Here Gurumaharaj continues to talk to the High School Teacher.
Gurumaharaj : Long articles or even books can be written interpreting or analysing those adjectives that describe the qualities of the Supreme Divinity. As we find 108 names of Lord Krishna in the Hindu scriptures, in Islamic religious texts as well Allah is addressed in 108 names. Al Koran was initially written in Arabic but translated into many languages later. These translations created many confusions. In Islamic scriptures many names given to Allah can be broken semantically. There are many names of Allah which has feminine gender. Can you make out what precisely I want to suggest? Allah is presented as One and Unique. But isn’t there a consideration of an alternative in those names of Allah?
Indian scriptures had been composed long before the Muslims came to live in India. The eighteenth Purana named Padma Purana, considered to be the latest, was written during the reign of Maha-Padmananda, the founder of Nanda dynasty. That means it was written 2400 years back. Hazrat Muhammad was born a little over 1400 years back. The Muslims came to India in 1191 or 1192 AD.
The migration of various primitive tribes of Middle East Asia to India led to many troubles. Migrations during the natural disasters like epidemic, earthquake and so on are accepted by Nature. Under such circumstances, living creatures or plants of one continent can survive in another continent after migration. But even in that cases it takes long for them to adapt themselves to new environment. If they can adapt, they survive or else they become extinct. Can you expect the kangaroos to survive in Sundarbans or the Royal Bengal Tigers to survive in Australia? Even after having numerous technological facilities an advanced species like humans find it quite difficult to adapt to new environment.
If one tries to impose his religion or political ideals to the inhabitants of the countries wherever he has migrated, there will be troubles. A German by birth, karl Marx wrote Marxist philosophy while living in London. Then Lenin implemented this philosophy in Russia. Mao Zedong established the same philosophy in his motherland, China. Then gradually Marxism spread to different countries of East Europe. The politicians of India also imported Marxist philosophy to India. But this ideology largely degenerated at their hands.
If a great man is born in any part of the world, he has the specific agenda to improve the condition of the people of that particular place. A great man takes birth in such place where his service is most urgently needed.
