Dadashri: No, that is not considered kapat. That poor man is likely to get fooled. He has a habit of 'tasting sweetness' and that is why he gets fooled.
Questioner: It is very difficult to remain aware jagrut when one is enjoying worldly pleasures, no?
Dadashri: Awareness will not stay at that time. When someone greets you with respect and says, 'welcome, welcome Chandulal' that is the inner effect of the sound of the word! And if someone tells you, 'you do not have any sense' then what effect will such words have on you?
Questioner: This Akram Vignan is such that at least once it will not let the effect of those words touch the Self-the one who has attained Gnan-within. There arises within the awareness as to whom the words, 'senseless' are being addressed to.
Dadashri: Yes. First such awareness arises. Once this awareness arises then nothing will affect You. The one who becomes aware as to who is being addressed in, 'welcome, welcome,' remains unaffected. (This respectful greeting is being given to Chandulal, the relative self and this is the awareness-jagruti) You have to extract and attain such subtle. understanding.
Questioner: This is very necessary. The breakdown in the continuity of this awareness happens, and is that the reason that all such faults take over the control in the meantime?
Dadashri: All these faults cause the intervening breakdown. That is why the Lord has said, 'keval neej swabhavnu akhhand varte Gnan-the uninterrupted bliss of the Self is being experienced.' But it does get interrupted. Therefore quit the habit of tasting sweetness (respect) and it is unlikely that anyone will go out of his way to serve you anything bitter (insult). This is because your worldly interaction now is such that no one will insult you. And if it does happen then know that as your vyavasthitscientific circumstantial evidence. The fault is of the sufferer.
Questioner: Awareness is more evident during evident during bitternessunpleasant life effects.
