[Human Incarnation takes birth in every Yuga or human generation for His devotees who prayed for Him. And the devotees recognises Him. Why doesn't He like to be recognised by every human being on the earth? Are they not His children? He is the Father of every human being who takes proper care of all. Aren't the majority of present generation missing the divinity and true knowledge preached by Him? Swāmiji, do enlighten me and forgive me for my ignorance. At Your lotus feet 🌷🌹 Anita Renkuntla]
Swāmi Replied:- The question is asked by you with a straight look without looking around in all directions. God comes in human form and His main aim is to preach Spiritual knowledge to His children so that they will progress well not only in the worldly life (Pravṛtti) but also in Spiritual life (Nivṛtti). If God gives direct knowledge about Him to the devotees, they get excited and feel frightened even to ask genuine doubts, not to speak of silly doubts. The devotee can ask all questions with full freedom and frankness only when he /she feels that the incarnation is not God, but, a messenger of God only. If the devotee feels that the incarnation is a messenger only, the devotee will doubt every answer given by the incarnation feeling that the messenger might have added his own poetry to the original message of God sent to earth through that messenger. The incarnation does not bring a registered letter from God like a postman.
If miracles are exhibited by incarnation to show divinity so that the devotee shows care to the knowledge, the miracles again cause excitation. Not only this, the miracles divert the attention of the devotee from true Spiritual knowledge and pure devotion so that the devotee concentrates his hidden attention on solving his worldly problems using the miraculous powers and this increases selfishness. The main aim of the Spiritual knowledge is to preach about theoretical and practical devotion without aspiring any fruit in return due to selfishness and this main aim is totally spoiled. The position of human incarnation is not as simple as you think. It is very complicated surrounded by several contradicting parameters in all directions.
There is a saying “Front well, back pit and neither forward movement nor backward movement”. If the incarnation acts like a devotee so that the incarnation becomes an ideal practical path for devotion, the devotees will not pay attention to the incarnation thinking It as another ordinary devotee like them! If the incarnation acts like God, excitation develops much that spoils the normalcy of ground state required for clarification of doubts and also efforts to exploit the power of God for selfish worldly benefits start through tremendous acting of external devotion! The main problem of the incarnation is how to inject the true Spiritual knowledge into the brain of the devotee considering all the above said side reactions.
