Questioner: Dada one needs to become free from this.
Dadashri: It is a very dangerous trap! Yet when the unfolding circumstances call for it, it is our duty to help the people. However, that must unfold as a circumstance udaya. There is nothing to gain in becoming a guru; it must come as result of unfolding circumstances. The circumstances will unfold on its own. It is a different matter if you are forced to sit on the seat you do not want to. Therefore you should not have any expectation for it.
Is anyone likely fail if he were to grade his own paper?
Questioner: No one will.
Dadashri: If a person examines his own paper, gives himself a grade and fails himself, then I would consider his action as a judgement, but that does not happen, does it?
Questioner: And here one even struggles to appear humble on the
outside.
Dadashri: That is why I call it killing the self atmaghat! It will lead to one's suicide. All one has to 'see' whether people are attracted. Are they? No, they are not. Then means a great amount of the disease, 'I know' exists within. Attraction verily is purity! As purity begins, attraction will happen.
Questioner: No, Dadaji, people do get attracted. They get attracted for a little while, do they not?
Dadashri: No. Not at all! Not even a bit! No one will stay. The bulb will blow out on the first day. People will go for it for a couple of days but not for long. This here is a Gnani Purush and that is why one is able to know the faults and mistakes dosh. Otherwise, how can the owner know their existence? The ship starts sailing towards the south! It heads south because the compass is malfunctioning. That compass will show the south as being the north. Otherwise, the compass will always point towards the north; that is its nature. But if the compass malfunctions, what can one one do? Furthermore one does not know how to look for the Northern Star.
