A Person With Wisdom And A Person Without Wisdom

6.1    In the Samvat year 1876, on Mãgshar sud 9, [25th November, 1819], Shreeji Mahãrãj was sitting in Dãdã Khãchar’s darbãr in Gadhadã. He was dressed entirely in white clothes. A sabhã of munis, as well as haribhaktas from various places, had gathered before Him.

6.2    Then, Shreeji Mahãrãj said, “In satsang, a person who is wise, increasingly finds avgun within himself, and perceives gun in Bhagvãn and His bhakta. Moreover, when Bhagvãn and His sant utter harsh words of advice for his own benefit, he accepts them as beneficial, and is not hurt by them. Such a person steadily attains greatness in satsang.

6.3    “Conversely, a person who lacks wisdom, practices satsang and listens to talk about satsang, but continually perceives gun within himself. When Bhagvãn and His sant highlight his avgun and advise him, he misinterprets such advice due to his arrogance. He perceives avgun in the person advising him. Such a person steadily declines, and loses his reputation in satsang. Therefore, if a person abandons the pride of his own gun, and remains brave, and keeps faith in Bhagvãn and His sant, his ignorance is eradicated, and he attains greatness in satsang.”
