Critical Appraisal of Asharamji Bapu Critical Appraisal of Asharamji Bapu | Page 91
Why Bapuji refuses to use
his powers on himself?
Some people argue that "If Asharamji Bapu is a great saint whom his followers
worship as God, then why can't he save himself from all these problems?"
History has ample proofs, that even great incarnations like Lord Rama, Lord Krishna
faced all sorts of problems as any normal human being would do. Lord Krishna left the
battle field while fighting against Jarasandhaa and established a new kingdom in
Dwarika. Like in case of Lord Rama- ‘Abduction of Mata Seeta’, ‘Hurdles in defeating
Ravana’ & Guru Arjandev was imprisoned and tortured by Mughal tyrants. Guru Teg
Bahadur was arrested and beheaded by Mughal tyrants. Guru Hargobind was
imprisoned in Agra jail. What should we interpret then? They were not the gods? They
were not efficient enough to use their powers? No! the fact is that, the great souls as
Lord Rama & the Self-Realized saints like Buddha, Kabir, Jesus, Mirabai, even
Asharamji Bapu too never use their powers for themselves. Instead they believe in
"Total Acceptance & Surrender" to the system of the Nature. The notable part
is, "100/100 times" such great souls only have "Won"! That's exactly what's happening
in the case of His Holiness Sant Shri Asharamji Bapu every time.
