Three Kinds of Devotees & Tests:

It Is Sinful To Blame Baba

By Stating He Gives Tests, Harasses, & Puts Thorns On The Path

Ananda Marga Scripture says, “Karttrtva karma karmaphala ["Doership, action, result of the action"]. Human beings do the actions, and the results come according to the law of nature — the Lord has nothing to do with it. So when people are in trouble, they say: “Oh God, what have You done to me? What put this into Your mind?” But the fact is that Na’ra’yan’a, God, has done nothing, and had nothing in His mind. You have done something and are suffering the consequences. You are in trouble and you are crying out. Many people are like this. But Na’ra’yan’a has done nothing. As you have sown, so you now reap. This is the plain truth.” (Discourses on Krsna & the Giita, “You Have the Right to Action Only”)

Some people unfortunately do not like to admit their own sins and faults. And in due course when they face the samskara (consequence or reaction), they blame God, i.e. Parama Purusa Baba, for their wrongdoing – thereby committing sin. That is the central idea of the above teaching.

In 1970, Dadaji lost faith in Baba because of his own bad samskaras of the past. That time he was very frustrated and he started blaming Baba & accusing Him: “He (Baba) confused my mind and that is why I lost faith in Him.” But, falsely accusing and blaming Guru in this way is sinful. Yet, that is what Dada Tapeshvaranandji did in his book. True bhaktas do not blame God for the suffering which they faced for their own sins. That is the essence of the above cited Ananda Marga scripture.


Difference Between Good And Bad Devotees

Everyone has to undergo their negative and positive samsakras according to their good and bad deeds.

True devotees realise that when they are facing difficulties etc, they are simply undergoing the reaction of their past actions. They also know that action-reaction theory saves them from harming others. Top grade devotees understand all this in the depth of their heart. So when they are suffering they become more alert not to harm others in the future.

Second grade devotees waver when they are in difficulty. Sometimes they say that this is due to their past samskaras, and other times they blame Guru for putting them in trouble and giving them tests. According to their own whim, their mind flip-flops from one perspective to the other.

Those who are third class or low grade devotees blame Parama Purusa 100% of the time. They accuse Him that without rhyme or reason: “Sadguru is giving tests and putting me in trouble.” By this way those low-grade bhaktas push themselves further into sin.

Even after knowing the truth, they do not want to accept or recognise the fact that they are facing the reactions of their own sin. 

By the grace of Parama Purusa, when one grows spiritually then they never blame or say "Guru gives tests." One cannot think in this way. Rather when facing any problem they say or feel that this is due to their past samskara. This is basic difference between first, second, and third class devotees.

Namaskar,
In Him,
Satyajiit

~ This Morning, In The Stream Of Your Tune, I Have Threaded A Garland ~

"Toma'ri surero srote, a'j prabha'te ma'la' genthechi...” (PS #1843)

Purport:

O’ Lord, this morning, in the stream of Your tune, I have threaded a garland especially for You. Whether You wish to accept and wear it or not, please know that I love You. According to Your wish, I have completed the task. Now it is up to You to accept it or not. But please remember, with great reverence, love, and affection, I have tried to complete all that You have graciously allotted for me.

O’ Lord, Your divine tune is coming from an unknown origin and floating into my heart. With the resonance of rhythm and melody suffused in each and every song, I practiced those divine tunes.

Those melodies go on floating in various directions in the physical, psychic, and psycho-spiritual realms, and also in the resonance of my drowsy mind. Amazingly, by Your grace, I caught hold of those divine melodies in the unnamed songs of my heart.

Baba, please accept my offering - I surrender at Your lotus feet...
