Once a Student who had joined the College a Few days back asked Swami as
to why God does not Prevent Cruelties in the world and why People should suffer
so much.
To which Swami said Wonderfully :
Devudu is only God is only Sakshibhoota (Witness)for everything that
happens, God never acts. Every single person acts according to what His
Intellect says to him and he himself suffers the consequences of His actions.
Never ever Think at anytime that There is anything like Good or Bad for God. A
Knife is used Differently By a Murderer, Cook, and a Surgeon. But If a Magnet
is placed near all the knives that all these people use, It attracts them
equally, not according to the tasks that each of them perform.
God is exactly like the Magnet, every knife like every person in this
world are the same to him, there is no difference between one person and the
other, But the hands that operate the knives have to bear the consequences of
their actions, dependent on right and wrong.
So also Swami wonderfully said Suffering is not based on God but on your
own actions, You will never suffer if you do good things and always think about
God.
