Dadashri: You should ask him: Why he is doing it? For what happiness is he doing it? How long can happiness that has been stolen from others, remain with him?
Questioner: What should one do if he still does not understand?
Dadashri: Then move away from there.
Questioner: So give into him?
Dadashri: It is the same as giving in. It is a way of moving away from the situation, is it not? So move away from him. If a snake comes after you, who has to run away from the snake, you or the snake? You have to run away. What does the snake have to lose? If a bull chases you, are you going to say, 'Why are you chasing me?' Are you going to stand there and state, 'I am a lawyer from Baroda'? Bulls will chase even a king!
Questioner: But you did not give in to people who did tragu and you told them that you have taken on many people like him without being affected. So how is that?
Dadashri: In some situations, 'we' have also given in, only because by doing so, that poor fellow will somehow get back on the right track. It is only with this intent that 'we' have done so.
That is shameless open blackmail: naagai
Lawyers too meet people who do tragu. Even lawyers will say, 'Let me run away from him', when they meet such people. What will the lawyer tell such a client? He will say, 'I will fight your case. You don't have to pay me.' So there are all kinds of people.
Questioner: Many times even the lawyer does a tragu. He will tell you at the last minute to give him money or he will not appear in court.
Dadashri: No, that is not a tragu; it is an issue of mutual selfish needs.
Questioner: Say the fees have been paid, but he does it to extort more money.
