[Mrs. Priyanka asked: Even when the unimaginable God comes down as human incarnation, He "knows" about the pot due to His unimaginable power only and not because of awareness of the human incarnation right?]
Swami Replied: In the case of the human incarnation, the unimaginable God merged with God Datta, and God Datta merged with the human being component. Finally, it means the unimaginable God merged with the soul and body of the human being. Whenever the unimaginable God wants to express Himself, the body or the soul of the human being component behaves with unimaginable power. Because there was a perfect merge of unimaginable God with the body and soul of the selected human being, this does not mean that the body and soul of the human being shall always behave as unimaginable always invariably. If we examine the imaginable items, when the electricity merges with the wire, the wire always exhibits the nature of the merged electricity in the form of giving a shock. But here, the unimaginable God, Who merged with the medium is not like the electricity, which is an imaginable item. The electricity and wire are imaginable items and follow the rule that once the electricity merged with the wire, the wire will always give an electric shock. Here, the imaginable items, which are electricity and wire are subordinates of the rule. In the case of the human incarnation, even though, the body and soul of the human being are subordinates of the rules of the nature, after merge with the unimaginable God, both the body and soul of the human being attain the unimaginable nature of God and surpass all the rules of nature. In addition to this, there is another unimaginable point, which is that the body and soul of the human being attaining the unimaginable power of God, need not exhibit such power in all the times like the electrified wire giving shock always.
The body and soul of the human being exhibit unimaginable power of God only when the unimaginable God wishes. Hence, the unimaginable power appears even in the soul and body of human being whenever God wishes. Due to this special point, whether the body and soul of the human being component of the human incarnation exhibits the unimaginable power of God or not depends upon the wish of the unimaginable God. The expressed unimaginable power of the human incarnation is simply due to the omnipotence of the unimaginable God only and not due to the imaginable capacity of the human being component present in the human incarnation. When the iron rod is heated to red-hot in a furnace, the burning power of the red-hot iron rod is due to the fire present in it only and not due to the normal iron rod, which has no trace of power to burn anything. All the credit of burning goes to the fire only and not to the iron rod. But, we can say that the fire merged with the iron rod and the iron rod can be treated as fire for all practical purposes.
We can say that the hot-iron rod burnt the cloth. Similarly, you can say that the human incarnation has done the miracle. You are not saying that the normal cold iron rod burnt the cloth. Similarly, you are not saying that the human being component present in the human incarnation is doing the miracle. Too much logical hair-split analysis spoils the faith of the devotee and the devotee is put to loss. When we say that the red-hot iron rod burnt the cloth, we are bringing the fire also along with the iron rod. If the fire or heat energy has to burn the cloth, it cannot come near the cloth without the help of the iron-rod medium. Hence, we shall not neglect and insult the iron rod due to repulsion between common human media. The main point is that the heat energy that burnt the cloth is inseparable from the iron rod. Hence, your conclusion is correct and I have just explained it elaborately.
