1. Can the parents of the Incarnation show love to God if He reveals His identity?
[Shri Durgaprasad asked: Paadanamaskaaram Swami, my questions are related to the issue based devotion towards God. Can the parents of the Incarnation show the natural issue based love to God if the Incarnation reveals His identity? At your lotus feet, Durgaprasad]
Swami replied:- Even a false incarnation will also say that he is the real incarnation of God. It is the responsibility and duty of the devotee to find out the real incarnation of God filtering out false incarnations. The devotion or love must be natural and spontaneous like the water spring that comes out of the earth. Promoting factors of the spring do not exist. Hindering factors fail and this is the better identification. When the love is based on the attraction of the divine personality of God, nothing can stop it. If it is mixed with doubt or based on business, the spring of love is like appearance of water on digging for a long distance as in the case of well. The fan devotion is the best example where there is no business at all and all the attraction is based on just the impression of the personality.
2. What is the eligibility to become the parent of an Incarnation?
Swami replied:- God selects His parents. Even the incarnation is selected by God only. Aspirations for such things becomes a permanent disqualification to attain such divine opportunity. Desire must be supported by deservingness. Aspiration is not relished by God.
