Spiritual Quest ?

This is the chat between Me and one of my Sister, Sreevidya Moorthy, incidentally happened on net.Few of you may find this interesting.This is what I am offering as a spiritual discussion.Please feel free to ask any question regarding this.Mail me at acharya.vasudev@gmail.com


Sree says:
Hello!
acharya_vasudev says:
hi! Sweet sis
Sree says:
how are u?
acharya_vasudev says:
fine. Apki kripa hai.
Sree says:
lol
Sree says:
no..bhagvan ki
acharya_vasudev says:
that is inside you. Isn't it
Sree says:
hold true for everyone
acharya_vasudev says:
agreed
acharya_vasudev says:
but at a time I can talk about only few of them.That's why I said it is you.
Sree says:
it hold true for u too
Sree says:
holds..god is there in u too
acharya_vasudev says:
That I left for you to say.
Sree says:
anyways
Sree says:
wonder why he sits and lets bad things happen
acharya_vasudev says:
bad and good are relative, Sree.What is good for us may be bad for anyone else. For example.Rain in this season is good for Rabi crop but bad for common man who are spending their night at footpath.

Sree says:
there are some things which are universally bad and good for everyone
Sree says:
like war..like famine, poverty, disease
Sree says:
he lets them happen
Sree says:
he doesn't stop people and animals from suffering
acharya_vasudev says:
suffering are the outcome of our own karmas.
Sree says:
he created us...he wants us to turn to him..he hold the power for anything
Sree says:
he can pull a string and it changes our whole life
Sree says:
he created us...and it's all a drama for him to watch.
Sree says:
when did karma start from?
acharya_vasudev says:
From the very first act of creation.
acharya_vasudev says:
and creation starts with illusion.
acharya_vasudev says:
Maya
acharya_vasudev says:
It doesn't start at all.
acharya_vasudev says:
He created us from within without.
Sree says:
it's confusing
Sree says:
why give us people to love and then ask us to stay detached?
Sree says:
when u love ..u love 100% and then u risk losing the person u love
Sree says:
else ur love is half hearted
acharya_vasudev says:
true.
Sree says:
be it mother, father, sister or spouse
acharya_vasudev says:
but love is not always "getting the person" only
Sree says:
no..it's about sharing
acharya_vasudev says:
In losing someone there may be a sting of love.
Sree says:
ur life ..enriching it
acharya_vasudev says:
Without losing how can you know the pleasure of getting
Sree says:
but then ...we are not supposed to be taken in by pleasure?
Sree says:
we are supposed to be unaffected
Sree says:
we are not supposed to want
acharya_vasudev says:
unaffected takes you to detachment
Sree says:
so...that's my point
Sree says:
why give us the world and expect us to stay away from it to reach him
Sree says:
how can u explain karma to a person in grief?
Sree says:
who doesn't have a good home or meals for a day?
acharya_vasudev says:
see my sweet sis...... losing or staying away is not what detachment is.
acharya_vasudev says:
you are being too emotional with the suffering of others.
acharya_vasudev says:
just a minute....take a example when a person commits genocide.... and in next life he suffers like what you are saying.......what is the problem.....the problem is you are seeing only a part of the picture......God can not be so cruel......
acharya_vasudev says:
If in next life Bin Laden suffers.... will there be a problem for you.?
Sree says:
no
Sree says:
but people became victims of him
Sree says:
what harm did people in the towers do to him
Sree says:
I would think he deserves to suffer
Sree says:
people who make others suffer should undergo the same suffering
acharya_vasudev says:
they also are suffering due to their destiny.... I mean their past karmas
Sree says:
acharya..if anyone can answer..where it all started from..I would be intrigued
Sree says:
from where I stand..I see that we are doing everything to please god
Sree says:
so we are safe from pain
Sree says:
because he pulls the strings..he controls
acharya_vasudev says:
The problem is we are seeing only a part of HIS movie.
acharya_vasudev says:
The story of full movie is that there is no movie at all.
Sree says:
then ..what's the point
Sree says:
we are entertaining the greater power?
acharya_vasudev says:
See..... you go to cinema hall.....you see a movie
acharya_vasudev says:
you see many things moving from here to there.
acharya_vasudev says:
but in reality nothing moves
acharya_vasudev says:
you are being shown more than 40 still pictures at a time
Sree says:
then ..I feel life has no meaning
acharya_vasudev says:
which you are unable to catch as your eyes can not differentiate between so fast
Sree says:
everything is in vain
Sree says:
I don't have to do anything
Sree says:
no drive, no motivation
acharya_vasudev says:
nothing is moving in that hall
Sree says:
cause everything is an illusion
acharya_vasudev says:
no no sweet hold on please.
acharya_vasudev says:
not illusion
acharya_vasudev says:
the real enjoyment is to make a movie yourself and enjoy it alone
acharya_vasudev says:
that is what god is doing
acharya_vasudev says:
or I may say you are doing.As He is within you.
acharya_vasudev says:
Feel him and you will start to see a movie.Making directing and as well as seeing.
Sree says:
I don' t understand the logic
Sree says:
but that
Sree says:
is like what's written in the gita
Sree says:
God comes across like a real power wielding character...who wants everyone to turn to him and dedicate their lives which are given by him to him alone
acharya_vasudev says:
you didn't understand because I failed to make you understand this.
Sree says:
no...u did explain it well
acharya_vasudev says:
but I am pleased with my efforts
Sree says:
I have to discuss a lot more
acharya_vasudev says:
anytime my sweet sis.
Sree says:
thanx anyways
acharya_vasudev says:
thanks to you too... for attentive listening
Sree says:
I was asking the questions...I was very interested in the answers
Sree says:
please go ahead with ur work..thank you for the time
acharya_vasudev says:
bye bye. Take care.
