The Self Realization
and achieves something contrary to Liberation or the Self. Not only he misguides himself but one who follows him is also misguided.
मुखथी ज्ञान कथे अने, अंतर् छूट्यो न मोह ।
ते पामर प्राणी करे, मात्र ज्ञानीनो' द्रोह ॥१३७॥ Mukhathi jnana kathe ane, antar chhutyo na moha, Te pamara prani kare, matra jnanino droha. 137 Lip-wise are some, pretending heart, They have no love lost for the seer, They aid senseless, play pitiable part, Have seer's show, delusion-dear. 137
Such a deluded Soul may talk of the knowledge of the Self but internally he keeps more attached to the body and worldly pleasures. He makes an outward show of being an enlightened Soul, though full of ignorance and infatuation. He is a confirmed hypocrite and he commits the sin of insulting and undervaluing the really enlightened souls. Because of these faults he is a sinning Soul. He envies the presence of an enlightened Guru and instead of respecting him he insults him, runs him down in public and rejoices at his exit. Inspite of such behaviour of the confirmed hypocrite, the enlightened Guru only shows compassion towards him, since he is compassionate to the core, while the hypocrite not only spoils his game of obtaining Liberation but he is denounced by the public for his undignified behaviour towards the enlightened Guru. Hypocrites are never the seekers of the Self.
