To human beings, a divine tragedy ( sarvam dukham, sarvam kshanikam, sarvam shoonyam – Buddha ) and to the Lord , a Divine Comedy ( Dante ). Longfellow composed Divine Tragedy.
Buddha criticised the Lord !
How could it be that Brahm, Could create a world so miserable, And if all powerful, leave it so ! He is not good, and if not all powerful, He is not God !
Milton was an utter failure in his mission That I may assert Eternal Providence, And justify the ways of God to Man ! Milton had great anger against God. He was born blind and he suffered horribly. HIs anger against God made him project Satan as a hero and He, as a villain. His famous quote is It is better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven ! At best, you can be a waiter in Heaven if you obey him. If you oppose HIm, you can be King or Emperor ! Kamsa and Ravana were KIngs and they got Moksha first ! Ravana was not a fool. He did not touch Sita. He was a Brahma Jnani and Tapaswi . He knew that if you oppose HIm, you can be an emperor. So he opposed Him and death at the Hands of All Becomings and That which exceeds a,ll Becomings is Self Actualisation, Brahma Sayiujya or Moksha ! Satan spoke thus Eternity so spent in worship paid, To whom we hate. Millions of followers followed Satan. Lucifer, Beelzebub, Mammon were some of the great Generals pitted against the Almighty ! Declaring war against God, he warned, We may with more successful faith resolve, To wage by force or guile eternal war, Irreconcilable to our Grand Foe, Who now triumphs and in excess of joy, Sole reigning holds the tyranny of Heaven ! You will find crooks thriving and good people suffering in this world. Morality becomes irrelevant. The bat, hanging down, views this topsy turvy world ! Said Shaw, This earth of ours Is where fools flourish where good are persecuted where men and women torment each other, In the name of love where children are enslaved In the name of parental duty where the weak in body are poisoned and mutilated in the name of medical healing where the weak in character are imprisoned in the name of Justice It is clear to me that this world is Hell, And as the Indian revealed to me ( he was sent there to reveal to me ) that we are HERE to expiate for Crimes committed by us in a former exjstence !
