Sometimes, forgetting this sacred aspect of the , he spends a lot of time in the pursuit of matters relating to external objects. The former requires inner vision and the latter requires external vision. The sacredness of consists in harmonising one’s inner vision with his external vision and making him see the unity of these two aspects. Because of their wealth and physical strength, the were blind to the might of . was very proud of the fact that he was born in a sect higher than the sect in which was born; and being blinded with such ideas, he could not recognise the greatness of . The , having lost their wisdom in their scholarship and because of the unreal ideas they created in their own minds, were not able to recognise ’s divine personality. The pride that comes from their birth, the ego which comes from their wealth and the arrogance which comes from their education also rendered several other people incapable of recognising the greatness of . God’s actions can be described as . No one can determine the nature of such . It is also not possible to understand them. Only after the event has taken place, can one realise its significance. Because such are generally covered by , man is not able to recognise the divinity that is responsible for them. Because of this alone, man again is not able to recognise the divine connection between man and man. All attachment arises because of .

At such times and such places, depending on the circumstances, the behaviour of will change. is something similar to an electric current. We can use this current for running a fan or lighting a bulb. It can be used for running several machines and useful devices. Because the electric current is so useful, if you catch hold of it to show your gratitude, you will be killed immediately. Thus, current does good and also does harm. In this world, we cannot find a place where there is no . said that all this world is really transient and that there is nothing of permanent value in it. In that context, we should realise that all that we see around us is in reality the leela of the Lord. Whatever we may do, we must also regard it as a leela of the Lord and experience the truth in this way.
