Speeches of Shri Datta Swami in First World Parliament on Spirituality Part-9

Posted on: 01/06/2018

Positive View of God:- Positive view of God must be understood by deep analysis so that you will say that every item created by Him in this world was created for a positive purpose only and not for any negative purpose. God is omniscient and will not create anything with negative view. Some things have become negative due to their misuse by human beings and are stamped as negative. For example:- i) Sex was created with lot of emotional intensity and the view of God is creation of future humanity through legal sex...

Speeches of Shri Datta Swami in First World Parliament on Spirituality Part-8

62) Service Needed:- Service needed is important whether you do it to God or to humanity (‘serve the needy’). Needed materials shall be served to poor if they are not reformed through spiritual knowledge since money may be wasted through vices by which they are caught. When you serve your preacher, who is not having vices, you can serve him with money since you don’t know his actual need. When God Rama is sitting...

 53) Donation of Food:- Donation of food to a hungry person is the justice of emergency (Aapat Dharma) and analysis of deservingness of receiver shall not be done here. Even the life of an atheist must be saved from hunger death, which is the only shame on this entire humanity. If you save the life an atheist also, there may be a future opportunity to convert him in to theist. Instead of burning oil lamps, candles, sticks etc., the money spent in such acts can be saved to protect the life-lamp of a hungry person to preach him spiritual knowledge...

Speeches of Shri Datta Swami in First World Parliament on Spirituality Part-6

Posted on: 29/05/2018

Defective Beginning:- Defective beginning is always justified and God also encourages the devotee without finding fault with the defect. But, to sit in the defect only throughout life is not justified. A child is given chocolates to go to school and the child is not criticized for its lack of interest in the school and for its interest for chocolates only. The defect is tolerated in view of its little age and huge ignorance in such age. But, as the child grows, the chocolates are withdrawn assuming that the grown-up child as young person must have developed...

Speeches of Shri Datta Swami in First World Parliament on Spirituality Part-5

Posted on: 28/05/2018

Value of God: Value of God is generally mentioned as the highest in our prayers, which is a lie in practical light. We have given entire wealth to our issues and not a single rupee for God’s work. The value of God is not even a trace of the value of our issues. But, we mention the value of God as infinite in our prayers (theoretical devotion). Are we not trying to fool the God through our prayers when we know very well that God is omniscient?...

Speeches of Shri Datta Swami in First World Parliament on Spirituality Part-1

Posted on: 27/05/2018

The Veda says that God is unimaginable and is beyond words, beyond mind, beyond intelligence and beyond even imagination. He is beyond form and formless. Earth is with form and space is formless. God is beyond both earth and space since both are created by Him. The objects with form and formless objects are present in the space. If God is imaginable, there is multiplicity in the imaginable items and hence, everybody is fascinated to a specific imaginable item. Somebody says that Sun is God, somebody says light is God and somebody says that space is God. This leads to different philosophies and religions resulting in quarrels disturbing world peace and sometimes ending in terrorism...

Speeches of Shri Datta Swami in First World Parliament on Spirituality Part-2

Posted on: 27/05/2018

Caste and gender by birth must not be given any importance. Believing the gene theory in the caste, which only says that certain mannerisms are transferred in a dynasty, people confuse the mannerisms for qualities. God said in the Gita that caste shall be decided by qualities and subsequent deeds only (Gunakarma vibhaagashah). Gender is worse than caste since differentiation by gender is seen even in the same caste! Krishna is born in Yaadavas (BC caste) and the feet of His statue are washed by a Brahmin priest...

Speeches of Shri Datta Swami in First World Parliament on Spirituality Part-3

Posted on: 27/05/2018

All the incarnations are same since the same unimaginable God exists in all the incarnations, human or energetic. Hence, the possessed power by all incarnations is one and the same. The difference lies only in the quality and quantity of the expressed power suitable to a spiritual program planed in the incarnation. Based on the difference in the expressed power, incarnations are classified as:- Kalaa or ray or a radiation of 1/16th part of total power expressed (sage Kapila)...

Speeches of Shri Datta Swami in First World Parliament on Spirituality Part-4

Posted on: 27/05/2018

Astrology does not contradict the spiritual knowledge. Astronomy is science dealing with physical planets in the space, which are in the visible-imaginable domain only. Astrology deals with invisible-imaginable domain and explains about the deities of these nine planets representing the nine executive forces of God in the administration of the world. You shall not say that the deity of moon is not found on landing on the planet of moon. The deity is the owner and planet is his house...

Take Devotees Like Hanuman and Gopikas Only as the Authority

Posted on: 26/05/2018

Shri Balaji asked:- A devotee worshipping the divine mother is feeling disturbed that divine mother will become furious if some mistake happens as told by a highly devoted preacher.

Swami replied:- God is worshipped in different forms like parents, brother, issues, husband, darling etc., as per the personal taste of the devotee. There is no speciality of any bond and the speciality lies only in the weight of selfless love existing in that bond. Sweets are prepared...

Best Safe Method for Incarnation Is to Stand as Servant of God and Speak Spiritual Knowledge

Posted on: 20/05/2018

Smt. K Padma Ram asked:- Why do you always speak to us as if you are a devotee of God Datta while we strongly believe that you are the incarnation of Lord Datta?

Swami replied:- Incarnation means that God Datta entered and merged with Me. This merge results in three ways:- (1) total merge or monism of Shankara. (2) Partial merge keeping basic dualism and external monism of Ramanuja and (3)Perfect dualism everywhere of Madhva..

Eligibility for Incarnation Is Not to Have Selfishness and Have Sacrifice to Work for Welfare of Other Souls

For Scholars Posted on: 19/05/2018

Spiritual discussion of Shri G. Lakshman with Swami. (Shri G Lakshman came to Hyderabad and had a spiritual discussion with Swami, which is presented below:-)

Shri Lakshman spoke:- What do you think about the association of miracles with preaching the spiritual knowledge?

Swami replied:- Miracles are only basic steps of spiritual knowledge, in which an atheist is converted in to theist. After this step, miracles have no significance in the spiritual path since a theist is that person, who accepts the existence of God with unimaginable power (God accepted may be the ...

Shri Dattaguru Bhagavat Gita: Shiva Khanda: Chapter-11

Posted on: 14/05/2018

God-preacher Shri Datta spoke:-

  1. After hearing the knowledge, You must think and analyse it to get conformation. When You are confirmed in it, You must implement it in practice. Confirmation means digestion of knowledge. Propagation of the knowledge helps digestion like walking and exercises help digestion of food. More the digestion, more will be practice. More practice means more grace of God. Hence, don’t think...

Soul Can Do Any Work on Developing Real Devotion to God

Posted on: 14/05/2018

Shri P V N M Sharma asked:- “In Bhakti TV channel I found one person by name Shri E K Girish preaching monism that the soul is supreme and can do anything if self confidence is developed. Please analyse this point.

Swami Replied:- Let a human soul develop its self-confidence for any number of years that it can lift a hill, can it lift the hill by its self-confidence on any day? If it thinks that it will lift the hill on one day by improving more self-confidence, it is called as overconfidence. Therefore, the soul can’t do everything by developing self-confidence, which is just in the theoretical phase. The concept of self-confidence works...
