Help by Remembering God Questioner: Our karma either sinks us or it keeps us afloat. Why should we think about God and pray to Him (prabhu smaran) during that time?
Dadashri: God is light, it is absolute Light. If you do not think about Him, you will not receive the light; that is the only problem. Otherwise, He does not interfere in anything else. If you want help in sinking or in swimming, then you should remember God (prabhu smaran). You are bound to receive His light if you remember Him. Your karma will improve through the light. But your remembrance of Him (prabhu smaran) should be done with a true heart. You should not have the wrong belief, like 'He is up there! There is no one up there. He that sits inside you is God Himself!
Karma Binds Even God! Questioner: All those who became God on this planet like Lord Rushabhdev, Lord Mahavir and Lord Neminath, weren't they also subject to the bondage of karma?
Dadashri: Everyone had come under the bondage of karma, which is why they were born from a mother's womb. There is not a single God who has not taken birth from the mother. Those who became a God, had attained knowledge of the Atma (Self) in their two or three previous lives, and lastly they became God. It is possible for those who have attained awareness of the Atma, to become a God in two to four more lives. If you want to go directly to moksha, it is possible, and if you want to work on the salvation for the world, then it is possible for you to become God. You can do one or the other.
