Glimpses of Sentiments
it is indeed pitiable. If you want to have bright future there is an urgent need for dispersal of this old family. Anyone who is afraid of any action, for him, it becomes absolutely essential to leave a cause. By leaving the garden, the fragrance also goes away. By leaving a heap of garbage, foul smell also gets vanished. By leaving sins, the unhappiness exits. By leaving laziness, detractions go away. By leaving evils, pain also gets released. Not only evils-sins- laziness should get released, but even soft feelings for such things also should get released. Then only, in real sense, you will be considered as one who has totally surrendered Even after coming upto my feet, there are many who have not surrendered to me. To be away from unhappiness, many, many people hold my feet. But to be free from evils, only very rare persons surrender to me. Those who hold my feet reach upto 'DEVLOK. Those who accept surrendering to me becomes free from evils, free from sins, free from unhappiness and virtually very quickly reach '
MOKSHA. Very short and clear like a 'deep', a lamp, the talk I am telling you. Several times you went on the path of righteousness. But you did not stick to the cause of the righteousness. You could get released from evil detractions but you just did not leave their causes; you did not leave your evil mental approach.
