Man Is A Warden, Not The Owner Of This World!

 Man is a warden, not the owner of this world! 

(मनुष्य बाग का माली है, मालिक नहीं)


 by Pandit Shriram Sharma Acharya (www.awgp.org


Bhagwan’s (God) most excellent artistic manifestation(कलाकृति) is Man. In His creation, God has invested intense thoughtfulness (मनोयोग) and high hopes. God cannot stand to see His creation (सृजन) , staying caught up in a pathetic condition for long. 

When someone entrusts their garden to a gardener, the gardener is actually supposed become a caretaker/warden, not its owner. The God has indeed entrusted man with a task of looking after the world as its warden, and making it even more beautiful, secure and a thriving place. However if man were to become careless, neglects his duties, God will have to intervene to fix the situation or even fire and replace the gardener. As is happening these days, God wouldn't allow man to wreck this world for long. After all, this world is God's dream creation (सुरम्य दुनिया).  

Parents usually let kids play on their own. However, when they happen to indulge in dangerous acts, like trying to eat a piece of glass or play with  fire, mother would intervene. She has  to stop them at once from doing so and may even ground them, so that they do not make the same stupid mistake again in the future. Similar interventions by the Divine are about to take place worldwide these days.
