No Country No Name
Gajalakshmi
Paramasivam – 06 April 2015
Yesterday was Easter Sunday. I went to the
local markets at the Sydney suburb of Kingsford and even as I was buying a toy
to be added to the pool that supplies regularly to Sri Lanka to be shared with
my Community Grandchildren there – I noticed a book with the picture of my
Spiritual Guru – Sri Sathya Sai Baba. I
picked it up and noticed the name ‘No Country; No Name’/ Ooru Ledu, Peru
Ledu (Ooru = Country; Peru = Name). It was a very unusual place to find that
book. There were no other books in that stall. The owners of the stall said
they were of Greek origin and that they celebrated Easter next weekend. I took
it as the book ‘happening’ there - for me to have a special message on Easter
Sunday. I am now familiar with such Divine Guidance. This helps me not to ‘wait
around’ for human approval and acceptance. Back in the car – I learnt that the
book was written by fellow Australian Dr. Saravanapavan. The discovery of that
book on this day – kept me happy all day. It boosted my confidence to remain
close to Truth and raised my consciousness that Truth is Eternal.
Then this morning I felt moved by the
following report by SBS:
[On
Sunday, Jakarta's Catholic Archbishop, Ignatius Suharyo Hardjoatmodjo, told
reporters he was saddened by Indonesia's use of the death penalty, which he
described as a "failure of humanity".
Also
distressing for the archbishop was the severe treatment of Chan and Sukumaran
when they were moved last month from their Bali jail cells to Nusakambangan,
which involved a fighter jet escort.
"These
men were handcuffed, was it necessary to be guarded by Sukhoi?" he told
reporters after his Easter Sunday service.
"For
me that's not strictness, for me that's very saddening because it's obvious
that power wants to show itself and human dignity is not cherished."]
Jesus has confirmed that there is life
after death and that those who live in their Truth have the ability to
resurrect themselves. By celebrating Easter – we are confirming that we accept that
the dead do look after those who believe in them. This to me is how the Lord’s
system functions.
The end of Law is Truth. Where the
beginning of Law is also Truth – it is a perfect law. The law that prescribes
Death Sentence needs to be such a
perfect law if it is to uphold that birth in a particular place at a particular
time is not controlled by humans. Human law is like external medicine. The following
Message from Alexander the Great comes to mind: ‘.I want my physicians to carry my coffin because people should
realize that no doctor on this earth can really cure any body. They are
powerless and cannot save a person from the clutches of death. So let not
people take life for granted.’
The closer we are to birth and death – the weaker
the influence of external powers/laws. This is the reason why a leader needs to
be extremely cautious in applying the death sentence. Where there is common
faith – there is common ownership. Systems built around this nucleus depend on
relativity due to the degree of common faith felt. These relationships are the laws that lead to Oneness – the Truth
that we are all Children of God. When it comes to punishment by law therefore –
the punishment needs to be relative until we get to the worst offender in that
issue – known to that authority. Even at that stage the person with authority
needs to feel that s/he is punishing a part of her/himself as required by
Oneness Law of Humanity.
The Indonesian system may still go ahead
with the death penalty. But the return karma would be birth of Terrorists on
Indonesian soil where death is unjust and takes place due to political reasons – in this case due to Election
promises. Without those Election promises – such deaths when unjust would have
produced criminals. But once these acts are influenced by votes – they are
against the State itself and therefore are investments in Terrorism.
Indonesia has the opportunity to protect
itself from such negative karma and eliminate Death Penalty now that it has
been made an Election issue. The deepest partnership between Australia and Indonesia
would be through this Bali issue – where Indonesia is lacking in resources and
Truth to identify and punish the higher leaders. Hence the lower level
offenders who could be reformed are being punished for political purposes. Death
to be part of Natural Justice – needs to be reserved for the worst possible
offender within the reach of the highest authority of the Land. And even then
death sentence needs to be applied only
where the state has no means of keeping
that person behind bars. Any lesser thought process will return the excess to
the sender. Australians for our part have earned positive karma through the
Bali group – to prevent Terrorism being groomed in Australia. The damage to one
who grooms terrorists is far deeper than the damage to the victims. With death – every such
investment becomes a heritage beyond the direct control of current generation.
