THE DASBODHA BY: SADGURU SHREE SAMARTH RAMDAS ...

he is the mind of everyone. In this scenario Lord Krishna the Guru of all the Gurus becomes the
most vulnerable personality with the uncontrollable mind of all the living things, yet this is not the
case and is similar to the paradox already mentioned. The methodology to remove it is the same as
mentioned earlier.
Lord Krishna said all this to make the difficult things on the path of
spiritualism easier for the common disciple who in the beginning is unable to comprehend the
complex issues involved in it. He knew that most of us like to remain in the visible scenario which
for us is far easier to understand and therefore he took the risk of reducing himself to our level so
that we can then identify with him and then listen to his preaching and then put it into practice. It is
common knowledge that we like to learn by examples found allover around us. Lord Krishna
belittled himself for the sake of us but we shouldn’t take it on its face value and say that he too was
a prey to the illusions of the Maya. By doing so he made the path of our Sadhana easier. Here again
we have to submit to the Guru to fully know the intricacies of Lord Krishna’s play of words. These
types of paradoxes are found in Vedas, Mother Shruti and other scientific religious works which
have to be removed with the Guru’s blessings and soft and kind preaching. This is the one and only
way to get rid of these paradoxes which can’t be solved by any amount of debate or deliberations.
The doubts and the objections regarding a hypothesis are to be
resolved by proofs not only in science but in spiritualism as well. In both the fields this may lead to
endless discussions. In both the fields thus it is most of the times better to listen to the authorities
for explanations and be satisfied with it, more so in spiritualism. In both the fields though, the final
answer will rest with you after the enlightening experience. Shree Samarth says that it is better not
get overly involved in such type of meaningless discussions, and instead be involved in a fruitful
dialogue ending in the feeling of your own self. The Parbrahma which is utmost pure and without
attributable properties, intuitively imagined that I am alone and I should now express in all the
possible ways, which led to the creation of this universe. The origin of the universe being an
imagination it just can’t be in an existential form.
Most of us who worship the God in some viewable form create many
forms of him from many things starting from mud and stone to the most precious metals. We
worship these Gods created by us or given a visible form by us with all the possible means and we
have total faith and belief in them, so much so that when they break or are stolen we are
dumbfounded and are liable to feel that either the God was untrue for he couldn’t protect himself or
it was our bad luck or destiny that such a thing was to happen. We either blame the God or the
destiny or those forces which made it happen. Regarding this Shree Samarth says, It is foolish to
blame the God or the destiny which you think has taken him away from you leaving you to suffer
for although the God is everything you have forgotten that it is there inside you too and that can
neither be destroyed nor stolen. It is the ignorance of this fact which leads to such utterly faulty
thoughts. The religious scriptures do say that you should pray the God in some form in the
beginning but you do it for the lifetime blissfully ignoring the further preaching that it should be
done as a means to prepare your mind and body for the further Sadhana by which you should be
able to look for and unify with the God inside you. This ignorance leads to another one that all this
was destined. He then mentions that the happenings that you have to undergo are definitely
destined but the destiny decides your fate by keeping an audited account of your sins and holy
deeds! It is then utterly idiotic to blame the God or destiny. The blame in fact is solely yours! One
should not forget that these thoughts and feelings arise due to the complex interplay of the Maya,
the primary duty of whom is to envelope you in the tentacles of the illusions. Once you understand
these intricacies with the blessings of the Guru the whole picture becomes absolutely clear, so clear
