Guest guest Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Brahman is formless. But it will assume a form suited to the circumstances. This is the descent of the Avatar. It may be a Poorna Avatar like Shri Krishna and Sri Sathya Sai. It may also take partial forms to achieve a desired results. These are "Macha(Fish), Kurma(Tortoise), Varaha(Boar), Narahari(the man lion form to anhilate the demon 'Hiranyakasubu"), Vamana(the dwarf). The above Avatars were for specific purposes. Poorna Avatar takes place, when the Evils of Kali are rampant, man forgets his duties, lead unrighteous ways, indifferent to the directions of scriptures, commit all sins for personal gain, indulge in adultery and other heinous sins. During Krishna Avatar, many demons met their end in the hands of Shri Krishna. The war at Kurukshetra reduced the burden of earth and anhilated the notorious clan of "Dhrutarashtra" All the one hundred sons of him have perished in the battle leaving no body to perform his rites. He also perished in a forest fire. His attachment to his own children dealt the death blow to his clan. But in the present age, If all those who are unrighteous are to be removed from earth, nobody would be left. Hence Swami wants to transform the mentality of mankind by His own life and Message and His practical hints on Service to Society which He undertook several years ago, now blossomed into "Super speciality Hospitals rendering health care to all free of cost, "Institutes of Higher learning" now become full fledged "University" offering "Free education from KG to PG as well as MBA, MFM, M.Tech etc. The water supply schemes instituted by Baba render people who were hitherto suffering from contaminated water in ponds and wells, walking many kilometres, now get water near their streets. Protected water supply all through the year to many villages in many towns and cities. Even in tribal hills of Godavari districts, the scheme has been successfully implemented. How we are all going to show our gratitude except shedding tears of "Ananda" for the Advent of the Lord?. Sairam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
