[Reply to Seshavataram] In the spiritual path, miracles are very dangerous for both the performer as well as the spectator. The performer is attacked by ego mistaking that the miracles were done by him only. But, miracles are actually coming from God only. God performs these miracles through a devotee or the human being present in the human incarnation. Parashurama was human incarnation and was infected by ego after the miraculous killing of all the kings on the earth by himself alone. The spectator also after observing the miracles slowly thinks to use the miraculous power to solve his personal problems and by this, selfishness grows. Thus, miracles introduce the growth of ego and selfishness, which are to be eradicated in the spiritual path. The original aim of the miracles is to establish the unimaginable nature of God through the miracles, which are the unimaginable events happening from such God. God alone decides the time and the deserving person for any miracle to happen. The human being consisting of soul and body is imaginable and cannot perform any unimaginable miracle.
