So much wisdom. Pls post some more videos of your conversations with sirivennela Garu. We might not know the importance of these now but in hundred years, these will be cherished and preserved by generations.
In a book, The Art of the Possible authored by "Chembolu Sriramasastry" (Sirivennela gari thammudu garu). A question arose as to why God is always depicted in every religion without any exception that He is very kind to human beings. In his own creation there is abject poverty, strife, struggle, hunger, disease, suffering etc., how is it then HE is benevolent to humanity? Why at all should he create all these miseries in the world? Why cannot there be only mirth? Sirivennela garu replies “without going into the good and bad of God’s act of creation that the kindness of the Almighty is in making everybody’s feeling and emotion unique and uninfluenced by others’ circumstances, feelings and emotions! After all a man lives by his thoughts. Thought is the origin for any action! One’s mirth or misery is in one’s own mind and not in the outer circumstances! This is exactly the reason that a man survives many a suffering. Otherwise how can we justify a leper, who is disfigured and incapacitated totally, still having a strong love for life! What we see and feel about the other person is not important but what the person thinks and feels himself is the pivot; it could be intriguing to you and me; that does not matter at all for the person; thought alone drives him. This is the trick played by the God and that is why he is recognized by all as personification of kindness”
