take advantage of it as the fruits of their good deeds mature. Their good deeds are going to mature; that is inevitable.
The world is roasting in a fire pit. How much ‘roasting' does a person experience when suspicions arise?
Questioner: Too much.
Dadashri: Are they being roasted or being eaten alive?
Questioner: They are being eaten alive also.
Dadashri: So watch out! Do not have suspicions about any one. This world is not worth having suspicions at all. Suspicions occur when you look deep into something. Once suspicion enters, only when it leaves will there be any good for you. Now, it cannot leave on its own. You do not have the power to remove it. The Gnani Purush can remove it for you; no one else can do it for you. Those with lesser amount of intellect, will not be bothered by suspicion. In whom does suspicion occur? It is a problem of those with excess intellect. Before 'we' attaind Gnan, I used to have suspicions with every step I took.
Therefore there is less external suffering for those who do not have awareness and those who are very aware, due to the excess intellect, have a lot externally induced suffering (upadhi ). Does awareness end up being beneficial or harmful?
Questioner: It is very beneficial but one should get rid of it if it causes suspicion.
Dadashri: Get rid of the awareness? Do you want to get rid of awareness or suspicion?
Questioner: Only suspicion is to be got rid of.
Dadashri: Yes, you want to keep the awareness, do you not? 'We' have removed all roots of suspicion. Have you removed it from its main root or have you kept some of it?
