KARMA - DOES GOD INTERFERE - H H Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

There was a person in a village who had acquired occult powers through intense penance. He was a close friend of a merchant in the village. Whenever the merchant had any problems or troubles in his business or personal life, he would approach this person and have his issues instantly resolved by virtue of the divine powers acquired through penance.

After all, the merchant was human too. One day, he picked up a quarrel with this divine person over some issue and it became a big fight. Now the merchant was in depression. He lost his self-confidence and fell sick. This was because he was terribly afraid that the same friend of his, who had done a lot of good to him during his heydays, could now deploy his occult powers to harm the merchant, now that he is his deadly enemy. This very thought troubled the merchant and he became fit for nothing owing to depression.
One goes to the temple and prays to the Lord. Imagine that the Lord destroys all his bad Karma. Fickle-minded human that he is, tomorrow he may turn against God and start abusing Him or denying His very existence. Then he would think, ‘Oh! God! when I was close to God, He absolved all my bad karmas. Now that I am no more grateful to Him, will He destroy my good Karmas too?’ This very thought will make his life a miserable one.
Hence, unless one is a great Bhakta or surrenders to God through a ‘Uttama Guru’, the Lord does not interfere with his karmas.

Destiny Vs Guru Kripa - His Holiness Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 If a person’s life is according to his poorva vasana/destiny, How can a guru help him?

We may have taken thousands of births and committed millions of sins. No matter how colossal that figure maybe, it is unquestionably well within the realm of the finite. Guru’s boundless grace though, is immeasurable, limitless and infinite.
The tapas and grace of the Sadguru can make up for his Karmas and takes him to the path of liberation quicker.

Happy Birthday His Holiness Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 

Kali Santarana Upanishad - His Holiness Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 There are ten key Upanishads and a host of other Upanishads. There is an upanishad that talks about the greatness of the Mahamantra

“Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare”
and this Upanishad is called “Kali Santarana Upanishad”.
This name is significant in that, it bears the name of the Yuga, and hence decries that there is no other go for all of us in this Kali Yuga other than the Mahamantra.
–Sri Sri Swamiji
