295 - Burden of the World (“Teachings of Queen Kunti”, 17)

When there is too much lawlessness and there are too many criminals, the state becomes overburdened and disturbed, and the state administrators are puzzled about what to do. Similarly, when the world is overrun by demons and atheists, they create a burden, and the demigods, the pious administrators of the universe, become perplexed. When the people of a state abide by the laws, administration is easy, but if people are criminals they overburden the state administrators. A similar situation sometimes upsets the balance of the cosmic affairs of this material world. Both the demons and the demigods always exist, but when the demoniac power increases, the world is overburdened. It is then that the demigods approach Lord Brahmā for assistance. ••• website for the episodes timeline, book introductions & links where to read: sravanamdiaries.com/teachings-of-queen-kunti/ ••• Instagram & Facebook @sravanamdiaries
