Anita R, Ms. Bhanu Samykya, Mr. Abhiram, Mr. Hrushikesh and Prof. Annapurna attended this Satsanga and the flashes of spiritual knowledge radiated from Shri Datta Swami are given below in a condensed way.)
[Ms. Thrylokya asked:- You say that a bad person doing sins must be harmed by us to control his sins. At the same time, You say that if somebody harmed me, I shall not retort with revenge and I shall leave everything to God because revenge always belongs to God and not to us. How to remove the contradiction between these two statements?]
Swami replied:- If you are capable of punishing a sinner, you must fight against the sinner and control the sinner from doing more damage to block off good people in the society. If you are capable and also keep silent, you will be punished for your silence. Therefore, when I told that you shall harm a bad person, it applies to the case of a capable person to control the sin. I told that one should leave everything to God, which is the case of an incapable person. The incapable person shall not suffer with revenge. Bhishma and Drona are very much capable of controlling the sin of insulting Draupadi. Bhishma and Drona were punished by God because they kept silent over the insult of Draupadi by the Kauravas. Let us take the case of Vidura, who is very much incapable of controlling the sin done to Draupadi in the open court. He prayed God to control the sin without any revenge. Vidura was not punished for his silence because he was incapable to control the sin. God has done perfect justice by destroying all the Kauravas in the war. But, Draupadi burnt with revenge in the heart and was always provoking her husbands to punish the Kauravas. Anyway, Krishna is going to kill all the Kauravas. Draupadi unnecessarily put her finger in burning with great revenge towards the Kauravas. Due to this interference of Draupadi with revenge, she lost all her five sons. She is also incapable like Vidura and should have left everything to God. In such a case, all the five sons of Draupadi would have been alive and would have ruled the kingdom.
