Truth Always Wins- 5 - Baba Faqir Chand

Chapter 5

While looking at the miserable plight of mankind, I had decided to speak on Satyamev Jayate (Truth Always Wins) or on those principles by following which we can lead a peaceful and happy life in the present circumstances. Grief-stricken people come to me. Couples with strained relations and complaints against each other come for my blessings. Some are widows and others are widowers. Childless people want children. Those who have issues are troubled by them. Many are destitute. Here the wicked are rewarded whereas the noble and virtuous are punished. Under such circumstances, what is that principle which can bring peace to the suffering of humanity? Many great saints have been in this world. They too have suffered in their old age, though they have spent their life in Sumiran, Dhyan or Bhajan. A child of one year suffers from some disease, becomes an invalid and suffers throughout his life. Why? What is his sin? One has to accept that it is all the result of one's own deeds. If you do not believe in the philosophy of Karma (deeds) then you have to agree that the creator of this world is relentless. Let us see the cause of these sorrows and agonies. There is only one solution to our sorrows, and that is to remain grateful to Him and live with patience. Live at His will. Do not sit idle. Make your efforts. But when your efforts are exhausted, you cannot do anything. You will have to surrender to His will.
 

Being a truthful man I think what help I can render to anybody? Today a doctor told me, "Baba Ji, I was a heart patient, but with your Parsad (Grace) I am now quite well." Many sterile women say that they have been blessed with children with my Parsad. But my own daughter who has been married for the last 18 years, and whom I have given Parsad many a time, still remains issueless. Now decide, what is the truth? Had there been any miraculous power in my Parsad, my daughter too would have been blessed with a child. Whatever you get, it si either your fault or your fate or it is your deed or belief. This is Satyamev Jayate. Do your duty sincerely. If you face any trouble then have patience. The reaction of certain actions has to be reaped. Your prayers and salutations would not save you from the result of their reaction. You may worship god and serve the Guru for years, you cannot avoid death. Saints resign to His will because they have this realization that whatever happens is either the result of our deeds or His will. I have sympathies for the afflicted. If a person has achievements to his credit it is due to his own faith. But he, in his ignorance, gives all the credit to me and my Parsad. I am none to give anything. It is either your own actions or your own faith. So Satyamev Jayate is to live with patience anbd contentment. You must do your best. But if you fail to acheive this aim, do no weep or curse yourself. Live at His will.

 
PEACE TO ALL
