In the last few months, there has been lots of news involving the so called Swamijis and their scandals. I have myself seen how these people influence innocent and vulnerable people in the name of providing peace and enlightenment. Have seen how educated, smart and intelligent people are swayed by their gullible talks. These fake people with their conniving talks have made people believe that they are representatives of GOD in this earth and it is through them we can reach HIM, through them all our pains will be erased and we will get peace and tranquility and the supreme power will bestow his blessings on us. If these people are so called manifestation of HIM in this world, then why do they need to lead a life of luxury? Why cant they lead a life of austerity? It makes me wonder what is their contribution to this society, their contribution in eradicating poverty, in providing education and making this world a better place to live in? What is their contribution is erasing violence and removing hatred from people's mind? But should we blame these fake people or should we blame the followers of these people who believe in each and every word of these people as gospel truth? We all know that we are the children of the GOD and he is our parent. Do we need any medium to talk with our parent? In this world when we have any issues with our mortal parents, do we seek any outsider to mediate with them?
Then why do we need any body else to come between us and GOD ?
We all have ups and downs in our lives and during our lowest ebb, we are in a very vulnerable mental strength and sometimes we want some miracles to happen to remove the pain from our life and it is this state of our mind which is taken advantage of. We should all know that and of course it is my personal belief that it is the test of our mental strength and test of our belief in HIM.It's God's way of testing us.Moreover it is a cycle, every good phase is preceded by a bad one and vice versa.I dont think we need any body to convey our feelings to our parents. If we are thankful to GOD during our good phase, we should also accept his test with utmost humility and come out with flying colors.
After all, "Jo jeeta wohi sikandar". What say?
