[B.Gupta asked: Let the punishments for sins be done before all the people on the earth and not in the hell, which is beyond our vision. By this, perfect discipline will come in to the entire humanity. Why kama (sex) could not be controlled by any soul on the earth and also in the upper world due to which the violence like rape is resulting? - B. Gupta (question in very long form is condensed here).]
Sometimes public demands that a criminal should be executed before the public. But, no execution was done like that till now. If all the executions are made public, that will bring shocking effects in the brain in the case of some people at least. The information that criminal is executed is sufficient to bring threat in the public. The punishments of some serious deeds (Atyutkata paapa) are given in this world itself so that people get disciplined through threat. The person meets an accident and dies before the eyes of public itself. The serious sin done by that person is inferred by the wise public. However, the punishment brings temporary discipline only and only the true knowledge can bring the real transformation of the soul to result in permanent solution by checking the repetition of the sin. The punishment of sin was done by God through several incarnations so that there will be some temporary control. Apart from this, God incarnates to spread the right spiritual knowledge for bringing permanent control.
Kama was created by God so that the children are generated from a married couple so that the race of humanity continues generation by generation. In the Gita, Lord says that kama supported by justice is allowed by God, which means the sex between husband and wife. All the violations of the justice were punished by God as we see in Ramayana, Mahabharata etc. All the bad qualities diverted to God become good qualities that happened to be carriers of the soul to God. Gopikas got salvation by diverting this kama to God. Rape is the sin on the part of the forcing person and forced person will not have any sin. This does not mean that mutual consent in the rape will avoid sin on both sides. In fact, both are punished for betraying their life partners.
You need not worry about the universal administration, which is the subject of God. It is always perfect and divine control reacts in time. You should worry about yourself as an individual and clean your mind. If every individual is cleaned, the entire society becomes cleaned. Therefore, the cleaning of the society should start with you. By the time, you are completely cleaned, you will find the society also completely cleaned because society is only a set of individuals.
