Description

Acharya Prashant addresses the human tendency to project personal motives and limitations onto the divine. He explains that questions regarding why, when, or for whom Shri Krishna acts are rooted in the language of duality and human logic. Humans often assume that if they act with a purpose or motive, the supreme power must also have one. This leads to the creation of a god in man's own image, attributing human emotions and desires to the divine. The speaker emphasizes that while human actions are driven by self-interest and cause-and-effect, the actions of Shri Krishna are a 'Leela'—a spontaneous play without any underlying motive or bondage. He further explains that humans seek to find a motive in the divine because having a reason makes someone vulnerable to control. If the divine had a desire or a 'weakness,' the egoistic human mind would try to manipulate or enslave it. Acharya Prashant highlights that Shri Krishna appears to have qualities and perform actions, such as serving as a charioteer or tending to horses, but remains essentially attribute-less and unattached. He warns that trying to understand the supreme through imagination or stories is self-defeating. Instead of questioning the 'why' of the divine, one should remain silent and surrendered. True inquiry should be directed toward the world, the ego, and consciousness, while the truth should be approached with total silence and humility.
