If we ourselves have done something wrong can we still see the resulting situation as Krishna’s plan?
And if we ourselves have done something wrong, can we still see the resulting situation as Krishna’s plan or is that more on us? Again the same answer, it’s achintya veda ved, yes and no. So it is that we can say that if you are driving on the road and the GPS tells us turn right and we turn left, then what does GPS do? It routes. It says, you didn’t obey me, get lost, stay lost.
No, it doesn’t do that. So like that, you know, GPS is God’s positioning system. So sometimes we may not listen to God’s positioning system.
So we may take a wrong turn, then we will go in the wrong direction. But just like GPS has got the territory mapped out, so Krishna has got the entire territory mapped out. So wherever we may have gone, whatever wrong turn we have taken, Krishna can reroute us from there.
So in that sense, we are still within Krishna’s plan. So is our situation Krishna’s plan? Well, our situation is because of our own actions. But that does not mean that our actions are so terrible that Krishna is going to say, you know, you did something so foolish, get lost, I don’t care for you anymore.
So Krishna has a plan to reroute us from there also.
