🌻 Though He Suffers He Forgives  - 2 🌻

All  sanskaras are like bindings of cloth, but unnatural sanskaras stick to one like thorns. And  as one is cloaked with thorns, when one comes across someone else cloaked with thorns,  one inevitably gets entangled with him. 

Because of this entanglement of thorns meshed  with thorns, one's progress toward the path of Truth is seriously hindered. In other words,  those with unnatural sanskaras generally end up getting entangled in a heap of thorns  with those who also have similar unnatural sanskaras.  

The Avatar works to forgive, and his forgiveness is to show the way to the path of  Truth for each one. He has to remove the heap of thorns produced by each one's  unnatural actions with others. 

To remove the heap of thorns is his work, and while he works, he suffers, because these thorns are enmeshed in each one's  

consciousness. Since the thorns stick to one and the Avatar has to remove them, there is  suffering, and this suffering causes yet another obstruction—resentment. 

 

For example, Meher Baba has to rid a hypocritical guru or false saint of his  hypocrisy. 

The hypocrite poses himself to be a real saint and spiritual teacher, and so he  deceives others. He enjoys this way of life and he is unwilling to give it up at any cost. 

 

To change this false guru is a difficult task, because the false guru loves this way of life,  

and he wants to continue appealing to his followers. 

Any act of changing him is met with  resentment, and this resentment, which obstructs the work of the Avatar, contributes to   the suffering of the Avatar while he works to change that hypocrite.
