Om The Unique Sacrifice of Devatma
It is beyond the pen of man to describe the intensity of the suffering of devatma to portray is whether real or imaginative sympathy, the spirit that we want to represent. But the uniqueness of the devatma separated him from all human minds, and therefore the human mind is unable to reach this state of sympathy, even in imagination.
The great renowned evolutionist, Herbert Spencer writes:
"If by any system of culture an ideal human being could be produced, is it not doubtful whether he would be fit for the world as it now is? May we not on the contrary, suspect that his too keen sense of rectitude and too elevated standard of conduct, would make life intolerable or even impossible?"
In the evolutionary process of humanity, Devatma was endowed with something that humankind has never known before, because of the unique sublime compulsive love of comprehensive and all-round goodness and truth on the one hand, and the unique sublime hatred of comprehensive and all-round falsehood and evil on the other. As a consequence, Devatma attained unique sublime life. Devatma felt a unique higher relationship with all different kinds of entities in nature. He yearned for harmony among them and made any necessary sacrifice for them.
As a natural consequence, he was very deeply hurt and tormented whenever and wherever he saw or learned of any cruelty, injustice and disharmony, such as an inappropriate or painful action or harm done to any living or non-living being in nature by anyone.
He was also greatly agonized when he saw disorder or ugliness anywhere or when he found disrespect, undue or unfair behaviour on the part of someone, for example, someone who did not keep his fair promise or an act of ingratitude, someone who did not fulfil his duty, someone who was not punctual, an act of cruelty, etc.
