[Shri Hrushikesh Pudipeddi asked: Dear Swami, Padanamaskaaram to you. One of my friends asked the below question. The question is followed by his opinion.
‘Eppudu manam undedhi maaya prapancham lo ney kada anna, em chusina tempt aipotham, I mean eppudu oka manchi ammai ni chusthe automatic ga oka abbai attract aipothadu, daaniki reason aa paramathumdu manaki lopala create chesina hormones avvochu inka edaina reason avvochu, but edanta maaye kada anna.
Inko logic kuda ardam kaaledu anna, Anni aa devudu manaki echadu, echi Control lo pettukovali antadu, oka ammai ni chusthe oka abbai attract aithunadu, daaniki reason boys ki gaani leka girls ki gaani undey hormones valla kada anna, aa hormones aa devudu echadu, control lo pettuko antadu, daani badhulu aa devudu asalu evvakunda undalsindi lekapothe ayaney avi control lo undey thattu chusukovalsindi?’
Translation of the question:- Hormones are created by God and based on these hormones, the male is attracted towards a female, which is becoming sin. Does this not mean that God is finally responsible for the sin of the man?]
Swami replied: If everything is done by God only, do you want yourself to be an inert mechanical robot? Even if God makes you like that, you will immediately weep that the cruel God has not given any trace of freedom to you to have some individual responsibility. If freedom is given, one type of weeping comes out. If freedom is not given, another type of weeping comes out. God is very much fed up with these souls, who neither like to live like males nor like to live like females! If they are made neutral, the souls will cry with very loud voice for the injustice done to them!!
The hormones are created by God so that the male and female will be able to generate issues. This is to extend the future humanity for the service of God to continue His entertainment with the souls being born in every generation so that God visits this earth in every generation. Again, this does not mean that the souls are suffering for the entertainment of God. This is foolish blame because no injustice is done in the creation and the aim of God is not only His personal entertainment, but also, the entertainment of souls following justified set up in the creation. Electricity is supplied to all houses with the aim that all people will use electricity following certain minimum precautions. If a foolish person neglects all this background and touches the main source of electricity committing suicide, a case cannot be filed in court that the department of electricity is responsible for the suicide! When God is running the administration protecting justice and punishing injustice, why does not the soul also be happy and entertain itself with the creation like God? Is the soul such an inefficient to follow even the minimum precautions? If the soul is so inefficient, why then does it weep for free will to get rid of the rigid boredom?
