________________ 10 Whatever has happened is justice Whatever has happened is justice Dadashri : Yes, that way it will help him. The ideal way to handle the situation is to remain quiet. There is nothing better than that. The person, who wants liberation, will not utter a word. Questioner: Should we not offer any advice? Even then we should remain quiet? The world has never been unjust, not even for a second. It is always completely and absolutely just. Justice can fluctuate in the courts of law, one can be proven wrong, but the justice of nature is constant. Dadashri: They have already come prepared with their own accounts. He has even brought with him the account to be wise. I am telling you that if you want liberation, remain quiet. If you want to slip away in the night, and then you start yelling, you will be caught. WHAT IS GOD'S PLACE LIKE? God is neither justice nor injustice. His language is that no living being should suffer. Justice and injustice only exist in the human language. A thief believes in stealing as a way of life. A philanthropist believes in giving to charity. All this is the language of man, not God. Nothing like this exists with God. In God's world there is only this much: "One should not inflict pain on any living being. This is our only principle!" Nature is the overseer of justice and injustice. The justice and injustice of man is variable and not exact. It may free the guilty and punish the innocent. There is no escape from nature's justice. Nobody can influence it. Questioner : Is not the justice dispensed in the law courts also the justice of nature? Dadashri : It is all nature, but in the law courts, it seems to us as though the judge rules in a certain way. But we do not feel this way about nature do we? The conflicts that arise are because of our intellect (buddhi - this is the light of knowledge that flows through one's ego). Questioner : You have compared nature's justice to a computer, but a computer is mechanical. Dadashri : There is nothing else that comes close in comparison, which is why I have used this simile. A computer is simply used to exemplify the similarity between feeding in data and the sowing of seeds, which are one's inner intentions called bhaav. So in this lifetime, whatever bhaavs one has, these bhaavs create new karma for his coming life. That is. he is planting the seeds in this life, the result of which he will realize and experience in his next life. So whatever he experiences in this life is really the discharge or the results of his past karmas. This discharge is under the control of Vyavasthit. It is always dispensing justice. It only dispenses nature's justice. It is nature's justice even when a father kills his own son. Whatever accounts existed between the father and the son, are being completed. That debt is being paid off. There is nothing but repayment in this life. ONE'S OWN MISTAKES MAKES ONE SEE INJUSTICE Man sees the world as unjust because of his own faults. A pauper may win a million rupees in a lottery. That is
