawada for My livelihood and dedicated all My leisure time for God’s work by propagating My books to Sanskrit scholars, who were very very few in number. One day, I performed a special worship to Lord Shiva asking Him to give Me poverty and all difficulties so that I can raise fast in spiritual line in spite of my heavy world responsibilities of My large family. The kindest Lord sanctioned My prayer immediately!
Later on, God Datta appeared as Shri Satya Sai (contemporary human incarnation) and asked Me to do the full time propagation of spiritual knowledge promising Me that He will take care of all My worldly problems. I left the job and entered this full time program. Later on, God Datta appeared to Me in the holy place called Shrishailam and merged in Me. Just before the merge, He conducted a severe test asking Me to jump from the top of the hill since I was singing a song composed by Me, which means that I will surrender My life also for Him if He asks for it. I jumped down at once, but, I was caught by Him at once. I am telling My background briefly to reveal that I am just a human being like you to have the chance of becoming human incarnation if God selects. Every soul is an ordinary human being only including the human being-component of the human incarnation and any human being has the chance to become human incarnation based on purely the will of omniscient and omnipotent God only. The human incarnation is not greater than the greatest devotee. In the incarnation, God Datta and the selected devoted soul merge perfectly (Monism) like gold (invisible God) and copper (visible human being-component) whereas in the case of the greatest devotee invisible God is closely associated with the visible human devotee like the gold rod welded with the copper rod (Dualism).
The excellent true spiritual knowledge radiated from the human incarnation is from the invisible God-component only but not from the visible human being-component. Similarly, miracles are also exhibited from the invisible God-component only and not from the visible human being-component at all. Your request for a miracle is received by God Datta and if He feels that it will help your spiritual progress, I am confident that your request will be accepted by Him. I am just a postman between God Datta and yourself. If the miracle has no use, He will keep silent to your request. When I started the propagation of spiritual knowledge, several miracles were shown by God Datta through me for about 2 to 3 years as the initial pick up for overcoming the starting trouble. But, slowly, I found that the devotion of devotees shown on me was only to exploit the divine miraculous powers for solutions of their worldly problems, which increase their selfishness that opposes the divine grace on them. I made a special prayer to God Datta to stop the miracles since the initial pick up was done and prayed Him to do the miracles in the case of real devotees only to help their spiritual progress.
One day, a devotee (Smt. K. Padmaram) from Ramachandraapuram phoned to Me that I am not showing any miracle to her directly and requested Me to show a miracle in Vijayawada (I was staying in Vijayawada) to somebody at once and let that somebody phone to her to reveal the divine experience. I scolded her on the phone regarding the foolish attraction for miracles and said that even demons and devilish souls exhibit miracles attained from God through rigid penance. I told her that the true spiritual knowledge alone is the identity mark of God since true knowledge alone gives the right direction to the soul in both worldly and spiritual lines. I didn’t know that God Datta accepted her request. As soon as I came outside the house and was walking in the front space of the house, a neighbour (Smt. Rama, who arrived from Singapore) not knowing Me at all found a rotating wheel of radiation behind My head and was shocked horribly. After some time, on My instruction, she phoned to My devotee and told her about her divine experience. Surprisingly, in the same time, a lady devotee possessed by a deity called Shri Lakshmi in My native place called the daughter of My sister (Smt. Bhargavi) and told her that her uncle (Myself) showed the divine wheel of radiation called Vishnuchakra behind His head in Vijayawada. She immediately phoned Me asking the reason for not showing such miracles to even My close relative like herself. I replied her that even I could not see that wheel since it was behind My head and as I rotated My face to the back direction to see it, the back of My head came to the opposite direction of My face!
