FAQs – week of March 25
My child is a special needs child. Why do people hurt her a lot? She is pure and does not carry any malice. But why does she has to face this ?
Pujya Maharajshri says that our Soul is pure and radiant and love. The pain , the problem begins when we consider ourselves the body. It’s the body that has relations, it’s the body that performs functions, well for some and not well for many, it’s the body that suffer ailments, hurt and pain . What we get in this life is ALL a result of our karmas. Affection from others or malice , it’s all part of our package, of what we have previously done! Gurujans always enforce that try to remove your ‘taxes’ , rhin! The birth is for that.
Prayers work wonders to nullify the effect of our karmas and to heal us and others. Prayers by pure souls work wonders, So say our Gurujans. Pray for those who caused you hurt, pray and ask for forgiveness for them and yourselves . Prayer is the most potent healer, the best balm ever. If instead of reacting or giving back one prays, the cycle of karma gets broken. Gurujans say that Bhakti can reduce the effect of karmas to a great deal! Gurujans say that prayers work such wonders that gradually instead of feeling hurt one starts feeling compassion for the other person. Such a protective shield gets woven with prayers with the most potent Ram Mantra!
My children’s friend met with an accident and died. They are very upset.
Gurujans explain that this body is not permanent. It’s the Soul that is. So the Soul when comes out of the body, does not suffer any pain. Pain is associated only with the body. But the soul can see, hear and feel everything. Saints say that when a soul comes out of the body it feels strange that why everybody is upset as it is still there. As the Soul can feel the emotive attachment to its relations. Prayers, jaap, reading of spiritual texts, need to be done with greater force at this hour., Prayers need to be done such that it is easy for the Soul to move on with its journey. Gurujans say that as humans this is just a momentary stay and we make this mine and that mine. If the parents are clear with the concepts, they’ll easily transfer it to the children and hence children will know that death is just a change of clothing and that’s it. Only we with human clothing cannot see, but Soul can see, hear, feel everything ! This knowledge will help the children not to be afraid of death as they’ll know that person as Soul is fine and not in pain.
When I see my fellow sadhaks breaking Gurujans rules, or doing things that are opposite to Their teachings , it breaks my heart. I feel Gurujans must be feeling so bad about it. I keep crying when I see these things.
Pujya Maharajshri says that it’s sewa to gently tell the person that the action or the thoughts are not exactly what Gurujans mean. But Maharajshri says that each person has his own individual journey and own understanding. If the fellow sadhak refuses or fails to understand , then it’s always better to be quiet. But if the pain continues, then prayers for the other is the best option and this will make Gurujans take care of the other in Their own way. All sadhaks undergo tests, in order to get spiritually elevated. All have their own weaknesses to overcome. Hence, prayers help to heal us as well as in some way assists other too. But here, the other person needs to be willing to be transformed! But still,secret prayers work wonders they say !
I am pregnant? What should I do to have a child of good sanskaaras?
Param Pujya Maharajshri used to advise sadhaks to read Baal Kaand of Shri Ramayanji or manglacharan of Ramayan Ji during the whole time period of pregnancy. Routine jaap and Sri Amritvani paath needs to be followed. Positive thoughts, good books or granths send positive vibrations to the child that’s developing inside. The foetus inside can feel all emotions. Hence happy , loving , thoughts , thoughts of bravery, thoughts of satsangati of good souls assist in providing a congenial environment for the baBy inside.
My little baby died at the young age of 6. He was sick. Why did it happen to me?
Pujya Maharajshri explains that we have taken birth so as to remove our give and take of karmas from other souls. Hence our parents , siblings, spouse and children are chosen likewise. As we have to remove our karmic bonds with them. So when the account of give and take gets over, the relation no longer remains and the soul moves on with its journey. All are karmas. The pain of illness, of separation, of torture that one faces is all our karmas. But Gurujans say that a sadhak who is dedicated in sadhna, with Ram Naam gets stronger spiritually and mentally. Hence the effect of these karmas get really reduced. Meaning that the pain though is there, but the intensity becomes less. The knowledge brings solace and Ram Naam provides energy to withstand the so called difficult times.
