QUOTE: Sensual pleasure is the womb of pain. The cause for pain is the pursuit of pleasure. Sensual pleasure is imaginary, illusory, fleeting and tantalising. Abandon pleasure and rejoice in the eternal bliss of the Atman. He who has destroyed desire is really a harmonised, peaceful and happy man! - Swami Sivananda

This is a long message. Read carefully only when you have sufficient time on hand…to contemplate, to think, and to benefit from.
Anytime you have a problem in your material world, please refer to this email. you will receive the required strength with a technical understanding. This message applies ONLY for seekers, not for the material people whose main objective is to gather more desires in their life and enjoy what they can. IF you are one of those - please read the quote above and close this message...no need to read anything else here.
I am sharing this one with the group because it has some subtle aspects that are extremely difficult to explain without a practical example. I have removed all the personal details from the original email to maintain the privacy of the sender.
Sharing with group so that it may be helpful to others too…because we all live in a material world and we face several material problems in our life….some are manageable and some are difficult to overcome. Where does God fit in these ‘unmanageable’ situations? What is God’s role in our material life?
I always say “God will never ever interfere in human life”. I lie :) There is an exception to this rule. He DOES interfere and change several things for 'seekers'. I am trying to explain this exception with this real life example below.
Before you read this message please note:
My arguments about the Divine are generally forceful. It’s because of my own and numerous other people’s real life experiences that I have seen myself. I would like to repeat again: Faith is a complex topic – especially for those who consider themselves educated, logical and scientific. In a divine perspective, I personally trash science & education both but not the logic, knowledge & wisdom. I always do an effort to provide the logic and technical knowledge behind the way the divine operates. In fact, this is the whole purpose of my website – to provide entirely logical & technical foundation to what I claim about the Divine…Kind of an Open book that will help the genuine seekers out there…and I know they do
At the same time - Everything in this world is just an opinion. You are free to reject what you don’t like and take what you may like. You will still be befitted in this experience…I am just doing my part to serve my Guru. I am bound only to my Guru’s Lotus Feet. I have tried 30 years to surrender before the Divine and Guru…still Maya, Desires & Ego catches me unaware many times, I am trying - visit my divine journey
