¹To be liberated from the karmic bondages of the five vices is true freedom.

²Om shanti.

³We know that the One in whose remembrance we are sitting is the All-Powerful One.

⁴There must have been some activity of His power at a certain time.

⁵That is not the power of His being inco1poreal.

⁶There must have been activity through His power in the corporeal form and this is why it has been praised.

⁷Whilst being incorporeal He has been praised here in the corporeal form, so He must have done something special.

⁸But you understand that to give money, food or happiness is not the act of that Karankaravanhar. ⁹This is not His power.

¹⁰If it were like that He would give happiness to everyone.

¹¹Why are some happy and some unhappy?

¹²Is it God's doing that people are not content even though they have happiness?

¹³Now the lock on our intellect has opened and so we know what God's power is.

¹⁴The happiness that God has given is totally different. ¹⁵This is why there is praise of God's act.

¹⁶But God's act cannot be proved through .this life.

¹⁷God has not created this life.

¹⁸That was a totally different life and it has been praised, That was a world of elevated happiness.

¹⁹People do not know this.

²⁰He is called the Bestower of all happiness and the All-powerful One since He comes and grants both mukti and jeevanmukti.

²¹He sends all those of the other religions into mukti.

²²All those who become worthy are given the fortune of the kingdom and then He Himself goes away.

²³It is souls that have to experience the reward.

²⁴We have received that knowledge and happiness and this is why we sing His praise and have yoga with Him.

²⁵God says: There isn't even a trace of My remembrance in this world.

²⁶Maya has totally locked your intellect.

²⁷But God the Father never gives any sorrow to anyone.

²⁸He is called the Bestower of Happiness, not the Bestower of Sorrow.

²⁹He has given happiness and this is why there are so many memorials and why He is praised.

³⁰Maya has now made you impure which is why human being-; are experiencing sorrow.

³¹People speak of freedom, but they cannot have freedom until they are liberated from the bondage of the five vices.

³²Impure souls can neither experience any happiness nor can they rule the kingdom of the world.

³³This is why God's plan is something different.

³⁴He gives the kingdom neither to the Kauravs nor to the Yadavs, but He gives it to the pure deities whom He Himself is creating at this time.

³⁵Each one has to become that through his own effort.

³⁶Lakshmi and Narayan have received the complete reward through their own full effort. ³⁷This is why it is sung that they are the hero and heroine.

³⁸Brahma is also called the hero because he has carried out an elevated task.

³⁹The greatness of human beings is to become deities, but they cannot become God.

⁴⁰So you have to make effort.

⁴¹You must not stand still whilst relying on the drama or your fortune.

⁴²Though we know that this is the predestined drama, we have to become something through our own effort.

⁴³When you know this, you are not able to stop making your effort.

⁴⁴Whether you know something or not you have to engage yourself in making effort.

⁴⁵Arjuna was also told: Everyone is already dead; you just have to kill them for the name's sake.

⁴⁶So he was inspired to make that effort.

⁴⁷Nothing happens by being stubborn or by saying that you will not make any effort.

⁴⁸Otherwise, you will end up wringing your own hands.

⁴⁹You cannot be certain how long you will live.

⁵⁰You must not delay anything auspicious.

⁵¹Just as you fulfil your lokik responsibilities, so also you also have to fulfll this responsibility.

⁵²You must not be careless.

⁵³Otherwise you will have to experience punislunent with a shoe from Dharamraj and you will not even receive anything.

⁵⁴If you are liberated from punislunent you can then sit and eat comfortably.

⁵⁵Some say: Achcha, we will settle everything with Dharamraj at the end.

⁵⁶So understand Him now.

⁵⁷Liberate yourself from your karma.

⁵⁸Look how people cry about their own wrong karma.

⁵⁹Some even commit suicide because of it.

⁶⁰If they are not able to free themselves from sorrow they experience sorrow in their next birth or the one after that.

⁶¹They say: We will understand and settle everything with God at the end.

⁶²You must understand this now.

⁶³Think about it and do not make any mistakes.

⁶⁴Those who make mistakes experience sorrow. ⁶⁵They are not able to be liberated.

⁶⁶This is why you are warned to be liberated from the karmic bondages of sorrow, otherwise you will have to repent.

⁶⁷Achcha.
