Anil Kumar Questions and
Answers
Question 43
God is
goodness. God is full of values, while man in contrast has no
values. Man is brutal. He’s horrible. He’s crazy. What shall I do
now? (12.01.2003)
Man has become brutal and crazy due
to his own actions. I have got a white kerchief with me. It has
become dirty. Who is responsible? I am responsible. I used it and
made that kerchief dirty. Similarly, man is pure. Man is not
polluted. Man is Love, man is bliss; but he made it just the
opposite. It is of his own making.
If I find a rich man begging near a
bank, what should I tell him? “Hey, poor fellow! You are not a
beggar. Go to the bank, check your entries in your passbook, and
then you’ll know that you are a rich man. You don’t have to beg.”
Similarly, this kind of weakness is
of our own making; it is not of God’s design. Why? Because of our
selfishness. Why? Sensual pleasure. Why? Attachment. Why? Physical
comforts and conveniences. When these things are gone -- the
selfishness, arrogance, avarice, lust and desire -- when these
things are gone, then you are pristine, pure, as fresh as a
newly-born babe, as fresh as a newly purchased kerchief, so dry,
and white. But I made it so dirty, with the passage of time.
