style as follows. In every religion, every society everywhere, right from

childhood in the olden days, grand fathers and grand mothers taught nice poems,

good lullabies and holy hymns of eternity to children. Thus the child went off

to sleep listening to lovely poem of Divinity of stories relating to the form

of God. The holy hymns, were sund by grand parents. That was the practice

then. And now?... What are the stories now?...Nursery rhymes, nothing to do

with God or Divinity. We hear of "Ba..Ba..Black sheep have you any wool? "Rain

Rain go away, come again another day." Meaningless !

Nothing worth remembering or preserving. Sacred Texts are outdated. They have

become books of ornamentation. Poems of eternity have become insipid and

irrelvant. Vedas are the sacred texts of Sanathana Dharma. Vedas which are

the sacred texts of Santhana Dharma, have become a matter of argumentation

today. Then, they were books of authority but now they are books leading to

confrontation. All the sacred texts of all religion, have become insipid. The

sacred texts like the Bible, Koran, the Dharmapada

that encourged and enthused man, that gave man a purpose in the life now have

become insipid tasteless and meaningless. All the holy books which which

depict ideals showing us how lead our lives with stories and biographies of

national heroes and the history of nations have gone into the drain. No one

cares to read these books today. Then they were the source of inspiration.

Then, they were a source of encourgement. Then they were illustrious examples

worthy of emulation! Now video and radio depcicting murder, violence and

stunts, inspire our children...Children learn from that. The Guru, the

teacher has become a burden to society ,today. No One has time to listen to

Divinity. Instaed man says, "Would you talk to me about computer science and

food technology? ... Food technology ! Has it ever occured to you that for

birds and beasts to eat no technolofy is necessary. All gurus have become a

burden. They don't even get respects. If someonesays, " Iwill talk to you on

human values," we say, "Sorry we have no time. We have no time to listen to

human values. But we have time to be in human. We have time to be sub-human.

For that reason God has not come down this day as a teaches. Today God on

earth is not in the form of a preceptor, teachres, because He is very very sure

no one will hear Him. If God talks to us on the Holy Bible, we will say, "No

time to hear you, give me a copy of your book. I will thank you, if you give me

summary, or sumit up in two sentences, because these are the days of computer

science." If God comes and offer to teach you the Gita, you would not want to

hear it. If you reverse the word "GITA"...It becomes "TAGI". This means drink

intoxication. man wants to be intoxicated with drinks instead. Om Sai Ram,
