dattaswami Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 In fact, one day Baba appeared before Me and told Me to do the propagation of spiritual knowledge. I told Him that I do not deserve to take up such divine program. Then, Baba told Me that who else can be deserving other than Me to propagate this spiritual knowledge? I feared that Baba is testing Me regarding My resistance to ego. Generally, Datta tests like this by misleading the devotee. This itself is a clear proof that Baba is the incarnation of Datta. I simply obeyed His orders without further debate. In course of time, I found that the spiritual knowledge radiating from Me is unique and unimaginable. Then I realized that Baba Himself is speaking this knowledge through Me. In fact, some concepts were tremendous and were not covered by Baba in His discourses. The reason is that Baba wanted to give fame to Me, His servant, and hence, reserved those concepts. If I do not reveal this truth, it means that I am subjected to ego. Again, this is another test of Datta. The test of Datta is very very subtle and you will be easily caught by the clutches of ego and jealousy. Even angels failed in the tests of Datta. Even Hanuman was tested by Rama on several occasions and the test was so subtle that so far nobody could detect them unless God revealed them through Me. I feel always that I am the most undeserving devotee of God. But the fun is that some most deserving devotees became My disciples! Most of them call Me as the human incarnation of God due to this excellent spiritual knowledge. It is true that God is identified by the excellent spiritual knowledge only (Prajnanam Brahma…) since the miracles are also demonstrated by devils. I have to accept this new status of human incarnation based on the Vedic authority. But, at the same time, the soul component in Me should be very careful to resist ego. The praise of devotees is only the trial of Datta to subject Me to ego. When the soul component in Parashurama became egoistic, He was punished. But, Hanuman, another human incarnation, was never subjected to ego in any test. Rama and Hanuman were master and servant. But, both were human incarnations. With respect to the soul components, Rama is the master and Hanuman is the servant. But, with respect to the component of unimaginable God present in both, both are one and same. There is a verse which states that Hanuman told Rama like this, “I am your servant from the point of materialistic medium. I am your part from the point of energetic medium. Myself and Yourself are one and the same from the point of the unimaginable God existing in both of us”. Matter and energy constitute the medium, which is the creation. The unimaginable God is the creator.
