Mother of Rohit:
Rohit is my son, who is following the study of your divine knowledge
I request you to restore his bonds with the family once again
There is a social need and social justice in my present request.
Swami:
Oh! Mother of Rohit! You are equally mother to me also
You can order me to do anything as you please in this world
The Veda says that mother is first and then comes the father
Then only the preacher comes in the sequence in the third place
Therefore nobody and nothing is greater than the mother in this world
This is called as the field of Pravritti, which is the social life
In this field which has the boundaries of this world of humanity
Nobody should compete with the mother who has given the birth
Even if some body competes, one should vote to the mother only
If one leaves the mother and be after some other person in this world
He shall go to the hell and shall be punished severely, no doubt
But, Oh Mother! When the Lord enters this world to compete
With the mother, the mother cannot be voted before the Lord
The mother has given this physical body and nourished it
But the soul with its subtle body enters the womb of the mother
Through a food grain from the upper world on the order of the Lord
When the subtle body with the soul enters the womb of the mother
A physical materialistic body is being prepared in her womb
But remember that the physical body also was prepared
By the order of the Lord only and it grows by His order only.
When a couple unites, there is no hard and fast rule that
The child should be born, therefore, the parents are not responsible
For the birth of child, the child is created by the administration
Which is divine and which is constituted by the Lord
It is this divine administration that brings the child to the womb
Therefore, the ruler of such divine administration, who is the Lord
Should be considered as responsible for the creation of the child
If the Lord is not supporting, the child cannot be maintained
In the womb itself, the child is finished, which is the abortion
Even after the birth of the child, the child is maintained only
Based on the divine administration called as “Karma Chakra”
Therefore the parents need not feel that they have created the child
Let them not claim the credit in the creation of the child
Sometimes we hear the mother saying to the child in loud voice
“I have given birth to you, I was bearing your weight for nine months”
The father also says “ I have brought up you and made you educated”
All these statements are out of ignorance and egoism only
If these statements are true, why sometimes a child dies in the womb?
Why the mother could not deliver the child? In which case
The mother did not bear the child for nine months,
Since the child missed in the earlier months, if the father is true
Why some children could not be educated in spite of hectic efforts?
Therefore nobody should claim the credit of any action here
All the claim goes to the wheel of the deeds that revolves
Around the index finger of the Lord called Sudarshana chakra
Sudarshana means that which is visible on deep analysis
This is also called as a wheel of time or Kala Chakra
Whenever the appropriate time comes for anything to happen
According to the design of the Karma chakra, it happens
In the case of devotees there may be some modifications in this wheel
Thus either routine or special incident that takes place in this world
It is only due to the will of the Lord and not due to the will of any soul
This entire creation is the drama created by the Lord for entertainment
All the souls are created by Him, which are the basic pure actors
These souls are drops of pure awareness called as causal bodies
These souls are covered by different qualities, which are
The different actions of the pure actors that have to be followed
According to the actions the actors speak the various dialogues
All these different actions are called as different subtle bodies
The soul is covered by the external gross body made of five elements
These gross bodies are the different external dresses of the actors
The actor remains same in all the dramas, which are the various births
The roles change, role means both action and the external dress
In Ashtavakra Samhita, the preacher Ashtavakra told king Janaka
That two actors in a drama in two roles change their roles
In another drama, the preacher gave a horrible example here
He told “Oh King! Two souls acting as mother and son in this birth
Become wife and husband in the next birth”, really inaudible!
You are seeing this in the present cinema-field, two actors acting
As mother and son in one cinema act as wife and husband
In another cinema, this is the reality of the bond in this world!
Shankara says that these dramatic bonds are temporary and so unreal
He pleads that everything temporary must be invariably unreal
Yes, you examine the drama, all the bonds in the drama did not exist
Before the drama, they do not exist after the drama also in future
Hence, you call the bonds as temporary existing during the drama
But Shankara asks you to analyze carefully the present status also
Even during the time of the drama, the bonds are not at all real
Are these two actors really mother and son during the drama?
Therefore, neither you are the mother nor Rohit is your son
When the bond is always unreal, you can have the bond with me also
You can be my mother and I can be your son in this world-drama
Then, Rohit is my younger brother assisting me in my mission
The mother shall be happy if her younger son assists her elder son
Don’t you think that Rohit is with his family member in this context?
He is with his elder brother and both your sons are doing
The greatest work of the Lord who is the Father of the all the souls
Your two sons are together doing the work of your Father
You should be the happiest person in this set up that exists now
When Jesus was preaching about the Lord, a lady stood up and shouted
“Oh Jesus! Blessed is your mother who has given birth to you”
Then Jesus replied “ No. My mother is not the blessed one,
Those who participate in this divine mission are really blessed”
One day the mother of Jesus came to meet him and somebody told Him
That his mother is waiting outside for Him, but he did not care to meet her
He also told one disciple not to attend the burial function of his father
He told “Let the dead bury the dead, you follow me in my mission”
If you see the situation of Adi Shankara in Kaladi in the state of Kerala
You will be surprised, she was very old and was abandoned by her caste
Because she gave birth to Shankara as a widow and he was the only son
Shankara should not have left her under any circumstances
But He cheated her by creating a false crocodile in the river
In the field of Pravritti this is considered as the greatest sin
But Shankara did not leave his mother for some other worldly affair
He did not go to a town and married a beautiful girl and settled there
In such case he should have gone to the most intensive hell
He left his mother for the sake of the mission of the Lord
Of course she suffered a little due to the inconvenience caused
But that little suffering is temporary and was for that one birth only
Being the mother of Shankara, she went permanently to Brahmaloka
She got permanent bliss in the association of the Lord
Is it not far better than that little suffering caused by Shankara?
One birth is just one second in the infinite stream of births
Really the only person who had real love to his mother is only Shankara
He only served her really by giving her permanent happiness
Shankara knows all this and he left her not in ignorance
His love is real, a real love ends in the welfare of the other person
Whom you love, unreal love is always characterized by selfish happiness
Had Shankara stayed with his mother, he might have been also happy
The mother might have also been happy due to service of Shankara
But this happiness of Shankara as well as his mother is temporary only
It is ignorance if one cares for temporary and hence unreal things.
Therefore this happiness is not even real, Shankara analyzed all this
It may look harsh for the people who cannot understand this at the outset
Jesus while carrying on the cross said to the people who were weeping
“Oh ignorant people! Don’t weep for me, weep for you and for your children”, this means that the suffering in the crucification is temporary
And therefore it is unreal, the happiness of the people who are not
Crucified is also temporary and unreal, the reality is that those people
Are going to the permanent hell whereas he is going to his Father
To sit on his right side on the throne, both these are real things.
Jesus was born to an unmarried girl called Mary at that time
What does this mean? Parents are not essential for creation of the child
Therefore he did not like to give any credit to his mother
The Lord entered Him and not his mother and therefore
The credit should go only to the Lord who dwells in him
He is far greater than his mother not in the view of external bodies
But in the view of the internal Lord who dwells in the human body
Suppose there is a coil of wire and you have cut a small piece from it
The coil is the mother and the piece of the wire is the son
The piece of the wire is charged with the current and is alive
Now, which is greater? The coil or the piece of the wire?
The piece of the wire is valid since the current is in it now
It may leave in the future and it might not have entered in the past
How does it matter? Now the current is present in the piece of the wire
Therefore the human body of the human incarnation is now divine for us
The Lord might have entered in the womb or might have entered later
The Lord may stay up to the death or may leave even before the death
The Lord left Jesus just before the death and hence he cried
“Oh Lord! Why did you leave me? Why did you leave me?”
When Jesus was crucified and the mother was weeping for him
He showed one of his disciple to his mother and asked her
To treat him as her own son for the rest of the life.
But, you may think that how he can be the real son like Jesus
But, Jesus is a realized soul. He knows that all these bonds are unreal
He called every lady as his mother, for Him the bonds are made only
Society is only a drama containing different actors in various roles
The bonds between actors is only one that is the bond between colleagues
This bond is real between the souls, which are the basic pure actors
But the bonds between the roles in the drama are unreal only
What do you mean by society? Is it the real bonds between the actors?
Or is it the bonds between the roles in the drama? Please answer this
If you say that society is the bond between the roles, society is unreal
Because the society is based on the unreal bonds and cannot be real at all
If you say that the colleague-bonds constitute the society, in that case,
You need not worry whether your son is with you or with others
Since all are colleagues, he is with colleagues only always
Whether he is with you or with others elsewhere in this world.
Both these aspects can never protect any soul at any time
The unreal bond vanishes after the drama and your son cannot protect you
After this birth like the dramatic son cannot protect the dramatic father
After the drama, the co-actor is also not worried about the other actor
After the drama is over, therefore society can never protect you.
Only the grace of the Lord will protect you here as well as there
Therefore, you need not bother about the society, which is unreal
Shankara did not care for the society to leave his old mother
Prahalada did not care to get his father killed by the Lord
Meera did not mind to leave her husband for the sake of the Lord
Buddha left his wife, son and kingdom for the divine Knowledge
Ramakrishna Paramhansa married but did not touch his wife
If all these are fools, why is the world worshipping them?
As long as the field of Nivritti, which is related to the Lord
Does not interact with the field of Pravritti, the family,
The social justice and ethical rules stand and are alive
Shankara gave an example in this point, which is very nice,
He told that the knife could cut vegetables but not the stone
If the knife attacks the stone, the knife will be cut and not the stone
If your son is not in the Nivritti and went out in Pravritti only,
Then he can be warned against the consequences of the sin
When he entered the Nivritti, he crossed both the good and bad
The Veda says the same “Ubhe punya pape vidhuya” which means
That the devotee of the Lord crosses both the good and the bad
Good and bad are related to the society and limited to Pravritti,
In Nivritti, the Lord only remains and becomes the highest
The Veda says the same “Natatsamah chabhyadhikascha” which means
That nothing, nobody and no theory is greater than the Lord
Justice and society are protected by the Lord only
The protector is always greater than the protected
If a person neglects the family caught by the grip of another person
Or wine or wealth or horse race, then he can be warned
But when the person is caught by the grip of the Lord,
If anybody warns him, he will be severely punished by the hell
You are not turning to the Lord, which itself is a sin
Your also obstructing a person who turns towards the Lord
This is double sin and therefore you will be crushed here and there
Oh mother! Think patiently whatever I have told here
Analyse every concept with your intelligence and discrimination
Emotion will lead to intensive darkness of ignorance only
And you cannot find the truth in the emotion, use the torch light
Which is your brain, now you will see the goal and the path clearly
Arjuna was caught in this grip of emotion rising on the net of bonds
With his relatives, the Gita was the torch light analysis shown by the Lord
After that Arjuna killed the relatives and gave them a permanent farewell
I tell you in the name of the Lord, please hear me, this is truth
A person who is intoxicated by God will never fail even in this world
Because the Lord is the ruler of both this world as well as there
Could anything harm Prahlada? The entire nature bowed before him
The fire, the serpents, the elephants bowed at his feet
The son of the prime minister may go to any departmental office
Everywhere everybody gives a royal reception to him
Everybody will do his work, the prime minister will not phone
Because everybody knows that he is the son of the prime minister
Therefore be assured that the materialistic line will not fail
Because of the spiritual line, it is a full misunderstanding
In fact the Lord controls the material line also and does good only
To the devotees avoiding all the negative effects of that line
The spiritual line is like supplying the energy through the food
The energy is essential for doing prayers as well as the job
Therefore the Lord will protect both the lines in an excellent way
Those who have not taken food can neither pray nor do the job
When the electricity is absent, neither radio sings
Nor the tube light glows, therefore electricity is the source for
The radio, the tube light and for any other electronic appliance
Similarly the Lord is the source for your job and family
The same Lord is the source for your spiritual effort also
He is the only protector here and there at every step
If He is pleased with you, you are well here and there also
If He is angry you will weep here and there also
Do not think that He is related to the upper world only
He gives longevity, health, wealth, wife, son and everything
He also gives salvation from all these things as per your wish
He is the power that works under your direction
Therefore He is not bound to the result in any way
You climb the horse and go to the forest and you are killed there
By the same horse you may go to your home and feel happy
For both the results, He is not responsible in any way
But in achieving both the results He is the power of achievement
The horse has nothing to do with your death in the forest
Nor it has anything to do with your happiness at the home
The Gita says the same “Kartaramapi sarvasya” which means
That He is the doer of everything, yet doer of nothing.
Therefore, Oh Mother! You are praying the Lord to get your son
But your son is praying the Lord to get the Lord
If you pray the Lord to bring your son attracted by another person
The Lord will certainly grant your boon because you are the greatest
You are the first person within the boundaries of this world
But your son has crossed the boundaries of this world
And has entered the boundaries of Nivritti or the abode of the Lord
To please you, how can the Lord throw your son from Himself?
He can drag your son from another person by your prayer
Believe me, your son is a divine soul born for the mission of the Lord
He was closest friend of the Lord by the same name in Brindavanam
The attraction towards the Lord in his heart is strongest bond
Which cannot be vibrated even by millions of parents
He has found out the real bond with the employer of this drama
Lord is producer and director of this whole world cinema,
He also enters as the hero of Nivritti for the sake of spiritual people
You will be given the permanent abode of the Lord in future
For having only one qualification that is you are the mother of Rohit.
Oh Mother! You were also present in Brindavanam and treated the Lord
Like your own son, even though you misunderstood him in the beginning
You are also divine soul in this divine spiritual drama created by the Lord
The souls create their own dramas, but the spiritual drama is created
By the Lord only and all the dialogues are written by Him only.
You spoke like this based on the dialogue written for you by the Lord
Therefore you need not feel that you have asked like this.
You are well aware of this whole divine knowledge because
You have heard all this from Lord Krishna in Brindavanam already
You spoke like this only to get this answer from Me
Your question and my answer are the dialogues written by the Lord
You did your role well and I hope that I have played my role also well
Inspired by your dialogue, I thank you first and then the Lord
Because the script writer is indirect and behind the scene
But the actor delivering the dialogue is before the eyes.
I cannot help for this divine knowledge, which is written by the Lord
I am only delivering His script which is the Truth and hence harsh
Jesus tells us that he brought the sword of knowledge not for peace
He told that He would cut the family bonds and divide the family into two
He expects His beloved disciple to leave the entire family and even life
He left his family and also sacrificed his life for the mission of the Lord
I cannot bring down the sky to the earth to please you
Since you are standing on the ground, if I do this you will stay here only
If you know the Truth you will make constant effort to reach the sky
If you are in the spiritual effort constantly, the Lord will grant you
Any number of human re-births, therefore do not be discouraged
Even if you slip in the path and come back, you shall be granted
The human rebirth, which is sanctioned to “Yogabhrashta”
Yogabhrashta means the person who slipped and came back
In the Gita the Lord says the sanction of the human rebirth even to Him
Then why not to the person who is in constant spiritual effort?
Therefore you will certainly reach the goal on one day
Please keep on walking, that is only expected from you.
The present preachers either do not know the true divine knowledge
Or modify for the sake of devotees to please and get benefit from them
If I modify this knowledge, the devotees may be pleased
The number of devotees will increase tremendously around me
But the Lord will be very angry for modifying His script
Jesus did not modify the script of his father even by crucification
The true knowledge covers the entire depth and hence spreads slowly
The false knowledge is superficial and spreads very fast.
The divine work will be humble and little in the beginning stage
Like the shadow in the evening, which grows slowly
The work of the Satan is huge in the beginning but vanishes
In course of time like the shadow present in the morning time
How many were Christians when Jesus was alive?
How many Christians are present now in this world?
The knowledge becomes clearer and clearer as the Truth is revealed
You can always find the true object with very clear vision
The illusory object superimposed on a true object is obscure
The rope, which is true, is seen very clearly when it is realised
But when in the illusory snake appears over it,
The snake does not appear so clearly to the vision
Therefore the true item is always clearly visualised
And the illusory item is not so much clear
Therefore the clarity in the knowledge indicates the truth of the knowledge
When the illusory knowledge appears, no clarity, only confusion
The present mission is to remove all the illusory knowledge
Which has branched in several ways and to show the true knowledge
For some the rope is appearing as snake, for some as a stick
Therefore the illusory knowledge is interpreted in several ways
All these illusory interpretations have masked the true knowledge
Now it is the will of the Lord that the true knowledge is to be opened
Nobody can stop this, nor oppose this, nor can divert this.
The divine mission of the Lord will be completed with full success
Any example from any religion can perfectly suit the truth
Truth is universal spirituality and it can find its example in any religion
The well is same in a particular place only with limited circumference
But the ocean is found in every part of the world.
The true knowledge is like fire that removes the mental impurity
The false knowledge is like water that removes external impurity
The Gita says that the divine knowledge is like fire and burns ignorance
Which is turned into ash “Jnanaagnih”, when the tree is burnt
It cannot rise again from the ash, the previous messenger told
That Jesus will baptize by the fire, which means divine knowledge.
People pray the Lord and ask Him to grant a particular thing only
They do not give any freedom to the Lord since they feel themselves
As scholars and decide their own welfare and do not allow the Lord
Such people are the lowest category and will dip in the ocean of misery
The middle class devotees give partial freedom to the Lord by praying
That the Lord can give anything but that should be good to them
They gave freedom to the Lord to select any item from the list of
Good things, but He should not touch the list of the bad items.
The highest class of devotees pray the Lord that He should grant
Anything whether good or bad but it should please the Lord.
Jesus prayed in the last minutes before His arrest by the soldiers
That the will of the Lord should only happen, which means that
The will of the Lord always pleases the Lord and hence it should happen
Even if the will is the crucification, Jesus invited it and felt happy
Because the happiness of the Lord can alone be his happiness
Therefore Oh Mother! Pray the Lord to do whatever He pleases
If He is pleased in returning your son, let Him do so
If He is pleased in retaining your son, let Him also do the same
Then you will be considered as the top class devotee and
You will be granted His permanent place called as Brahmaloka
