Guest guest Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Dear Saadhaks,devotees,and all other friends Namaskarams. At the outset I am writing something about which I have no authority. The subject is GOD , HIS actions,thoughts,orders,desires and character My human brain can think only at a level much less than other Saadhaks` brains and almost NIL in comparison to GOD`s thoughts. Rebirth is decided by LORD and we can not ask questions based on our level of knowledge of statistics. Bhakti is devotion .It gives the results decided by GOD. I am lead to believe deep devotion washes off our sins and takes us to a higher level in cosmic conscience. Karma is either positive (pleasing GOD) or negative( displeasing GOD) A holy dip at Sangam removes the negative effects of karma. Prayer is communication with GOD. All prayers are not answered because mostly we pray for terrestrial and earthly desires like more wealth,better status etc. God instead intends to give better next life and ULTIMATE BIRTH LESS/DEATHLESS COSMIC BLISS. I beseech everyone`s comments and criticism OM NAMO NAARAAYANAAYA ijswamy ~SWAMY http://gjnanaswarup.spaces.live.com/blog/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Venerable Shantnuji,et all other Saadhaks, Profuse thanks for response. May I add Human mind is of limited scope and so can not explain DIVINITY .I do not have ago to claim I can explain everything. I make a distinction between sin and crime Sin is doing anything against GOD`s/Nature`s wish -- Felling a big tree ,soldier killing enemy ,killing in self defense,hangman killing the condemned, etc are sins but not crimes Crime is violating imperfect man made law.Overtaking a car from left side is a crime in India,,but in US overtaking from right side is a crime. Taking alcohol in Andhra Pradesh is not a crime but it`s a crime in Gujarat. I personally believe that a dip in Sangam washes sins not crimes. Crime is defined,checked,and punished by humans .Human judge is imperfect .A higher court dismisses the judgment of a lower court. I really do not know if only higher animals become humans.I am even told that those who perform good karma are born as Brahmans. Please criticize yours sincerely ijswamy shanracer <no_reply > wrote: Swamiji, so if someone has been really evil, like murdering many people, stealing, etc, just taking dip at Sangam remove that? love Shantnu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
