Interviewer: When you speak of the Supreme, when you speak of God, what do you mean? We have been given a traditional view of God as a sort of judgement figure up in the sky. Your view of God is very, very positive and very, very fulfilling.
Sri Chinmoy: God is everything. God is Justice; God is Compassion. But I feel that His Justice itself is also an act of Compassion. When God uses His Justice-Light to perfect our human nature, in no way is He becoming ruthless to us. Only He feels that His Justice is the only way He will be able to expedite our spiritual growth, our spiritual evolution. So Justice itself is a type of Compassion on God’s part. But we human beings separate God’s Justice from His Compassion. When God shows us Compassion, which He always does, we feel it strongly in the depths of our heart and we feel that is all we need. But again, there are times when God feels that His Justice-Light is also of paramount importance in order to expedite our spiritual journey.
