Shri P V N M Sharma asked: Some devoted friends are telling me that Swami should answer some recent pungent videos in which strong slogans like ‘God of our religion is only the God’ are heard.
Swami replied: This creation is created for the entertainment of God without any violation of justified rationalism. A drama or cinema contains all nine modes of entertainment (Navarasas) in which confusion creating tension (Bibhatsa) is one. The justified rationalism of this is that such people giving these slogans act as the examiners of the devotees having faith in Universal Religion. Similarly, atheists act as examiners of the faith of theists. In the entertainment of God, justice is always maintained. Only in human beings, there are some sadists whose entertainment lacks justice. Your pain to such slogans indicates your pass in the examination that pleases God.
