People often think that there is so much bad going around and feel why does God just sit and do nothing about it? People see suffering in this world, and then wonder if there is a God why doesn't he finish the suffering that exists? Pragyan Vaidya an advocate from Ahmadabad, Gujarat asks this question to Swami Mukundananda in this final episode of the question & answer session.
Swamiji answers him and says that time and again people come to him and tells him the same. He gives an example of the 2013's flooding of Uttarakhand and says that the natural calamity has shaken many out of their belief on God, many have turned atheist.
We can make lot of expectations from God. Forget about finishing sufferings, why does not God make one fully knowledgeable? Why does not God release me from the realm of material energy? Why does not he make me a God realized saint? It's within His ability to do so. Swami Mukundananda asks back, "Are these demands that we put on God actually reasonable? Take God out of the picture for a while and consider the government of the country. We have prisoner, now if a prisoner says that it is within purview of the powers of the government to release me, why is the government not releasing me? The government will say it is within our purview and jurisdiction but the question is you take a look at what you deserve. You are in the prison house because that is what you deserve. Similarly God's purview and jurisdiction is infinite. But we should look at what we deserve. It is said that the law of God is- you do not get what you desire but you get what your deserve. We are here in this material realm which is ultimately a place of suffering and here because that is what we deserve. Out of our free choice we made a decision that I wish to turn my back towards God and that choice of ours to turn away from God brought us here in the material realm."
The world is ultimately a place of suffering. It is being created like the prison house of God. It is for souls who have not chosen God but have chosen to go away from God in our consciousness. For eg; if we go to a hospital and say why there is so much a suffering here? Why are people so sick out here, why doesn't the manager do something? The manager will say this hospital is built with the purpose of housing sick and suffering people. Similarly when we look in this material world where materially conditioned souls resides, it is natural that we find suffering. Do not blame God for it. If you want better, you deserve better. How? By turning around towards God, by becoming God conscious. This world is not God's only abode there are many other Divine abodes. Once a soul becomes God conscious and surrenders to Him, God will take the soul out of this material world and transcend him to His other Divine abodes.
Swami Mukundananda who is a foremost disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharah quotes from The Bhagavad Gita and says that Lord Krishna told Arjun that having gone there once the soul never returns to this place of suffering again that is my (God's) Divine abode. Swamiji further says, "So if we want to see God's creation free from suffering, full of knowledge, full of love, full of bliss; He has His Divine abodes refered as Golok, Saket Lok, Vaikunth Lok, Shiv Lok, Devi Lok, Param Vyom Lok, etc."
Swamiji at the end gives a new twist to the suffering and says that the suffering has purpose. What is the purpose of the suffering? Watch the full answer.

Very true.

[@PratibhaPadhy]

Plz explain in hindi

[@premalshukla8815]

In a hospital we will always find sick people. In this material world, there is always suffering, sorrow, and misery. The purpose of this suffering is to teach us that we are on a wrong path - to correct ourselves, then we will find happiness. The duality of joy and sorrow, victory and defeat is to help us evolve into better human beings!

JAISREE RADHEY KRSNA Sree Maharaj ji k Sree charano mei Koti koti PRANAM Thanks so much

[@madhusudan1501]

Like Swamiji said, this is a very common question that occurs in the mind of majority of people. Swamiji gave a terrific answer to this question. His answer immediately sinks in my intellect and I develop faith in his answer. What was telling to me, was - we get, in life, what we deserve, not what we desire. We desire things, but we get results according to our actions. Plus, we must remember that this material world is meant to be a place of suffering, so that we can desire the love of God and eventually go to his abode.

[@sarahgreen9245]

How good of a professional we would be without passing through tests of increasing stringency to earn a degree; The world is perfect the way it is to help us evolve into the best we can be spiritually. Thanks so much for this wisdom!!!

[@007amogh]

"We don't get what we desire, we get what we deserve" God's creation is perfect and complete, the problem is in us. We've glaring defects which are to be removed Swamiji beautifully explains "If we wish to see abodes free from suffering and distress, and full of Bliss, we need to perfect our surrender to God and Guru" Christ said " I am the path and I am the way". Thus He stressed the importance of selfless surrender at the feet of Guru and God.

[@ashasrinivas137]

[@sarahgreen9245]

[@preetimalhotra627]

God gives us not what we want, rather what we deserve. The world is God's creation and is perfect therefore. Endeavour to put in your best effort to understand your position in the world and strive to rise above to a state of servitude. Surrender and serve God, and you'll find the world is perfect!

[@xxpgwfxx]

Thank you SwamiJi ! Radhe Radhe! Karma plays a roll in this, yes? Exhaustion of samskaras in this life is what we deserve not what we desire...we try and make as many righteous choices and turn to God in this life to purify the soul and diminish all filth and no tragedy should burden us later on although challenges will still be faced in order to grow, continued efforts to learn, patience and perseverance. Ommm🙏🏻 , Yourself, think and do as if you’d want your own child to be. Don’t live a life of ignorance and intellectual blasphemy. The only good that comes from that is that it teaches how not to be. Haha🙏🏻

[@neetaverma8667]

Very intellectually and beautifully explained

[@dylensoondram4146]

It leads us to the clarity of mind of how the material World and God's realisation function.'Swamiji is quite right when saying we get what we deserve and not what We desire'

[@williamburts5495]

Krishna says in the gita, " The living entities in this conditioned world are my eternal fragmental parts " being not of matter but of God we are naturally not going to be happy with our association with this world so your suffering is inevitable but when we develop our Krishna consciousness through the process of devotional service we come to the understanding of our true nature and we come to realize that we suffer because we are like a fish out of water while we are in material world but once we connect with God through devotion we come to realize what our true source is ( God )

[@sarahgreen9245]

This is indeed a burning question in all our minds amidst the Corona Virus Pandemic. We get what we deserve. Lets just focus on fixing ourselves first.

[@sangitadas8362]

Very captivating answers Swamiji. The law of God is"we don't get what we desire but what we deserve ".By turning around God, by becoming God-conscious, by surrendering to Him...........

[@hinapatel2466]

Beautifully explained all the doubts regarding all the bad happening in the world. very good examples given by Swami Mukundananda ji to enhance our faith in God and his creations.

[@myselfsuman29]

[@PrasenjitGhoshCse]

Dear Swamiji, Your explanations and examples in this video are very clear and easy to understand. It helped me. Thank you so much.

[@harrydeoprashad1234]

Thank you Swami ji for this enlightening discourse

[@mridulborah232]

Osm ! How beautifully explained.

[@smitamehtadenton]

Swamiji explains so beautifully that when we are unable to find solutions to life’s challenging situations, we feel overwhelmed and tend to blame God for our suffering. We wonder why God does not eliminate the suffering even though he has the power to do so. Swamiji says that God throws such circumstances in our way to teach us mental austerities and in the long run, such challenges are responsible for our growth and thus should be perceived as a blessing.

[@yaqpower]

This world is a beautiful place with beautiful people living in it. It is we that turned the world i into I AND MINE. we have broken the world into pieces of our desire. remove the I and MINE, appreciate and be thankful to God. You will realise how much god loves us. Dont be a pessimist and say this world is a place of suffering rather be an optimist and appreciate what God has given you and be Thankful.

[@umamistry1729]

Radhe Radhe

[@sanjaymathur9676]

I feel motivated as I am learning to listen to my inner voice Which I feel is the voice ofGod Always with me in faith and my breathing

[@jayeshpatel5003]

Very logically explained with examples by Swami Mukundanandaji that "If God is present, then Why God is not eliminating Bad from this world ??". A must listen Q/A session. He clarifies it further that "We do not get what we Desire but we get what we Deserved " Thanks for the enlightenment !

[@user-fp5br2kg3q]

जय श्री कृष्णा

[@caldmet70]

Beautifully explained 🙏 Hare Krishna 🙏

[@come2yogi]

How enlightening! Suffering is not simply to be looked upon as something negative that shouldn't be, but as an opportunity to learn that something is wrong and needs to be corrected.

[@soulworksorg]

This short video is an absolute must! It explained so logically why I am here. Not heard anyone else explain it with such logic and depth.

[@sarahgreen9245]

Agreed - the logic helps to pull us out of the limited thinking and then only we are able to absorb the higher level divine knowledge. The bridge of logic is unfortunately a necessary step - just hearing Divine knowledge won't do.

Hope this video inspired you. Radhey Radhey. JKYog Admin.
