[I have created the four castes (Brāhmaṇa, Kṣatriya, Vaiśya and Śūdra) among souls based on the qualities and subsequent deeds only and not based on birth. This classification was done by Me for the sake of convenience in allotting professional duties to different souls based on their inherent interests and professional talents for the sake of service to society.]

 

[The cruel sinners present in all the four castes were expelled from the society due to their sin of killing even the helpful animals and they became the fifth caste called ‘Caṇḍālas’. This punishment of expulsion is for their reformation only and not for revenge. The child of a caṇḍāla cannot be called as a canṇḍāla because the sin of the parent cannot be attributed to the child. After the sinner is reformed through realisation, repentance and non-repetition of the sin, he/she is welcomed back into the society.]

 

[The gender difference is also for the external body only and not for the soul, which is the awareness called self. The females and Śūdras learn the meaning of the Veda through the secondary scriptures called the ‘Purāṇams’ and they are far better than the priests, who recite the Veda like inert tape-recorders without understanding its meaning.]

 

[One shall leave the blind fascination for caste, gender and religion and he/she shall proceed based on the inherent qualities and subsequent deeds in deciding the caste of a soul. Such an advanced soul will easily realise the unity of sub-religions of Hinduism and the unity of all the world-religions. Such devotee will certainly merge in the energetic body of God Datta in the upper world after death.]

 

[Gāyatrī does not mean a specific Vedic hymn composed in the meter called Gāyatrī. It means pleasing God through singing sweet songs on God in one’s own mother tongue to get protection from God (Gāyantaṃ trāyati iti…). Every soul on this earth irrespective of caste, gender and religion is eligible for this real Gāyatrī. The ritual called Upanayanam means becoming close to God through such worship of singing. The cross thread containing three strings means that one has to catch God in human form, which is the medium constituted by three qualities called Sattvam, Rajas and Tamas.]

 

[In the Sandhyā Vandanam, it is told that Gāyatrī is only a name of the Vedic meter, whereas the Deity is Savitā (creator of souls), who is none other than God Brahma Datta. The sweet singer is always a female and not a male. Therefore, the male priests, who are chanting the Vedic hymn as Gaayatrii without knowing the meaning and without getting devotion, must leave their masculine ego and respect females.]

 

[The first verse in the Ṛgveda says that in the Yajña (sacrifice), fire is both the supplier (Hotā) and the receiver (Havanīya) of ghee. Here, the word ‘fire’ means the possessor of hunger fire and the word ‘ghee’ means ghee-fried food as per the implied meaning or Lakṣaṇā. Ignorant priests are wasting the nutritious ghee by burning it in physical fire, which instead can bring good health when taken in meals. Burning wooden sticks causes pollution and stops the rains. In the Yajña, wooden sticks are lit for cooking food. The guest possessing hunger fire called Vaiśvānarāgni is referred in the Veda (Vaiśvānaraḥ praviśatyatithiḥ…). This means that the possessor of hunger fire supplies food to his stomach through mouth with his hand (Hotā) and the divine fire present in the stomach receives the food (Havanīya). If you take inert fire as the meaning, it can be the receiver, but cannot be the supplier of ghee.]

 

[The female is only doing the real Vedic sacrifice by cooking food and serving it to the hungry guests. Similarly, the female is only doing the real worship of Gāyatrī by singing sweet songs in praise of God. Therefore, the male souls should not fall due to the ego of caste and gender.]

 

[Upavāsa means becoming close to God and forgetting meals spontaneously. Jāgaraṇaṃ means foregoing the sleep spontaneously due to immersion in the devotion to God. Foregoing meals and sleep happen naturally to a true devotee when he/she is working in the mission of God or singing the songs of God or studying or discussing or listening or thinking the spiritual knowledge of God. Forcibly foregoing meals and sleep are not Upavāsa and Jāgaraṇaṃ respectively. One must logically analyse the meaning of the words used and do any action after perfectly knowing the correct meaning of the word.]

 

[A statue does not become alive by doing the ritual of ‘Life Initiation’ (Prāṇa Pratiṣṭhā). It only means that the statue in human form shall be added with life so that it results as the alive human being. This finally means that the worshipper of the statue shall advance one step more to recognise the contemporary human incarnation of God for worship. This point is told by the Veda and secondary scripture (Na tasya pratimā asti– Veda, Pratimā hyalpa buddhīnām– Skānda Purāṇam).]

 

[Among the 16 services (Śoḍaśopacāra) done to the statue of God, there is no step like sending out God from the statue (Udvāsanā). This Udvāsanā is extremely sinful since it is an insult to God. Because of such nasty mentality of devotees to send out God, God is not actually entering the statue when invitation-service (Āvāhanam) is done by the devotees. Devotees are immersing the statue made by mud in water after doing Udvāsanā or sending out God. This step can also mean sending out the life of God that was initiated by the life initiation and then, immersing the dead body in water. Rāvaṇa used to do such type of nasty worship for the mud-made Shiva Linga every day and as a result of that sinful worship, he was destroyed along with all his family and relations.]

 

[Even Ādi Shankara condemned this mud-statue worship of God. One should always worship the statue of God made of metal or stone, which exists eternally.]

 

[Worshipping statues and photos of God is not bad in the initial stage of devotion. The statue represents God like the national flag represents the nation. People enjoy the memories of their past marriage functions by seeing the photo albums. The inert photo or statue can bring the memory of awareness to create the devotion.]

 

[Some people with sinful mentalities called Tāntrikas worship the deities of Tamas quality (Like Chinnamastā, Pratyaṅgirā, Jvālāmukhī, Bagalāmukhī etc.) and eventually get killed by those deities. These deities are the very wild forms of the Divine Power called Mahā Māyā. These deities become extremely furious very quickly if the worshipper has even a trace of any bad quality (like lust, vengeance etc.). Only Ādi Shankara and Ramakrishna Paramahamsa succeeded in such type of worship. Therefore, one shall always worship the Divine Mother existing in peaceful state due to predominant Sattvam quality.]

 

[There are three stages in a spiritual path:- i) Jñāna Yoga or spiritual knowledge, ii) Bhakti Yoga or theoretical devotion and iii) Karma Yoga or practical devotion done in two ways:- a) Karma Saṃnyāsa or sacrifice of physical work to God and b) Karma Phala Tyāga or sacrifice of fruit of work to God. The first two stages are theoretical giving theoretical fruits since Jñāna Yoga is related to intelligence and Bhakti Yoga is related to mind. The third stage is practical giving practical fruits (Ye yathā māṃ…- Gita). Jñāna Yoga is like water, Bhakti Yoga is like fertilizer and Karma Yoga is like the plant born from the seed to yield the final fruit. Both Jñāna Yoga and Bhakti Yoga are also needed because without water and fertilizer, the plant cannot grow to yield fruits. Hence, the two theoretical steps are also important. The third stage (Karma Yoga) is the plant and it is the most important stage because it alone gives the final fruit.]

 

[Jñāna Yoga is like knowing the special attractions of Mumbai city. Bhakti Yoga is the burning desire to go and see the Mumbai city. Walking upto the railway station (Karma Saṃnyāsa) and purchasing the ticket (Karma Phala Tyāga) stand for the Karma Yoga. Similarly, Rukmini hears the details of Krishna from sage Nārada and this is Jñāna Yoga. She burns herself with the desire to marry Krishna and this is Bhakti Yoga. She writes a love letter and sends it through a priest to Krishna and this is Karma Saṃnyāsa Yoga. She gives her golden chain to the priest and this is Karma Phala Tyāga Yoga.]

 

[Rukmini is the incarnation of Shri Mahalakshmi. After marriage, she did not desire for any materialistic benefit or position. She always spent her time in pressing the feet of God Krishna. This is the correct path to reach God. There shall not be any aspiration for any fruit (self-pleasure or any other benefit) in return from God for the sacrifice and service done by the devotee to God. The climax stage of devotion is to become a slave of God in all angles.]

 

[If one follows justice in both financial earning and sexual life, such a soul is said to have attained salvation in Pravrutti or worldly life. If a soul controls the fascinations towards the three strongest worldly bonds (wealth, wife and children), such a soul will not do corruption in earning money for livelihood and also will not engage in illegal sexual affairs. This will do lot of welfare to the entire world by which God is very much pleased. In Pravrutti, justice is the ultimate goal and injustice has to be rejected for the sake of justice.]

 

[If one completely destroys all the three strongest worldly bonds, such a soul is said to have attained merge (Yoga) with God in Nivrutti or spiritual life and such a person is called as Yukta. This destruction of all the three strongest worldly bonds can be achieved only by the close association with God, who is the embodiment of true and complete spiritual knowledge. If the soul is detached from something, that can happen only when the same soul is attached to some other thing. In Nivrutti, the ultimate goal is God and both justice and injustice have to be left for the sake of God.]

 

[In Dushpravrutti (unjust worldly life), the soul becomes blind with climax fascinations of the three strongest worldly bonds and becomes a sinner by engaging in illegal sexual affairs and doing corruption in earning wealth in any way for the accumulation of the wealth to be enjoyed by spouse, children and his/her future generations. In Pravrutti (justified worldly life), these worldly fascinations are reduced by the control of mind through intellect that is enlightened by the spiritual knowledge of God and the person rejects injustice following only justice. In Nivrutti (Spiritual life), these reduced fascinations of the three strongest worldly bonds are completely destroyed and the devotee practically serves and sacrifices in the mission of God without aspiring anything in return from God. These are the three gradual stages in the spiritual path.]

 

[If one earns unjust wealth through sin and corruption, such sinful wealth comes and joins itself with the wealth earned in justified way to pull the justified wealth also, resulting in destruction of total wealth. This is like the railway engine attaching itself with the chain of compartments standing on the platform and pulling them out.]

 

[The wealth or money earned in sinful corrupt ways will destroy the children of the family continuously even in the future generations also due to the anger of God. In such family, there will never be any happiness at all. When wealth is earned in justified ways, the children and future generations of the family will be blessed by God with various talents and they will earn plenty of wealth, good fame and live with happiness and contentment. A reformed sinner shall dedicate such sinful wealth to the mission of God since God alone is capable of destroying any type of sin.]

 

[The parents must preach their children from their childhood about the concept of God and caution them about the sinful actions that bring punishing fruits so that the entire world is relieved from all sins in all the future generations. For doing this welfare to the world, such parents will achieve salvation due to the grace of the pleased God.]

 

[One should always leave the attitude of vengeance when harmed by others. The reason is that no human being knows whether somebody harmed him/her in this birth for the first time or whether somebody harmed him/her in this birth due to harm done by him/her to that somebody in the previous birth. If it is the first fresh case, God will certainly punish the harming fellow. If it is the second retort case, God will not punish the harming fellow because he was harmed by present victim in the previous birth. Due to the ignorance of the nature of case, it is always better to leave the revenge and surrender to God about further action or inaction. The fresh case is always punished by God because God will not let His divine administration get even a trace of tiny black scar.]

 

[If one surrenders the revenge at the feet of God, such good soul becomes dear to God and will also receive the compensation from God for the damage incurred by the soul. Otherwise, if the soul burns with revenge against the enemy, such soul will not get any compensation from God and further gets punished by God for the sin of revenge! Draupadi gets insulted by Kauravas and God Krishna decides to kill the Kauravas since it is a fresh case. Draupadi should have kept silent without the attitude of revenge. But, Draupadi burns with revenge and always provokes her husbands to kill the Kauravas. For this sin of having revengeful attitude, she loses her five sons, who could have become the kings throughout their lives for the kingdom won.]

 

[When someone harms, one should not take immediate action to retort him/her since nobody knows whether it is a fresh case or a retort case. The victim must approach a Sadguru, who is the contemporary human incarnation of God and ask Him about the further course of action. This is the concept given by the Veda (Brahmaṇās sammarṣiṇaḥ yuktā ayuktā alūkṣā dharma kāmās syuḥ). Arjuna gets doubt whether his revenge towards Kauravas in the battle is justified or not. Arjuna asks this Krishna about his further action and he fights the war after being advised by Me.]

 

[To recognize the contemporary human incarnation of God, ego and jealousy are the two cataracts covering the two eyes due to which the recognition of God in human form becomes impossible. If the human beings want to recognize the contemporary human incarnation of God arrived on the earth, they must put strong spiritual effort, which is the surgical operation of removal of cataracts present in the two eyes. This means that the human devotees must put the strong spiritual effort to destroy both ego and jealousy that obstruct the recognition of contemporary human incarnation of God.]

 

[If the devotee is unable to recognize the contemporary human incarnation present on the earth due to the repulsion between common human media of the devotee and human incarnation, the same devotee after death will not be able to recognize the energetic incarnation present in the upper world due to the same common repulsion between the two energetic media of the devotee and the energetic incarnation present in the upper world. Souls exist in human bodies on earth and in energetic bodies after death in the upper worlds. The soul goes to the upper world after death in energetic body and meets energetic incarnation of God there. The final result is that a devotee with ego and jealousy loses God while alive on the earth as well as in the upper world after death. By this, the soul always loses God everywhere and this is told by the Veda as the greatest loss (Iha ced avedī datha satya masti, na ced ihāvedīn mahatī vinaṣṭiḥ).]

 

[Even all the justified worldly bonds are also selfish because any worldly bond loves the other worldly bond only for its own happiness and not for the happiness of the other worldly bond. Therefore, to deceive the worldly bonds by sweet words for the sake of journey towards God is not a sin at all. In fact, this is called as the curved path of kuṇḍalinī in Yoga. God is omnipotent and does not need happiness from any soul. Therefore, God is never selfish and He loves each soul for the happiness of the soul and the love of God is billion times more intense than biological parents, who are parents only for one birth. God is the Divine Father for every soul in every birth and His love is always for the welfare of the soul. Whenever God incarnates on earth as contemporary human incarnation, He attracts the punishments of the devoted souls onto Him and suffers on their behalf if He is hopeful of the reformation of those souls. By taking such punishments, God allows the soul to put full spiritual efforts in peace by removing the grief caused by the punishment so that the devotee reforms completely and attains permanent salvation. Except the path of reformation (realisation through spiritual knowledge, repentance through devotion and practical non-repetition of the sin in future), there is no other path to destroy the sins accumulated by the soul.]

 

[O Radā! You are My only darling. O Anaghā! Did your ignorance get destroyed? For the sake of welfare of the world of devotees, you have imposed this ignorance upon your role.]
