Srimad Ramayana Tatthva Deepika - Ba:la Ka:nda (21)
From the Bhakti List Archives
• June 5, 2002
Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha! Sri Jeeyar Thiruvadigalesaranam! For Va:lmiki’s question, ‘if Bhagavan had descended to this world as a human being’, the sage Na:rada gives a perfect answer, that this is SriRama. Bhagavan’s main quality is also ‘jithakro:dhathvam’. However grave may be one’s mistake, God neither detests nor punishes him. He keeps on doing ‘srishti’, giving suitable bodies to the bodies, providing a scope to follow ‘dharma’ and giving an opportunity to get rid of the bondage of ‘karma’ through practice. All the souls that continue to ignore His efforts and neglect the ‘sasthra:s’, which are His directives, and the ones which develop a vengeful attitude towards His devotees and become a source of trouble to the world and the society will be punished by Him. This He does by inviting anger. That’s why He says in Bhagavad Gita : “name: dveshyo:sthina priyaha” “one who ever comes to me seeking refuge, whether had been hating me or has been loving me, if he had the intention of ‘surrender’ he will be protected by me." He also said, “kshipa:mi ajasram asubha:n a:suri:shve:dhayo:nishu” “I will throw them into mean and devilish natured (asura bha:va) births." This is Bhagava:n’s nature. This had been shown by SriRamachandra to people through His practice. To be continued ... Jai Srimannarayana!
