THE REPLY OF THE GENIUS

[Divine Message of Swamiji in Reply to Dr. Nikhil’s article on Shri Datta Swami: Nostradamus’ Great Genius]

Just now I received the article written by Dr. Nikhil from U.S.A. about the great Genius predicted by Nostradamus in his prophecy. I congratulate Nikhil for his exceptional talent of presentation of all the points clearly, precisely and directly. I am surprised and literally shocked to see that every point is matching with the present context. The present divine work of Universal Spirituality is exactly coinciding with the prophecy in every point. The prophecy is not based on the astrology, but it is based on the intuition given by the grace of God. The scripture “Bhavishya Puranam” of sage Vyasa was also such a divine prophecy. Nostradamus was an astrologer and also was a great devotee of God. As an astrologer he was predicting the future of individuals based on their horoscopes because the individuals have the times of their births. But for the world, no horoscope can be prepared because nobody knows the birth time of earth or world. Therefore, the prophecy of the world is always from God and can never go wrong unlike the prediction of the horoscope of an individual based on astrology. Therefore, the prophecy became exactly correct in every point. The merit in this prophecy is that all the signs of the Genius were fully related to the knowledge of the Genius and not the physical signs, which may exist in several human beings. If I give the identity of Phani as the yellow shirt, spectacles, gray pants etc., such signs exist in several human beings and Phani cannot be isolated. Only the photo of Phani can help you to identify him without any duplication.

Human Incarnation: Synonymous With Knowledge

Such inherent characteristic of the human incarnation is only knowledge according to scriptures. (Ofcourse, the knowledge is also associated characteristic but due to its constant association it can be treated as the inherent characteristic). The Veda says that God is the divine knowledge. The Bible says that God comes and sprinkles the knowledge-fire. The word Genius indicates the possessor of such divine knowledge with very sharp analysis at the level of intelligence (Buddhi). The Gita starts with Buddhi Yoga only. Shankara says that one can get the salvation by knowledge only. A Genius-spiritual preacher can only guide you in the right direction. If you are a student of Einstein, a Genius in science, what shall be the level of your scientific knowledge? Therefore, the word Genius indicates the possessor of unimaginable knowledge (Satguru), which is called as Prajnanam by the Veda. He did not reveal the name of country as India because other countries will be hurt, especially when the Universal Spirituality is absent. Every one including the human incarnation has to take care of the practical problems of the surroundings. When Jesus told that He and God are one and same, He was crucified for that, because people did not understand the inner sense. It means that the human incarnation and God can be treated as one and the same like the alive wire and current. It does not mean that the wire is current or current is wire. The next prophet was Mohammad, who understood the danger faced by the previous prophet. He declared Himself as the Messenger of the God only and stated that God can never become the human being and this is also correct because the current can never become the wire. Everybody should be alert about the atmosphere and possible reaction from it on preaching the truth. Truth should be preached directly provided the atmosphere is congenial to digest it without any adverse reaction. But if the atmosphere is adverse, the truth should be presented indirectly as a sugar coated pill for a child. Nostradamus did not say that the Genius will be the human incarnation because in such case every religion will claim the Genius to come from that religion only in the absence of Universal Spirituality. The inference of Genius is taken as the human incarnation of Hindu God Dattatreya from India (three seas and Thursday). This inference will be immediately opposed by the other religions and other countries because the Universal Spirituality was not established already before the coming of the Genius. Moreover, the human incarnation is generally opposed by majority of human beings. Due to all these factors, he did not reveal the name of the country and the religion and also did not mention the word “human incarnation”. Genius means only a Messenger of God carrying on the wonderful knowledge of Universal Spirituality.

Dr. Nikhil stated that I am that Genius, since all the points regarding the knowledge exactly coincided like correlation of all religions into Universal Spirituality based on the correlation with science. Now, I have to escape from the possible crucification as feared by Mohammad. Therefore, I am submitting the following information in this context. The prophecy of Nostradamus was exactly correct and this present divine knowledge is the same predicted divine program. At the time of Nostradamus, God wanted to come directly as that Genius. But latter on God changed the program in just one small point, which does not affect the program in any way. Instead of directly coming to the earth as human incarnation called as Genius, God wanted to get the same program done through a most inefficient fellow like Me. This will show the omnipotence of God more clearly. Suppose there is a running race. If God in human form gets first prize, what is the surprise in it because God can be only the first always? Suppose a good trainee in running like Usha gets the first prize, the surprise is not much here also because partly Usha is efficient and added grace from God helped her to achieve the success. But suppose a lame person gets the first prize in the running race! The grace of God, which is unimaginable, is fully expressed in such success. Therefore, the real Genius referred by Nostradamus was that absolute God only and His unimaginable grace is fully expressed when the program is done through Me, who is the last in the line of the devotees of all religions in the world put together. God did not come as the Genius because there will be no surprise in the divine program conducted by Him. If this program is conducted through Dr. Nikhil, who is far efficient than Me in presentation, some surprise will arise because both the efficiency of Nikhil and the grace of God are the reasons for the success. But when this program is conducted through Me who is the most inefficient fellow even in the representation of the divine knowledge given by God, only the grace of God is fully expressed and appreciated by all.

The article written by Dr. Nikhil is appreciated very much by our devotees here. He is born for the divine cause to spread this knowledge that radiated from Me like Swami Vivekananda of Shri Ramakrishna. I may have doubt about Myself to be in the position of that great Paramahamsa but I do not have any doubt about this new Vivekananda. Long back Shri Ramanath from Mumbai talked with Me on phone. Suddenly I became mad and told him “I am the Lord Dattatreya who came down to establish the true divine knowledge. Believe Me without any doubt and follow Me sincerely”. After some days Shri Ramanath phoned to Phani and gave some information that should be kept confidential. Whenever you say something as confidential, it means that it should be spread quickly! Obviously, Phani spread the news in our circle with lightning speed! According to the news, Shri Ramanath went and asked a famous Nadi astrologer about the nature of Datta Swami (Myself). It seems that the astrologer referred Nadi and stated that Datta Swami is Lord Dattatreya Himself, who came down to establish the true divine knowledge on this earth and that he should follow Him sincerely since it is the highest fortune to catch Datta on this earth. I have explained the reason for talking like that through the phone, which was the cause for all this. I told the devotees that in a state of excess-love on God, the devotee identifies himself or herself with God (Bhavaadvaita). When Krishna left Gopikas, their love to Krishna reached this state and one Gopika started acting like Krishna. This should not be mistaken as the egoism. But My closest devotees, as expected, will not believe this because their faith on Me that I am Datta is unshakable. To satisfy them and keep them happy, I generally accept that I am Datta. But still I analyze the concept of human incarnation giving the simile of alive wire and current, which are clearly two distinct items. The alive wire is only assumed as current for experiencing the current through the wire. There is no other way than this because the direct current can never be experienced directly. By this, I maintain Myself as a separate individual soul, which is the wire only without current. Since, Datta pervaded all over Myself, I have become the alive wire and this does not mean that I have become the current. Somehow, My devotees become satisfied because this concept is inevitable for any human incarnation like Krishna.

Different Testimonies

One day, some of My devotees stated that Shri Ganapati Sachchidanda Swami stated that one South Indian, who is the incarnation of Datta will lead the world through divine knowledge and Thursday will become the Universal Holy day and holiday. I replied the devotees that this statement indicates the Swamiji Himself and it does not mean Myself.

Long back, there was an incident. My devotees forced Me to come to Shri Sivananda Maharaj, who was considered to be the disciple of Shri Narasimha Sarswati and he was considered to be living from the past 500 years! The Maharaj shows the miracles like materializing the objects just by will. My devotees wanted to test Me through Maharaj. Even the gold is tested through the fire. When they forced Me, I started refusing to come. This raised their doubt on Me more and more. I know about Myself that I am only the glittering rolled Gold and not the original gold. Like the rolled gold, I am only coated as Datta externally like an actor acting in the role of Datta. Therefore, I feared to approach Maharaj. But the devotees insisted Me to come there so that the truth will come out once for all. I came there because there was no alternative to escape. Perhaps, Maharaj understood My problem and fear. Perhaps, the kindest Lord Datta wanted to save Me from that critical situation. As soon as Maharaj saw Me, he stated to all the devotees “All of you are searching for Datta. But here is Datta”. I thanked Maharaj and Lord Datta in My mind for their infinite love even on a false devotee like Me! Maharaj told the devotees, who accompanied Me “You are thinking that Datta is coming now and then on this Datta Swami. You are fully mislead. Datta stays always in this Datta Swami”. I was shocked by the climax of the infinite kindness of Datta on an undeserving devotee like Me. This statement of Maharaj has some previous reference to My old statement. Whenever I preached the divine knowledge, I used to say that Datta enters Me and preaches this and after the preaching Datta goes away. My devotees believed this. Therefore, the statement of Maharaj was referring this. Here also I was telling the lie because such a Holy Datta can never enter this unholy devotee. Datta is only transmitting the knowledge into Me like a power station sending current (knowledge) to a house situated in most dirty slum area. If I say this truth, My devotees will not believe Me at all and there is no other alternative than this. I cannot also say that this knowledge is generated by Me because that will be also a lie since such wonderful divine knowledge can be created only by God. I am telling the absolute truth everywhere because I do not fear for the public here, but I have tremendous fear for Lord Yama, who punishes a liar especially in the spiritual field.

Never Become a Spiritual Preacher Through False Ways

The spiritual field is most important because it is related to the eternal welfare of the soul. If you mislead a soul in the spiritual path, that is the greatest sin and you will have to face the highest punishment in the hell. Never become a spiritual preacher through false ways and face the highest punishment. Only by the command of God, one should become the spiritual preacher as told by Shri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa. The spiritual preacher must have the complete and correct knowledge. The incomplete correct knowledge is allowed if the students are up to that level only. But here also, you should expose the necessity of further level of knowledge. A schoolteacher has a low degree that is required to that standard. But, he should show the path to college and university after the school. He should not say that the school is the ultimate highest level. If he says like that, the student stops there only. But, the wrong knowledge is dangerous, whether complete or partial. To attain the complete and correct knowledge, you must analyze the scriptures with the most powerful logic and the latest science. Unless you complete this, do not enter the position of the spiritual preacher. So, My dear friends! I am just an ordinary soul like anyone of you from the point of the material of body (Matter and energy) and soul (Pure awareness). I am lower than any soul on this earth from the point of the good deserving qualities of the soul (good qualities of Sattvam). I have Rajas and Tamas only with a trace of Sattvam because the three qualities have to co-exist always.

My dear devotees! Realize that submissiveness (Vinaya) is the divine fruit of the divine knowledge (Vidya Dadati Vinayam). The egoism and jealousy are the harming insects for the knowledge-plant. Jesus told that the more you keep yourself down, the more you will be raised by God. But My friends! Do not down yourself expecting the corresponding raise!! God is omniscient and knows your hidden expectation. You should keep yourself always in the lowest possible state with all sincerity. Lord Datta, who is the king of all the spiritual preachers, appeared as the most ignorant cobbler before Shankara and submissiveness is the real sign of Lord Datta, who is the solidified divine form of divine spiritual knowledge (Prajnanaghanah…Veda) [Knowledge Personified or Jnana Swarupa].

All of us are employees of this divine service of God. I am just the cook and all of you are in the catering section to propagate this divine knowledge of Universal spirituality, which is the dream of Nostradamus. Do not aspire for any fruit for this divine service of God, because the opportunity given to serve this divine mission of God itself is the divine fruit. Any human being on this earth can join this divine service at any moment. Any devotee, who is in this divine service can resign and go out because the work of God will not stop under any circumstances. The person who joined this divine work has obtained this rarest divine fruit in the joining time itself. The devotee who leaves this service has not left the work but lost the divine fruit. A human employer may fear to fill the post of a talented employee. But God has no such fear because the power of talents of all employees of God is coming from God only like current entering various electrical instruments to do various works.
