Worship
is an age-old psychological treatment to pacify perturbed mind of the
believer. All other things are immaterial. Dattprasad told Naroo
another example of a modern guide and Guru who was explaining the
meanings of the Sanskrit hymns to his followers. When they learned it
he lost all of them. That Guru had to stop his shop of spiritual
teachings. Why? Because, the followers never wanted to know what the
hymns say. They just wanted to get relief from their worries. So this
in a way pacified Naroo.
In
this way days were passing and one day Duttprasad who was getting old
and had to stop his activities of priest ship had called Naroo and
told him that Naroo’s sons who were by now well trained in the
profession of the family to take over completely.
Finally
that day came when Duttprasad lay on deathbed called Naroo and told
him, “Naroo, I am getting very old and I know for sure that I may
not live long. I tell you the answer to your one question about how
one’s good work or bad work effects the after death life.”
Duttprasad
continued, “According to our ancient wisdom our good or bad deeds
have nothing to do with our after death life however; they do matter
in our next birth. What matters is our thoughts at the time of our
death”. Naroo was intently listening to his learned father.
“It
is believed that at the time of death a few moments earlier, a
complete cinema of the life passes before one’s eyes and he or she
sees all the important things those have happened in that life, as if
they had happened just a few moments before. In a way it so happens
that we relive our life as a program designed in advance, a sort of
post view”.
Dattprasad
suggested to Naroo, “we always see some things in our dreams. These
things have bearing with happenings in our life; our dreams we try to
interpret in our way but very often we fail to understand them. These
dreams are actually recorded moments in our life and they come up
when we are asleep”.
“How
this affects after death life,” asks Naroo impatiently. Dattprasad
relaxes for a while and then continues, “During that cinema we
relive many things those we had lived during those moments when they
had actually happened. For example, moments of insult, honor,
cheating and moments of fear all pass before our mental eyes; giving
us reaction of either hatred or envy for moments of insult and
pleasure or satisfaction for moments of honor and of fear and
anxiety. Similarly, many times we treat other people wrongly; that
moment may give a feeling of repentance or may be of devilish
happiness depending upon the spiritual status the dying person has
achieved. Some die with intense reaction of hatred for some body who
has done injustice or who was always superseding in life. Such
person’s ghost is in constantly restless condition and you know
Naroo, black magicians try to control them and then use them for
their fiendish work.
