Glimpses of Sentiments
virtuous direction ? As there is intellect, so will be the direction. Isn't it? if your continuous presence at the doors of my soul then I even approve of the hell. Even for a moment the heaven is with your absence then I will not like it, I will not approve it. If, perhaps, I go to Devlok' then also you make such arrangements that all well wisher friends are around me who inspire me to celebrate all the five 'KALYANAK'. Instead of remaining in embrace of the beauties of 'Devlok'if you give me rightous intellect to make me concentrate in listening to your sweet, inspiring speech then only I can accept 'Devlok'. Otherwise to lose my sense because of touches by beauties of 'Devlok' I am not ready to go to 'Deviok'. If you are near me, in my mind, the hell is not full of troubles but it is a place of pilgrimage. Otherwise even heaven is a place full of troubles. If every day I can get an opportunity of your 'PRADAKSHINA'; if I am getting an opportunity to make a shadow over your head by spreading two larger wings in 'SAMVASARAN'Tget favourable opportunity to listen your pious speech, then I am prepared to become a peacock. if I get an opportunity of filling pure water in my trunk and perform ceremonious sprinkling of water upon your idol and by holding in my trunki can ofter constantly a line of lotuses upon your idol, then I am also ready to take for me a form of an elephant. If by taking birth in a lap of 'SHRAVIKA MOTHER' and by listening your preachings, taking 'DIKSHA' only at your pious hands, and by removing actions if I can get freedom it is the best. But despite getting human life, I am not that fortunate and then,
