Someone then posed the question to Baba as to why he did not destroy this illusion. Baba gave this explanation:

 

 

The sun that gives you light at present will burst after many crores [tens of millions] of years, but another sun will take its place. The Earth is getting cooler and will eventually turn into a moon; but another planet, just like the present Earth, will take its place.

 

 

What has been in the past will be in the future. The processes of evolution and involution will go on forever. Ignorance and creation go hand in hand.
