The greatest limitation of Sri Sri Thakur was his appearance. It is difficult to measure him and very hard to get to know his true identity. It is true that the human form, by which he presented himself for a brief time, made it easy for us to comprehend him. But that human form itself made him so natural that his super natural ability became a subject of deep mystery. His finite form every now and then tried to defy and conceal his infinite power. It was a real puzzle to see the all powerful God, the Creator of the Universe, is sitting under a shade in the premise of the Thakur Bungalow at an underdeveloped tribal locality that was Deoghar in Santhal Pargana District in Bihar. He had no artificial surrounding, no security cordon and no miraculous performance. There was nothing grand about his setting, except of course the charming and lovable personality that was never missed. How can my mind experience something, which requires me to overcome my limitation?

Sri Sri Thakur had another handicap, which was that he could not publicize himself. He never proclaimed in so many words that he was the God incarnate, so, you foolish folk, better listen to him otherwise perish. He had given enough hints of that. To some devotees, he had displayed his cosmic image, as per the requirement of that particular devotee. At one point he said,  like light does not proclaim that I am light, like air does not announce that I am air, similarly if God hood has revealed in anybody, he does not say so in so many words. He has to be seen, to be felt and more so to be loved and be surrendered at .

Sri Sri Thakur had another limitation, which was that he could not reject any body. He could not discriminate between good man and not so good man. All were his children. He once was heard to lament,  I am a foolish father of fallen sons .

Sri Sri Thakur could not threaten any body. He did not try to apply his force on any body. He was just trying to pursue, cajole, guide and implicitly take care. He respected individual dignity and sovereignty, which he as the Creator, had given to us.

Perhaps the last thing that Sri Sri Thakur did not do was that he could never take care of himself. He did not run away from the torture and suffering heaped upon him by innumerable fellows like us. He was subjected to all kinds of humiliation, pain, and whatnot. People misunderstood him, defamed him and implicated him in legal proceedings. His own near and dear defied his wish and did things against his will. His own disciples tried to impersonate him and spread slender against him. He was physically assaulted. Assassination was attempted on him. It was sad commentary as alleged by some that towards the last part of his life, he was kept in apparent seclusion, in solitary confinement, against his will. Sri Sri Thakur at times was wailing of pain. He said once,  Jesus is being crucified even today . The humanity as a whole neglected him. He did not do any thing for his own self, for his life, for his health and for his image.

In fact, as I feel, all these are limitations of his time and bore misfortune for the human race.
