it is our own making.. why blame it on other

it is our own making.. why blame it on others..

the matter is rather complicated. . the ways of the Karmic world..

In His exalted wisdom Lord has created so many things and His activities have evolved under a definite pattern.

And His creation, management or sustenance and destruction, maybe we can all it being done in His capacity as Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva,

have been going on with absolute precision for eons now.

The entire process has gathered great momentum.

Now even the Supreme one cannot stop the process without applying proper brakes and retro power, with no violent variation,

and if He does it suddenly, there will be chaos and also miserable destruction without justice.

Of course, if the Lord had deemed it fit not to create all these things and even when the advaitins and vedantins think that we are all feeling the existence only under the influence of Maya

and there is nothing real about it ,

still, maybe even the apparent sufferings could have been avoided if He had thought it proper..

But the greatness of our Lord is that he made the law and he incarnated himself as a follower of the law.. no immunity was claimed for Himself. Perhaps the story of the two upanishadic birds have to console us.

द्वा सुपर्णा सयुजाः सखायाः

समानं वृक्षम् परिषस्वजाते

तयोरन्न्यः पिप्पलं स्वाद्यत्य--

नश्नन्नन्योऽपिचाकशीति

dvā suparṇā sayujāḥ sakhāyāḥ

samānaṁ vṛkṣam pariṣasvajāte

tayorannyaḥ pippalaṁ svādyatya--

naśnannanyo'picākaśīti

बृहदारण्यकोपनिषत्

bṛhadāraṇyakopaniṣat

(this sloka can be found in may other treatises too)

two birds are perched in the branches of the same tree and there are fruits of various tastes filling the birds' abode.

One bird is detached.. it simply watches at the world in bliss. caring not for the fruits at all.

The second cuts its beak on every fruit and according to the taste of the fruit, sweet, sour, bitter etc the bird also has swings of mood.

Why do we try to taste the fruits and invite misery?

In Bible also we can find the story of Adam who tasted the forbidden fruit and became subject to pleasure and pain.

In fact there was a specific order by the God that such fruit should not be tasted.

It is said

सुखस्य दुःखस्य न कोपि दाता

परो ददातीति कुबुद्दिरेषा

अहं करोमीति वृथाभिमानः

स्वकर्मसूत्रग्रथितो हि लोकः

sukhasya duḥkhasya na kopi dātā

paro dadātīti kubuddireṣā

ahaṁ karomīti vṛthābhimānaḥ

svakarmasūtragrathito hi lokaḥ

Pleasure or pain are not provided to us by anyone else,

if we think someone else can make us comfortable of otherwise, our intellect is faulted,

and if we attribute to ourselves the doer-ship of things, it is arrogance...

the world is tied by the strong rope of Karma..

So, to sum up, we can make prayers and entreaties to Krishna if we want, but we are nowhere near sufficient enlightenment to challenge the rationale behind his acts of commission or omission.
