dattaswami Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 There is no loss to the devotee if the faith is standing still If some body sacrificed totally in practice and realizes later on that the God-ship of the saint is not true, what will be the fate of the devotee? The devotee will be blessed by God even though the saint is not God. The reason here is that the devotee sacrificed with a view on God and hence God will respond through the saint even though the saint is not God. The saint stands as a representative model of God. God is answering you through an inert statue and will He not answer you through a living being? Therefore, there is no loss to the devotee if the faith is standing still. The faith should not be disturbed in any case. If the faith is disturbed, the result is lost. What will happen to the saint, who is not God? If the saint claimed that he is God, the saint shall be punished by God. But, if you have created the faith by your self, the saint is innocent. Therefore, the saint should not declare that he is God and should always keep silent. It is better if the saint says frankly that he is not God. But, some times, the real human incarnation also says that He is not God to test your faith. Hence, your own analysis is important and final. www.universal-spirituality.org Universal Spirituality for World Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
