[Smt. Sudha Rani asked: All the Holy scriptures on earth, also among Angels, Gandharvas etc. Who live in the upper world, are always searching for God, Praising God, Discussing His Kalyana Gunas. Except for dhyanam, all these devotional activities are done with verbal conversation only. In which condition of the sayer and the listener, is silence meant for pointing to the Unimaginable God. Swami please enlighten us. Wishing to be the inert and minute dust at Your Lotus feet forever, Sudha]
Swami replied:- The unimaginable God cannot be the goal of worship or devotional emotion because He is beyond even the imagination. Such devotees searching for the unimaginable God continue to be in searching stage only forever. Only mediated God is important and even in this side, the mediated God with common medium is the most important goal for which there is no need of any trace of search. The human life is not sufficient, even to please God through true love even though God is available in human medium before their naked eyes. Apart from this, if you add search for God also, it becomes impossible to please God. This human life is very short to develop true love to God without any selfish aspiration and hence, God in a common medium is very very important and such God is called as the relevant form of God. Other forms are irrelevant because they will be useful for the theoretical phase only and not for practical sacrifice and service. People also want to avoid the practical side of devotion and want to fix themselves in the theoretical phase only, which is very convenient. These Hypocritical devotees leave the human form not only based on ego based jealousy towards common medium, but also based on the practical inconvenience. The actual reasons are hidden in their minds and only false reasons are expressed to save their dignity.
