Terrorism, violence , natural calamities, pandemic diseases,pollution, global warming , recession and the list goes on , is world a safer place to live??
Swami says he would save his devotees from jaws of death . Saving from death ?? sounds like an oxymoron to me .
When death is inevetibale, how can i be saved ? . How can he save me from the jaws of death when he himself fell in its jaws?.
what is this "death" that is haunting us...
scientificaly ,when the heart stops functioning,the person is considered dead.
speaking spritually death can be explained as a phenomenon when the soul leaves the body and goes into another cycle of birth and death.
The haunting fact is that there is no escape from death.
Being a staunch devotee myself, it's a shame for me to accept the fact that I'm scared of death. Swami propagates the idea of dispassion and slavation but how can i be dispassionate when i desire to live ?.
I do accept the fact that there is no escape from death and as swami's devotee I should not be bothered about the soul leaving my body .
Yet I secretly feel i'm still not ready to face death.It's just that i have certain duties to complete , some desires to satisfy, some people to take care of and facing death now ,would be so incomplete. So,I'm not prepared to see my loved ones leave me or vice versa.
Thinking about all this has made me weak,just then i realise what swami had wanted to convey.
Obviously there is no escape from the jaws of death, every living being has to meet their end and so did sai . swami cannot eradicate death,
but would protect us from its jaws till the right has come for us to face it and would give us the maturity to accept it when it occurs.
In this turbulent world ,when every moment the hope of having a safe future seems to fade away ain't this a timely assurance.
A devotee who has completely surrendered to sai would never choose death over life and now having recieved this devine guidance, everybody should be inspired to live life to their fullest.
Jai sai nath
