Main Obstacle to God Realization is Attraction to Sense Pleasures

When God is present, why are you suffering? There are three points in God - God is Omniscient (All knowing), Eternally compassionate and Almighty. Remember these three points, and contemplate on them. Being Omniscient, he understands our pain. Being compassionate, He cannot tolerate our pain, He melts on seeing our pain. Being Almighty, He can get rid of our pain. Of these three points, if anyone point is not there, then it will be difficult. Just as, if a person is compassionate, but he is not aware of our suffering, or if He is compassionate, and knows about our pain, but is incapable of getting rid of that suffering! But when all three points are there, and we are still suffering, then it is a very surprising thing!

There was a "kaayasth" (name of a Hindu community) gentleman. He said to me that what to do, my daughter has grown up, but still she is not married. I said to him, that right now only you are worrying about her, but if you worry more, than you and I both will begin to worry, both will begin to cry, what more will we be able to do ? If the compassion grows, then I too will begin to cry, what more can we do? I do not have money, I do not have that much power. In the same way if God feels sorry and if we are not that capable, then all he can do is cry, what else can he do? However, He is entirely capable, He is omniscient and He is compassionate, whereby out of His deep kindness He gets deeply moved. When these three things are present, why are we suffering? In this the reason is, that we do not believe in Him, then what can God do, tell me?


Questioner - The shortcoming is in us only, Maharajji!
Swamiji - Only we will have to remove our own shortcomings, whether we remove it today, whether we do it after a few days, whether we do it after a month, whether we do it after a year, or whether we do it after several lifetimes, it is up to you! When you want to remove it, then you will. Whether you do it now, or after infinite births.
You have accepted the world as your own, and you have not accepted God as your own - this is at the root of all obstacles. Therefore accept God as your own - "mere toh Giridhar Gopal, Doosero na koyi." "Only God is mine, there is none other." You are accepting God as your own, but you do not accept the second part, which is "there is none other". Without accepting this there cannot be exclusivity. It is only when the mind is exclusively fixed on God, that for them God is easily attainable. "Ananyachetaah satatam.. tasyaaham sulabh paarth". (Gita 8/14). The condition is only one - to not to regard the many others as your own.
एक बानि करुनानिधान की ।
सो प्रिय जाकें गति न आन की ॥ (मानस ३/१०/४)
Ek baani karunaanidhaan ki |
so priya jaaken gati na aan ki ||
If besides God there is no other support, there is no other love, there is no other aim, then that one is dear to God. Therefore with exclusive feelings, accept God as your very own. Doing so, is in our hands. It is dependent on us.
You need the support of others in listening to talks, in reading holy books, scriptures etc., but in doing, it has to be done by you only.

Narayan! Narayan !! Narayan !!!
