RIGHT BEHAVIOR
No man ever does any act of sin without
feeling the compulsion from within. The man carries in his nature desirable as
well as undesirable traits. Undesirable traits are generally filtered away by
the will of man. But sometimes the inner traits may over power the will resulting
in acts, which he himself may not feel comfortable of. In such situations he is
helpless. “What is the recourse in such destitutions?” asks Arjuna, the
representative of Man.
The
Lord answers, “the qualities of man relate to Nature. Nature’s qualities exist
in man. They are basically dynamism, inertia and poise. Poise gives desirable
traits. The other two give undesirable traits. Man should know that it is the
Nature’s qualities functioning in him as his qualities. He should try his best
to be with the traits of poise for which his discriminative will helps. But, at
the same time the other traits may work through man in spite of man’s will. In
all such situations it is better for him that he surrenders his inability unto
ME, the I AM, in him and seek pardon. Even gnostics sometimes are tricked by Nature and do acts of ignorance. In creation
no one is an exception to Nature’s illusion. Mistakes can happen. It is not
wise to brood over.
It is
wise to intensify his prayers and meditations to align with ME, the I AM, in
him. By doing so his will gets supplemented by My will, which would help him to
exercise his desired resistance to the traits undesirable. Intense and regular
prayers and meditations to align with ME would result in manifestation of the
quality of poise, which neutralizes the other two qualities to form into an
equilateral triangle of qualities.
Therefore,
it is necessary that man engage more and more with the I AM in him and in all
that surrounds him, than brooding over the mistakes that happen.
