Impartiality of God
I envy no one, nor am I partial to anyone.
I am equal to all. But whoever renders service unto
Me in devotion is a friend, is in Me, and I am
also a friend to him. - BG 9:29 -
Although He has control over every minute detail of material
activities, He is sitting as if neutral. The example can be given of a
high-court judge sitting on his bench. By his order so many things
are happening—someone is being hanged, someone is being put
into jail, someone is awarded a huge amount of wealth—but still
he is neutral. He has nothing to do with all that gain and loss.
Similarly, the Lord is always neutral, although He has His hand in
every sphere of activity. - BG 9:9, purport -
