Gurunathar’s Divine Message Moolam Pooja 22-04-2011
While you come to be here, it is normal for problems to come and be resolved. I would like to emphasize that it’s not the God’s who bring on or resolve the problems. When the time comes for KARMA TO BE COMPLETED, ONE MAY HAVE TO EXPERIENCE A LITTLE SUFFERING. To illustrate this, a proverb comes to my mind ‘Mullai Mullinal eduthal vendum’ (A thorn can be removed only by another thorn). When you have caused others pain, you too have to suffer the same pain is the law of Karma. Please do not blame God for this.
Before going to other explanations, I would like to answer a question that someone asked. “Where does fear come from? How do we get rid of this?”. Generally fear comes from our having to face the unknown. I shall give you an example: When you learn to ride a two wheeler even a stone in your path makes you get off the vehicle, sometimes even fall and get hurt. However, after you have learnt to ride, the fear goes and you are confident. Similarly children, when they learn to walk, have to fall several times before they get up and later even start running. When they do this they forget all their falls do they not? Similarly fear goes with acquiring knowledge. My advice would be when you are afraid of something go back and face it.
When you repeatedly do this the fear will go. Even here I find some people who go and hide out of fear. Because of fear some actions are not performed. I would like you to understand if you do this you are the ones who will suffer. It is my point of view that if we keep doing what you are afraid of the fear will vanish. It is also my request to deliberate before you act. Because of what I have said, don’t try to hold a snake in your hand. In our day to day life youngsters feel nervous about attending exams, perhaps doing maths or attending interviews for jobs. They cannot afford to sit at home and avoid them. If you overcome this habit you will become fearless. The maximum anyone can do is to take your life. If you surrender this life to God, then what is there to fear? Keep this in mind and engage in action.
