the past and, then when you go out again wearing expensive jewelry then the suspicion will arise that what if I get robbed today? Now what does the justice of nature say? If you going to encounter such a robber as a consequence of your past life karma, then you have no choice but meet him, so why become suspicious needlessly?
Questioner: Should one not take precautions when this suspicion
arises?
Dadashri: Everything becomes ruined because of taking precautions. It is fine for someone who has not taken Gnan If you want liberation then 'do' everything for reaching that goal exactly. If you want to remain in the worldly life then make the worldly adjustments (precaution). If you want to harbor suspicions, then remain in the worldly life. If you place your feet on both sides, it is meaningless.
Questioner: But if there are signs of danger, I may not let suspicion arise but should I not take the necessary precaution against it?
Dadashri: You cannot take precautions. You do not have the energy to take any precautions. What is the point of trying to adopt the energy that you do not have?
Questioner: Do we not have the energy to take precautions?
Dadashri: Absolutely none! There is no point in believing in the energy which You do not possess. There is no energy to take precaution or to do anything and the precautions are taken by 'Chandulal' anyway. You are meddling unnecessarily. Some other energy is doing everything and You take the credit for it and that is why 'his' (Chandulal's) goes bad.
Questioner: So if 'Chandulal' takes precautions, is there not a
problem?
Dadashri: He will do so for sure. He will always take precautions. A man may be walking unattentively but if he sees a snake, he will immediately jump aside. What is the energy that makes him jump? Who makes him jump? Do people not jump like that? There is so much natural response (sahajikata) in this body. This 'Chandulal' has so much naturalness, that he will jump the moment he sees something.
