Nature of Lord is Nature of Teacher

[Guest guest]

Lord Datta is essentially a teacher. His very nature is the nature

of a teacher. If you study the nature of teacher, you have

understood the very nature of Datta. The aim of mother, father and

teacher is only the welfare of the child. But, mother and father may

become lenient due to their blind intensive love on the child. But,

the love of a teacher (Guru) is never blind and is always aimed at

the welfare of student. The love of father and mother may sometimes

spoil the welfare of the child. Therefore, Datta treats all the

living beings in the creation as His students and not as His issues.

Therefore, the teacher is more than father and mother.

 

The Lord created fruits for both good and bad actions. Why should He

create a fruit for an action? Let there be acts without fruits. The

child does mischief, but the mother or father does not punish. In

that case, there is no fruit for that action. Similarly, let the

Lord not punish our sins. If you expect like this, the answer is

that the Lord does not behave like father or mother but behaves only

as a teacher. The child gets spoiled if the mischief is tolerated.

We are seeing this in the world. The teacher will never tolerate the

spoiling of the child and therefore, He will not tolerate the

mischief.

 

God uses the fruits of your sins as punishments and the only aim is

your welfare. This is the reason why Datta is always called as Guru

Datta. Therefore, guru or teacher is greatest. The results of bad

deeds are used as punishments to transform and uplift the student.

Therefore, the result of a bad deed is very very useful for the

transformation of the soul. The results of your good deeds are given

to you just as a relaxation between two punishments. When He

punishes systematically, He is called as Yama. In the interval when

you receive happiness, He is Indra. Sometimes He gives severe

punishments with roaring sound. He is called as Kala Bhairava at

that time. The hell is the special equipment for punishment. The aim

of the punishment is only the real welfare.
