I felt that one should not to get annoyed or angry with
those who question us about some thing? Had there been
no such eager seekers, there may not be any Smruties,
Sruties or Puranas. Doubts give scope to pertinent questions.
Why should we be angry with the person for questioning?
Instead let us endeavour to provide a satisfactory reply by
giving factual information about which they are ignorant. It is
better to keep mum and leave the place if we do not prefer to
respond. Let us not lose our temper and peace of mind. We
should not be too concerned with the acceptance or rejection
of our views. It is foolish to imagine that we can attract
everybody by convincing them to our way of thinking. Every
one has a right to have his or her own thought and decision.
Truth will unfold at an appropriate time.
I know that it is an impossible task for a small and insignificant
person like me to detail about Almighty's real nature. Let the
learned pardon me for my audacity. The inspiration to speak
comes from Lord Sai himself. I have full faith that He will get
the mistakes, if any, suitably corrected.
My friend's two questions are:
I. Is Shirdi Sai Baba also a God?
II Are the present Gods not enough?
It is obvious from the questions that my friend is a 'Theist' (One who
believes in the existence God). I am glad about it.
To the second question: "Are the present Gods not enough?"-My
friend seems to be under the impression that as it is there are many
Gods in Hinduism. Probably he refers to the various deities that
are being worshipped by different sects. He may also be vexed
with their antagonisms and quarrels. But one thing is very clear.
He is of the firm opinion that God is there. Let us discuss this
second question first and then delve into the realm of
the first question later.
To be contd....
