MOKSHA MARGA

April 9, 2005

113. N G Chandorkar bowed to Sai and said: Enough of this Samsara for me. As the

Sastras describe it, samsara is really nissara i.e., worthless. Break its

fetters off from me, Baba. What first seems to be joy here is seen to be sorrow

at the end. Fate leads us a nice dance here and there. I cannot discover even a

bit of happiness in this Samsara. I am quite disgusted, I do not wish to touch

it, Baba, any further.Baba: What crazy and delusive talk is yours! There is some

truth in it – mixed up with error. As long as the body remains, samsara remains.

None escapes it. How can you? Even I am caught up in it. Samsara is various

sorts. It is like the surface of the body. Kama (desire) Krodha (anger) etc.,

and any mixture of these is samsara. All mental and bodily processes are

samsara. The contact of any two things is samsara. By going away to a forest

you cannot escape samsara. Your present condition, has been brought about by

yourself. What is the use of irritation at it? This Deha Prarabdha is result of

the karma done by you in former births. This body was, therefore, born. The

jiva takes birth in body to work out former Karma. Without suffering the

results of Prarabdha Karma, you cannot get rid of it. All persons, all

creatures differ in form etc., Why? Because of previous karma of each.

Difference between species, like difference between individuals is due to the

same cause. see the difference between the rich man’s dog lolling on sofa and

the poor man’s running about in search of crumbs. That is due to Deha

Prarabdha.
