Gurunathar’s Divine Message Moolam Pooja 12-06-2006
I heard several people mention the intensity of the summer heat. I ask “ Is this greater than the heat inside you?” I see everything inside you generating all kinds of heat which spoil the clarity of man’s thinking. How is this heat created? We can say that external heat is created by the sun. However there are several reasons for the tormenting heat inside us. This is not one but many suns inside us. The main cause is unnecessary expectations. Because of these man commits several mistakes. I am not pinpointing anybody here. It is only a generalization.
For instance, you start with expecting your child should be a son. If it turns out to be a daughter what sorrow! You feel she is going to cause the downfall of everybody around her. This is not so. In this Kaliyugam, it is woman who is superior to man.
The next expectation is telling your child what he or she should study. You do not think of the individual soul’s need. This is a major reason for discomfort. Thirdly, if he or she chooses a path different from what you have planned, once again what distress! Some parents become so upset they feel the purpose of their lives are lost.
A fourth expectation that can cause distress is the parents wanting to choose the life partner of the child. If the daughter says “I don’t like him”. Prompt comes the response “that doesn’t matter, he has property and earnings”. So several conflicts are created at home and arguments take place. The result is similar to an earthquake. When peace is lost you seek God’s help. You tell him:” I will perform an abhishekham will you give me peace?Here is a business deal – a contract in the making. The priest could tell you that God doesn’t need your abhisekham but he does not. According to him, if you give him a dakshina of two hundred rupees , God will forgive everything and anything. This becomes a continuous process in life itself.
Why is man’s relationship to God reduced to the level of a commercial transaction? Do you still feel that the sun’s heat is more than what you are experiencing within. This is not so. The sun’s heat can be reduced by the fan in the shade. But we cannot do so with the conflicts inside us. You must find a solution to this is will be my general opinion. I shall stop advising you now. Henceforth you must identify your problems and seek to solve them, and the guidance will come from a higher source.
