We've Got to Get Our Message Through

The
entire Planet Earth has been plunged into a suffering
condition, which is becoming more and more intolerable
with the passage of time. Everyone is poisoned by the
influence of the Kali Yuga, the Age of Kali, the age of
quarrel and hypocrisy. The good news is that we have the
antidote for this Kali poison. We have the message which
can save the world. Therefore the great challenge which
is now facing us is how to get this message of pure love
of Godhead through to the entire human population so
that they can properly understand and implement it.
There is no challenge greater than this. All other
challenges pale into insignificance in the presence of
this challenge.

Editor's Note: The Kali referred to in the above is not
the female goddess Kali, who is a great devotee of the
Lord. This Kali is the male personality, who is the
personification of wickedness. The two names are
pronounced differently. The "a" in name of male
Kali is a short "a" and is pronounced like the "u" in
"but." The "a" in the name of the female Kali is a
long "a" and is pronounced like the "a" in "far."

Question:
Paramatma in the Heart of Sinful Men? |
|
Dear Spiritual Master,
I doubt that there is the Supersoul, the Supreme Lord's
form known as Paramatma, situated within the heart of
the human body. If the Paramatma, who is eternal, full
of knowledge, and bliss, was actually there inside the
human body, how could a man commit crimes such as
murder, stealing, rape, sexual assault, molestation etc
etc?
Please guide me.
Regards,
Pankaj M.

Answer: Paramatma
Impartially Facilitates Everyone |
|
The Paramatma, the form of
the Supreme Lord situated within the heart of the living
being, plays a neutral role. If the living entity wants
to remember God, the Paramatma will help him do that.
And if the living being wants to forget God, the
Paramatma will facilitate him in that way as well. This
is confirmed by Krishna as follows in the Bhagavad-gita:
sarvasya cāhaṁ
hṛdi sanniviṣṭo
mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca
"I am seated in everyone's heart, and from Me come
remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness."
--Bhagavad-gita 15.15
Therefore a man's misuse of his free will is not an
indication of the absence of the Paramatma. Rather it
indicates that the Paramatma, like an affectionate
father, is facilitating the desires of His naughty
child. This does not mean, however, that the Lord is
neglecting the ultimate well-being of His child. To
deliver His lost child the Lord also appears as the
Paramatma's external manifestation, the bona fide
spiritual master, whose only business is to remind the
forgetful soul of his eternal identity as a servant of
the Lord. The spiritual master's mission is to deliver
all the fallen souls of this planet back to their
original home in the wondrous Spiritual Sky.
