Satsanga On Guru Purnima (24-07-2021 contd...)

O Learned and Devoted Servants of God,

22.The present stamped Spiritual preachers are not doing their actual duty as expected by God. They are mostly dealing with the human psychology and suggesting various methods to pacify the pain experienced by the human beings suffering from the punishments of their sins. A patient is suffering with fever and the so called doctor is not giving proper medicine to cure the fever and is concentrating on advising certain external remedies like keeping wet cloth on the forehead. The actual medicine to be given to them is the programme of reformation (Realisation, Repentance and Non-Repetition of Sin). At least, they are not advising the people to pray God and develop devotion so that at least God will postpone the present punishments to a future date to be paid with interest. What is the use of the external remedies without curing the disease with the proper medicine? The present Spiritual preachers acting like full time psychiatrists are spending 90% of their time in advising people with superficial psychological remedies to forget the pain in difficulties without curing the cause of the pain. They shall concentrate all their time about God only, Who is the only divine doctor.

23.Pravṛtti is to gain benefit to please yourself using God. Nivṛtti is to please God using yourself even if undergoes loss. The greatest fruit of Nivṛtti is that God makes eternal bond of love with you in which there is no business and accounts and hence, Nivṛtti is said to give the highest fruit (Nivṛttistu mahāphalā…). But, this fruit shall not be in your mind at all and you shall always proceed with real love having one-way traffic only. To please God, you may have to fight against even justice of Pravṛtti and must be prepared to go to hell and enjoy the punishment with full willingness and joy. All the 16,108 wives of Kṛṣṇa refused to give their feet-dust to cure the headache of Kṛṣṇa fearing that they will go to hell by doing so. But, Gopikas gave their feet dust to sage Nārada telling that they are ready to go to hell for the sake of happiness of Kṛṣṇa. Rādhā, the leader of Gopikas did not care for hell and fought openly against justice for the sake of Kṛṣṇa. The punishment for such sin committed in pleasing God is enjoyed by God for the sake of devotee with full pleasure since God is overwhelmed by the unimaginable Nivṛtti devotion of the devotee. Not only this, punishments of all the previous sins of such extreme Nivṛtti devotee are also enjoyed by God and the soul is totally liberated from all sins forever (Sarvapāpebhyo mokṣayiṣyāmi…- Gītā). Such a devotee always stays close to God in the upper world accompanying God in His work on the earth also so that there is never a trace of separation at any time between God and devotee.
