Shri Kishore Ram asked: You have given two powerful messages regarding Pravrutti. Is there any mistake on my side regarding pravrutti?
Shri Swami replied: I have given the messages to you because there is no mistake on your side in Pravrutti. The style of Lord Datta is to indirectly preach the people, who really need rectification in a specific line, by preaching directly the person, who does not need rectification in that specific line. If you preach a sinner regarding his sin, he will be hurt due to the basic inherent ego that is touched by your message. If you give the same message to a non-sinner in the presence of the specific sinner, your preaching will touch the sinner secretly without damaging his ego. The non-sinner will not be worried because he has not done that sin. The message will work as curing medicine in the case of sinner so that he will try to resist the sin from that day onwards. The same message will act as preventive medicine in the case of a non–sinner also, who may face the same sin in future. Therefore, the medicine is not only for cure but also is for prevention. Hence, every message is useful to everybody either for cure or prevention. You need not reject any message from the divine preacher thinking that it does not apply to you, now. Lord Datta has given this message to you since it does not apply to you. Since it is not applicable to you, you need not be worried at all. It is meant for the sake of certain other sinners only. Lord Datta does not give the message to the people, who need it. If He gives the message to the needy people, that will hurt them because nobody likes the sins done by him to be known to anyone else. If you declare the sin of anybody before all the people, the sinner will be hurt and will not accept the sin. Such a person will never have transformation, which should be done only in privacy.
Arjuna asked Lord Krishna several questions, which are not related to him. He asked the points related to the general humanity. It may be seen as if the question is related to Arjuna to hurt his ego. But, the ego of Arjuna was not at all hurt since he conquered his ego and for the sake of humanity only, he appeared as an ignorant person asking answers for his sake. Arjuna asked the Lord regarding the control of unstable mind (chamchalam hi...) appearing as if his mind is unstable. He had totally controlled mind and pleased Lord Siva by doing severe penance through perfectly stable mind. He did not mind regarding the untrue insult coming on to him for the sake of welfare of the humanity. He was the incarnation of sage Nara. Taking Arjuna as the ideal example, you can bear the insult that has fallen on you for the sake of the welfare of humanity.
God Likes Secret Transformation Protecting Your Dignity
Generally, Lord Datta throws all the ignorance on Himself and gives the message so that the privacy of the ignorant person will not be hurt in any way. You should take whatever is applicable to you and rectify your sins at least from today onwards. All the sins done by you in that specific track shall be cancelled by the Lord if you do not repeat the sin in future. This is the real practical confession. Mere theoretical confession without rectification in practice is of no use. The Lord does not like to hurt you or insult you in any way, but, likes only your secret transformation protecting your dignity. The transformation must be real and permanent even if it is a secret. There is no use of public confession if the practical transformation is unreal. This is the reason why Lord Jesus wrote the sin of everybody on the sand without opening it to anyone else.
Almost all the human incarnations stressed on pravrutti only, which is treated as the ultimate goal. Of course, nivrutti is the ultimate goal. But, nivrutti will crumble into pieces without the basic pravrutti. Certainly, nivrutti is the highest, which is higher than the pravrutti. The castle above the earth is in the higher level than the underground foundation. But, if the foundation is absent or defective, the upward construction will totally collapse.
Pravrutti is just the minimum most expected nature of humanity that you should follow as a human being. It is not something to be achieved. It is something that you should always posses in inherent natural way. The fire should be hot and the water must be cool. The expected nature, which is the minimum most standard, is pravrutti.
The reflection of pravrutti in spiritual path happens to be the nivrutti. For example, we consider that ungratefulness in pravrutti as the highest sin. Its reflection in the spiritual path is that you should express the gratefulness to God always for the continuous favours done by Him starting from the grant of human birth to you. Whenever a miracle was expressed, Jesus always submitted prayer to the Divine Father with extreme gratefulness. The gratefulness expressed by you to any person helping you brings out this divine quality in the case of God also. Nivrutti is only the extension of pravrutti. Your failure in pravrutti will lead to not only the loss of higher benefit in the future, but also will result in the loss of the present status. Not only the loss of promotion, but also the demotion is the result for the failure in Pravrutti. If you fail in Pravrutti, you can never dream to enter the kingdom of Divine Father. Not only this much, but also, you can never dream of getting this present human birth again in future. When you are unfit to be a human being, how can you think of becoming a divine angel? You deserve to become an animal or bird, which always spends all its entire life time just only for securing the livelihood even through sinful ways. When you earn the money through sinful way, which is more than your required quantum for livelihood, you will become an animal or bird or insect to earn the minimum livelihood through the same sinful way. Earning more than the required livelihood in wrong way is sin. But, earning the livelihood through wrong way is not that much sin. Therefore, your transformation from human life to the life of the animal is for betterment only. You should know that this punishment is also a favour to you because you are transformed from sinful state to a state of lesser sin by becoming the animal after the human life. After several millions of births as animal, if God becomes confident that you will not do corruption again in the human life, there is a possibility for you to become a human being.
Generally, such a chance is very very rare because the soul coming from the birth of animal to the human life will again be curved like the tail of the dog. Therefore, think about the horrible future that results due to corruption in Pravrutti. A corrupt soul can never enter the inner circle of God because you will be corrupt in the divine service also. Even God fears for the corrupt human being! Therefore, the basic impression or the first impression of a soul is through Pravrutti only. The soul will continue in the lives of animals forever because such a life is far better than the corrupt human life. Even the most cruel animal earns the food when it is hungry only. But, this human being earns and earns even though it is granted wealth for its hundred future generations! In this way, the continuous life as an animal is certainly a favour to the soul than the life of a corrupt human being. Hence, nobody should blame God that the life of the animal is a punishment given by God based on His vengeance. The far better life of the animal in comparison to the life of a corrupt human being is a real favour to the soul due to the boundless kindness of the Divine Father. God is so kind that even His punishments are boons only for the humanity if the real analysis is done.
