Spiritual Knowledge – Human & Divine Governments:

It is the duty of the human government to propagate the spiritual knowledge in the public starting from a child, which alone can control the sins like robbing the money of others, corruption, nepotism etc. The blind liking for family members, relatives, caste, religion, sex, and nationality are responsible for various present social problems. The blind love to the family members is responsible for stealing the wealth of others and corruption. The blind love for the relatives is responsible for the nepotism. The blind love for the caste and sex is responsible for electing the undeserving people into the government. The blind love for religion is responsible for criticizing the other religions and sometimes killing the people of other religions in mass. The blind love for the nation is responsible for the wars in the National boundaries. If one realizes the spiritual knowledge and finds that all the living beings are like brothers and sisters only and that one God alone is the divine father and that all this Earth is one nation under the rule of the God, all these problems vanish. Krishna was just witnessing the mutual killing of his relatives in which even his sons and grandsons were killed. He protected the Pandavas from the brutal killing by Asvatthama though they were not his sons and grandsons. His protection was based on their merit. He made the son of Sandeepani alive though he was not of His caste. He did not give life to Abhimanyu who was his own nephew. He gave immense wealth to Sudama who is not related to Him and does not belong to His caste. He took away all the wealth and killed Duryodhana though he was his relative. The favour of the Lord was based on merit and the punishment was based on the crime only. All the above bonds were unreal and dramatic in His eyes

I repeat again and again that the government should take all the efforts to propagate the spiritual knowledge at every level and in every corner. Any activity in the public office should be done in the divine atmosphere. All the places of public activities must be converted into temples. If secularism is followed, let the temples have statues of all religions. Every citizen should feel that the omnipresent and omnipotent Lord watches his or her activity. If funds are required to propagate such spiritual knowledge, let the funds of the temples be used for such propagation. The temple funds should be spent for such purpose to bring the constant awareness of the Lord and His all-pervading power that controls each and every activity of the creation. Such programs can be done only under the headship of the religious saints who are well aware of the spiritual knowledge. The officials of the government cannot effectively do such program unless they are well-versed scholars of spiritual knowledge (Jnaninah tattvadarsinah--- Gita) (Brahmanah sammarsimah---Veda). The government officials without any spiritual knowledge will use the funds for public facilities, which should be done only by the revenue collected. The money of God should be spent only for bringing the awareness of God and His rule everywhere. The funds are meant for the propagation of spiritual knowledge and devotion. Any misuse for other than this divine purpose is the greatest sin and the Lord will punish the government. Religious priests manage the funds of the Vatican church and the government is not putting its finger in it. They are managed for propagating the spiritual knowledge and devotion. By this the Lord is pleased and the western countries are blessed with all comforts. India should learn this aspect from the west.

When the government is forgetting its duty to propagate the spiritual knowledge and devotion, the responsibility false finally on the underline ultimate government for which the Lord is the head. Therefore the Lord comes down in human form to propagate this spiritual knowledge and devotion. The Lord also collects some tax from you for His mission. He has already given some facilities like human birth, longevity, health, wealth etc. The human government is collecting the tax without caring for your problems. But the Lord asks for the tax from all of you, which is the time, energy or work and money, which you are wasting in illusory entertainments. You can do the sacrifice of your work (karma sanyasa) or sacrifice of fruit of work (karma phalatyaga) or both according to your convenience. The liberated souls sacrifice fully, which is impossible for all and such liberated souls are blessed by the Lord to be His constant associates, which is the permanent result. The former case is Pravrutti and the latter case is Nivrutti. One should keep Nivrutti as ultimate aim. Pravrutti is like scoring the pass mark in the examination. Nivrutti is like achieving the rare gold medal from the university. The teacher who aims that all the students should at least pass should not advice the pass marks as the goal. He will advise the achievement of the gold medal as the goal of every student. Lord Krishna was such excellent teacher who taught about Nivrutti only throughout Gita. In the beginning of the Gita Lord Krishna stated that he came to establish justice or Pravrutti on this earth (Dharma samstapanarthaya�Gita). This is like a teacher stating that his aim is to see that all the students in his section should pass the examination. In that case the teacher should stress on the pass and similarly Krishna should have stressed on the path of justice. Had Krishna done this, Gita should have become another scripture of ethics like Manu Smruti containing all the rules of justice like a legal constitution. But Krishna emphasised on the path of salvation from the worldly bonds and devotion to the Lord (Nivrutti) for achieving the establishment of justice (Pravrutti).

The teacher is fixing the achievement of gold medal to every student so that every student by putting such hectic effort will at least pass. If you put pass mark as the goal, then every student puts least effort and may fail. If the destruction of bonds is put as the goal at least the bonds will become weak. This is the excellent tactic of Lord Krishna in putting the higher goal to achieve the lower goal. In Bible, Jesus also adopted this tactic and He desired that His dearest disciple should hate the family bonds including the bond with his life. Hating means that one should see his family members as his enemies. When such extreme goal is fixed at least the blind attraction in the family bonds is reduced. In fact these family members were really your enemies in your previous birth. Since you have robbed their wealth, they have come to you to get back their money with interest. This principle of justice is forcing you to earn the money and by such force, you are doing the sins and get punished. When you rob the wealth of somebody by force, you have to not only pay it with interest but also should be punished. Thus your blind love on your family members is responsible for your sins and the consequent punishment.

Mohammed does not mention Nivrutti in his scripture because He claimed himself as messenger of God only. Nivrutti means loving and serving the Lord in person. For that God in human form is essential. But Islam believes only formless God and therefore it is not possible to love and serve the God directly. Therefore the path of Nivrutti has no place in Islam. Pravrutti itself pleases the Lord and such pleasing the Lord is ultimate in Islam. In Hinduism, Christianity and Islam the ultimate enquiry and the punishment of sinner in the hell are common aspects. Gita introduces the teacher and fixes the gold medal as the ultimate goal for achieving at least a total pass. Bible mentions the existence of teacher in the class and explains both the goals (passing and gold medal) separately. Quran also introduces the teacher to the class but shows the single goal of passing the examination. The scripture of Buddhism does not introduce the teacher and emphasizes on passing the examination and to pass the examination by self-reading. But the Buddhists must realize that the teacher is Buddha Himself, since they surrender to Buddha (‘Buddham sharanam�). The scripture of Jainism is similar to the scripture of Buddhism but the Jains should know that the teacher is Mahavir Jain Himself. The Jains also salute the liberated souls who are the top devotees. God pervades all over the human body in the case of Human Incarnation. But God dwells in the hearts of top devotees also and thus salutations to liberated souls are salutations to the Lord. All these are Human Incarnations and are represented by the word Teacher here.

Spiritual Knowledge - Krishna and His Plays
The examination of all these scriptures shows how Gita is an excellent way of teaching the spiritual knowledge and how its preacher Lord Krishna is a full expression of the Lord (Pari-Poorna Avatara). Whenever we remember Lord Krishna, three defects appear, which attack our faith on Him. Defects of others are clearly seen by the minds of human beings. These three defects are (1) stealing the butter (2) doing mischief along with the boys (3) dancing with the maidens in the Brindavanam. Even other religions find fault in these points. People are not analysing the background of the Lord and criticise due to their limited views. These maidens were sages in the previous birth. They prayed the Lord for full salvation. Salvation means liberation of oneself from the worldly bonds. There are three strongest bonds, which are like steel chains (Eeshanas) and they are the bonds with money, children and husband or wife. They are the strongest attractions and full salvation means liberation from these three strongest bonds. The Lord was stealing the butter, which was their hard earned money and thus the bond with money was cut. The bond with their children was also cut because their children were attracted by the Lord only and were not following their parents.

Their bonds with their husbands were also cut because the Lord attracted them in the dance. The reason for the destruction of these bonds was the formation of the new bond with the Lord and there was no other reason. This is the path of Nivrutti. When Nivrutti is absent at least Pravrutti should be maintained in which these three bonds must remain but should not have over attractions. Pravrutti is maintaining the worldly bonds with reasonable and limited attractions and removing the blind attractions. If these bonds are destroyed by any other reason, it is not only useless but also injustice. They will be punished in the hell for such injustice. People some times leave these bonds and think that they have achieved the spiritual progress and this is not correct. Even a stone is not having any worldly bonds and that is not spiritual progress. The stone is not having bond with Lord also.

The destruction of these worldly bonds should be a consequence of the formation of the new bond with the Lord. At least the destruction of the worldly bonds must assist the growth of the new bond with the Lord (Ananyah, Satatayuktanam�Gita). Krishna did all this in Brindavanam only where the sages were born as maidens. When He left Brindavanam He never repeated this anywhere because no other soul except those sages requested Him for such full salvation. Since the sages in Brindavanam got full salvation, He never returned back. Had He done this with the lust, He should have repeated this elsewhere also or at least He should have returned to Brindavanam to do the same. The maidens became mad after the Lord because in Nivrutti nothing and none can stand before the eyes of the devotee except the Lord in the human form (Natat Samah�Veda) (Machchittah�Gita).

Once a lady was worshipping Jesus by applying a costly scent to Him. A disciple of Jesus criticised this and stated that the cost of the scent would have been spent for feeding the beggars. Jesus condemned the disciple and accepted her service. The reason for such personal service is that she is in the path of Nivrutti. She desires only the Lord and is not interested in the social service. The followers of Nivrutti will even leave the justice for the sake of the Lord (Sarvadharman�Gita). Such souls reach the permanent divine abode of the Lord. One cannot compare Jesus with a rich man who is also enjoying a similar service. The rich man is not God and he has to please the Lord. The final goal is not his selfish pleasure. In the case of Jesus there is no other God whom he should please. The service done to Jesus protected that lady in this world as well as in the upper world. But the service done to the rich man cannot protect anybody. Once a rich man approached Jesus and asked for his future duty in order to enter the Heaven. Jesus told him that he should give away all his money to the beggars. Jesus did not ask him to bring costly scent to be applied to Him. The rich man belongs to the level of Pravrutti and is interested in his personal upliftment and personal enjoyment in the heaven. He is not interested in Lord Jesus. Thus the Pravrutti and Nivrutti should be differentiated. The ignorant people who are unaware of this difference will mistake Jesus to be fond of the application of the scent by the tender hand of a beautiful lady. Dan Brown in his book “Da Vinci Code� writes that Jesus married a lady called “Mary Magdelene� and also had a child. Krishna and Mohammad had several wives. Buddha was also married. Sankara was a bachelor but Sankara required the knowledge of sex education for the sake of a debate and received the sexual experience practically for the sake of that debate. Therefore it is immaterial weather the Lord in human form is married or not. Some souls love the Lord through such bond. The Lord just reflects back in the same way to please His devotees (Ye yatha mam –Gita). The Lord is the fire of knowledge and any stick will be burnt to ashes. When the Lord comes in the human form, He plays with all the qualities existing in the universe. He created all the qualities only (Yechaiva Sattvikah�Gita) for His divine play meant for the entertainment. The Lord created even Satan. In a cinema the role of villain also exists and the actor of that role is also paid. Any quality that is used for the entertainment and pleasure of the Lord is good and sacred. Any quality that is turned towards selfish pleasure and these worldly bonds is bad and impure.

The ultimate aim of this universe is only His entertainment. Even Satan is sacred since he is playing his role sincerely by testing the firm faith of the devotees. You must hate his attraction for diverting you from the Lord but not the Satan. Jesus told that you should hate the sin but not the sinner. The Lord is beyond qualities because the qualities consist of the subtle body (Gunateetah�Gita). These qualities are tools of His divine play and He is not the subtle body. Therefore He is not the qualities and is untouched by them. A human being is the subtle body and is controlled by the qualities. He is a tool to the game played by the qualities (Nanyam Gunebhyah�Gita). The Lord uses the bad qualities as His mask so that the undeserving devotees do not approach Him for any favour. He is also using these bad qualities to test the firm faith of the sincere devotees. Apart from these two uses, Lord Krishna used these bad qualities to give full salvation to the sages in the Brindavanam. No human being can understand the Human incarnation. Every human being easily misunderstands the Lord in human form. Krishna loved Radha extensively. He married her secretly. But He left her within two years and never returned back even to see her. Moreover He married several girls and was living happily with them. This is the climax of the bad qualities. He tested Radha for her jealousy but Radha was never jealous and never uttered a single word against the Lord. In fact she became mad for the Lord and died remembering Him always. The climax of bad qualities was used by the Lord to test the climax of devotion of Radha. The test is not for His knowledge as He knows the truth but the Lord wants to exhibit the height of the devotion of Radha to this world as an ideal to be followed by devotees.

You can find Jesus in Krishna while preaching the Gita. You can find Mohammed in Krishna while fighting with the evil forces. You can find Jesus in Mohammed while the latter was preaching Quran. You can find Mohammed also in Jesus when Jesus states that He will throw the evil people into the fire of permanent Hell. Buddha also was a kind teacher but He also stated that people with desires would suffer with continuous misery in this world. The kindness and cruelty are the two hands of the teacher (Paritranaya, Vinasayacha�Gita). Eeshwara is the Lord present in this huge cosmos. Krishna is the Lord present in a small human body. The Lord in both is one and the same. The size of the reflected object remains one and the same in two mirrors of different sizes. The two mirrors are qualitatively same but differ quantitatively. Similarly, the cosmos and the human body differ quantitatively but are similar qualitatively. The components of both cosmos and human body are common which are the five elements and the four ‘Antahkaranams’. The Antahkaranams are Manas (Mind), Buddhi (Intelligence), Chittam (Memory) and Ahankara (Egoism). The activities of these four are called as qualities. Therefore all the qualities present in the cosmos must exist in the human body of human incarnation. All these qualities can be categorized under three headings, which are represented by the three divine forms. All good qualities called as Sattvam represent Vishnu. Some bad qualities like jealousy are called as Rajas, which represent Brahma. The remaining bad qualities like egoism called as Tamas represent Siva. Lord Krishna showed His body as the cosmos in his Viswaroopam. Each of these three qualities exists always with the association of the other two qualities, which may be quantitatively small. This means that in a particular context one of these three is expressed and the other two are hidden. Hidden means not absent. They exist without expression. Therefore every human incarnation is a true representative of the cosmos containing all the three qualities in equal proportion. This is the meaning of Lord Datta having the three faces of Brahma, Vishnu and Siva. Datta means the unimaginable God donated to the devotees through a visible human body. The six hands of Datta represent the six modifications of the human body, which are existence, birth, growth, change, reduction and death.

Therefore the word Datta means any human incarnation with the association of the three qualities and the human body following all the rules of the nature. But people expect Datta to be a peculiar form with three heads and six hands to be placed in an exhibition. A scholar will grasp the inner meaning of the pictorial representation. An ignorant person catches the picture only. The Lord is compared to the sun who removes the ignorance-darkness by his light –knowledge. The ignorant person thinks that the sun is the Lord. The Lord is compared to the fire that burns all the doubts with His flash of knowledge. The ignorant person worships the fire as God! Thus Datta means the human form with single head and two hands into which the Lord entered. Infact there is a pictorial representation of Datta with a single head and two hands also. These three qualities mix in different proportions and form the thirty three crores of deities, which are shown in the vision of Viswaroopam. This again represents the various qualities or feelings, which are generated by the combination of these three qualities. The devotees of Vishnu say that Vishnu alone is the God due to His good qualities. But anger is the quality of Rajas and how do you justify Lord Narasimha with full Rajas? Shirdi Sai used to scold horribly whenever he became angry. Therefore you should not judge the Lord by His qualities, which are only the three colours of his shirt (Subtle body). Only His subtle body or the shirt contains the three colours, which cannot touch the colourless Lord. One should be very careful about the Maya, which consists of these three qualities. You should not loose your grip on the Lord by the exhibition of His Maya.

The Maya is generated from the Lord like the electricity from the generator. By analysing the structure of electricity, you cannot get any information about the structure of the generator. The creation is a modification of Maya. By analysing the creation, you can catch Maya because the phase before modification can be easily achieved by analysing the phase after modification. The electricity is modified into light. By analysing the light, you can get the structure of electricity. Therefore you can touch Maya through the analysis of the creation. Maya is called as Parasakti or awareness, which creates, maintains and destroys the creation. But when you analyse the Maya it’s source called Brahman (More precisely called as Para Brahman) cannot be touched (Brahma Puchcham) (Mayadhyakshena�Gita). Therefore Brahma, Vishnu and Siva are nothing but the three divine forms created by Maya while the universe is created, maintained and destroyed. The human body, which represents the cosmos, must also contain these three divine forms in terms of these three qualities. The various combinations of these three qualities represent millions of feelings, which stand for the millions of Deities. The source of Maya called as the Lord or Brahman or Para Brahman enters into a human body. If the human body is energetic form, the gross body is made of one element only called as Agni or Energy.

If the human body is on the earth, it is made of five elements. The Viswaroopam with several divine heads or Lord Datta with three heads and six hands can be energetic body only because in the energetic form only such peculiarities are possible. Krishna is the gross body made of five elements. The energetic body belongs to the upper world and when the human beings go to the upper worlds with energetic bodies, then only they can see such divine energetic forms. But on the earth such peculiarities are not possible in the human bodies. Krishna had always one face and two hands. Arjuna wanted to see the divine energetic form of the upper worlds with this human body. Lord Krishna said that it is impossible to see that divine energetic form with these earthern eyes because these eyes will become blind by such radiation. Therefore the Lord gave the energetic eyes, which anybody can get when the energetic body is obtained after death. This is the explanation of the highest divine vision given by Krishna during the preaching of Gita. All this creation is withdrawn into Maya and Maya is withdrawn into the Lord. This is like the cinema on the screen is withdrawn into the film and the film is withdrawn and hidden in the box. The cinema or the film is not destroyed. Both are again projected whenever the Lord wanted entertainment (Visrujami Punahpunah�Gita). But once upon a time even before the production of the film, neither the film nor the cinema existed. This state is referred to the pure monism of Brahman (Ekaki, Ekameva�Veda) (Mattah Parataram�Gita). If the Lord wishes, He can destroy the film and show you that earliest stage. But He need not prove it to you and for that He need not destroy the film like a fool. This hidden state of the film is called “Avyaktam� (Dhata Yatha purvam�Veda) (Avyaktadini�Gita). Therefore the Maya (Film) is hidden (Avyaktam) for some time and is exhibited (Vyaktam) for some time. The Lord is permanently Avyakta (Hidden) because He is always unimaginable. Thus the Avyakta (hidden state) is temporary with respect to Maya and is permanent with respect to the Lord. Such hidden Lord becomes exhibited in energetic forms for the sake of the souls present in the upper worlds. The same Lord is exhibited to the human beings on this earth in the form of human body (Manushim Tanu Masritam�Gita). This is the God in Flesh in Christianity.
