Baba is Karankaravanhar
“Karankaravnahar” is a mouthful word meaning “The one who does through others.”
In Brahma Kumaris it is believed that God “acts” through “instruments” that is typically a Brahma Kumaris adherent.
In Brahma Kumaris, the way to show a humble demeanor is by saying: “I am an instrument. Baba is the one doing.”
Nevertheless, in the Drama no one DOES. Actions manifest through human beings. This is an immediate consequence of believing in “predestination.” How are “you” going to DO things, if those things have been repeating through the eternal repetitive Drama?
That is a point in depth.
That is how Brahma Kumaris came up with another concept: “it is YOUR fortune.”
For most followers saying that God works through “you” or that your activities and consequences of them are “your” fortune; merely strengthens the idea of being separated from the Totality. That is how the “I” increases in size.
“God is working through me.” “I am only an instrument.”
Big size “I.”
From another perspective, there is no need of God as a separate entity to DO anything through someone else. “God” is part of the eternal repetitive Drama, correct?
Then, the Drama is behind everything. The Drama is the true “Karankaravanhar.”
But something so “impersonal” and “omnipresent” as the Drama cannot be worshiped, loved or romantically attached as “God” could be.
That is the point on choosing a “personal” God.
For those who like deep things, here is another one:
What is “Maya” then, if everything is predestined?
Every “illusion” that a person could be going through, it is part of the experience that this person needs to go through. “Everything in the Drama is beneficial.” Do we remember that teaching? That includes “Maya” as well.
The world of ideas and ideals will not take anyone to a change in consciousness. Neither to learn mouthful words or to add new concepts to a belief system.
As that “I” dissolves into the beauty of Life (Drama,) we liberate ourselves from our mental bondages.
How? Why?
Because the “I” disappears… little by little, like a magic trick.
For many that is a hard to grasp “concept.” However, it is not a “concept” once there is experience. It is only a state of consciousness.
In the meantime, “I” learn the “concept,” “I” repeat it. “I” use it to sound “knowledge-full. That is the way to DO it! … but not to live it.
For the common good.

According to my experience, BKs think of Baba as Karankarawanhar to be free from Ego, Baba made me do this, he used me for something good, I am just his instrument.
Om shanti 🙂
