Srimate ramanujaya nama:

All jeevatmas are sub serviant of paramatma to establish this (amongst each one of us) emperuman with all kripai takes necessary steps. Generally our acharyas explain that emperuman ‘expects’ kainkaryam from us as we are shesha and feel ‘worried’ about it!

Being complete by himself will emperuman necessarily feel/creates any “empty/voidness” without a jeevatma’s kainkaryam? How does he experience the feeling of “worry(குறை)” in case of upbringing us!? In what perspective we should understand this swamy?
Pl pardon my ignorance and kindly enlight on these things.

Adiyen dasa🙏

Swamy,
Namaskaaram,
Bhagawan exhibits all feelings, like say, sorrowfulness when potential bhaktha is not up to the mark. He also exhibits anger, etc. The difference lies in the fact that our feelings are bound by / out of by karma, while that of Bhagawan is not at all so.
(Based on adiyen’s understanding after listening to some of Swamy’s talks).

Srimate Ramanujaye Namah,
Swamy i will try to share what i have heard.
Jeevatma’s natural eternal role is to be part of the Lord s kingdom and he has a natural service there.
This is similar to different parts of our body being together a d doing their individual services towards the person residing in the body. If a thumb is not well connected to the hand it will be painful for the thumb and it cannot do any service..so the person will ensure it heals faster.
In this gross analogy thumb does not have free will and the person is not complete without the thumb.
But in the actual case Lord is always complete irrespective of our service..but we cannot serve Him and be happy unless we serve Him. So the worry He experiences is for the our suffering and not for His need of service.

Typo error : second last line..we cannot serve Him and be happy unless we are connected to Him..but actually connection to Him is via our service to Him only..so the unintentional typo also has a meaning.

Typo error: the second last line should have been we cannot serve Him and be happy unless we are connected to Him..but connection to Him is also via service to Him.

Adiyen Ramanuja dasan!
Let’s look at this in this perspective… When a child is doing something wrong, won’t their parents worry about them not going the right way and doing the right things… The same can be said, as Paramathma is the parent for all jeevathma.. So when a jeevathma forgets he is a sheshi and stop or won’t do kainkaryam he shows his emotions the same way as a parent would do for his child it may either be anger, worry,happy etc..

Swami, Just one correction Adiyen would like to highlight.

 

 

“So when a jeevathma forgets he is a sheshi and stop or won’t do kainkaryam”.

Jeevatma is seshan and Paramatma or Bhagwan is Seshi

However, if devarir tried to mention Bhagwan then yes he is Seshi, but refrace the sentence.
