For the people on this earth, the present human incarnation

For the people on this earth, the present human incarnation is always the concerned authority.

For the people on this earth, the present human incarnation is always the concerned authority. There is no difference between the energetic form of God and the alive human incarnation as far as the inner God is concerned. Both are equally powerful, but you should note the relevance of your concerned authority. You may have a problem of electricity in your house. Regarding it, you can go up to the Chief Minister of your State. The Chief Minister of other state will not solve your problem since he is not concerned to your state. When Lord Shiva fought with Lord Krishna, Lord Shiva was defeated. What is the meaning of this? It only means that the concerned authority of the earth in that time was only Lord Krishna. Except this point, there is nothing because the same God exists in both Lord Shiva and Lord Krishna.

It is important to note the authority of the presently existing alive Chief Minister of your state. If you approach the statue or the photo of the past Chief Minister, who is not alive, there is no practical use. The present Chief Minister is homogeneous with all the past Chief Ministers and is in no way is different from them. If you neglect the alive Chief Minister and cry before the photos of the past Chief Ministers, what is the use?

You can respect the photos and statues of those Chief Ministers and draw the inspiration for which the existing Chief Minister also is a supporter. He also respects the photos of the past Chief Ministers and also the Chief Ministers of other states. Similarly, you can have all the theoretical devotion like discussions; songs etc., as far as the statues or photos are concerned. But the practical devotion like serving through sacrifice of work and fruit of work should be done only to the present human incarnation and His team.

Your preacher is more important for your practical devotion than the photo or statue of the past incarnation. It is better to serve the alive peon of the department than serving the photo of a past Chief Minister. The life is the basic essential requirement for the practical devotion. It is better to serve even a beggar in the name of God than serving the photo of the past incarnations and the energetic forms of God, which are meant for the development of the theoretical devotion only.

The undeserving people are receiving your practical service hiding behind the photos and statues. They are like the present politicians who are exploiting the public to receive the revenue paid by the public by hiding behind the photos of the previous great leaders. You must see the deserving candidate asking for your vote who enjoys the tax paid by you. You should not vote the undeserving candidate by seeing the photos of the past great leaders. Your revenue should go to the alive candidate who is deserving. Same concept applies in the spiritual service also.
