stove. I said to myself 'I will have to tighten the screw before this gets out of control.' So I went into the kitchen and started to throw cans of tea, sugar, oil, kerosene etc., down on the floor. It was as if a 400-volt current had touched it all. I made a mess of everything. The women who had instigated Hiraba came to see what was going on. I asked them, 'Who poisoned this Goddess of a woman?' they responded, 'You are a Gnani, you cannot become angry like this. Well only the anger of the Gnani Purush is worth seeing. I then told them, 'It is your instigation that has created this situation. Why did you feed her all this? What have we done to you?' They responded, 'We did not feed her anything. We simply told her a few things.' I asked, 'Why did you have to ruin her life?' They replied, 'How have we ruined her life?' I told them, 'She now has to live alone. Hiraba has to live separate in a new home in Bhadran. I will give her a monthly allowance.' They said, 'You cannot do that. How can you do that at this age?' I asked them, 'What good is a pot that has a crack in it? It will not hold water anymore, whatever you put in it will drain out. Can you keep a pot with a crack in it?' The neighbors all got worried when they realized that Hiraba would have to go live separately. Yes, there should not be any negative effect on religion-dharma.
That day tea, sugar and everything else was all mixed up. But that act was carried out without any attachment (vitaragbhav) or inner reaction. I told Chandrakantbhai, Bhanabhai, and others sitting there, go home and learn.' What was the outcome of this act the next day? The women started telling Hiraba 'Don't do anything to cause problems. Whoever wants to come and see Dada, let them. You do not get involved in it.' They started to tell her just the opposite because they got worried that they would be blamed if anything were to happen. They knew they had to be very careful. I had created that scene in order to ensure that they would never do what they did again. I have never had to repeat that act either. I had come up with that much remedy. They may still remember the incident. Hiraba too was swept up in the rut. She would have never behaved that way on her own accord, it was other women who led her to believe that if she acted that way, the girls would leave and never return.
The presence of a Gnani is very rare in this world. Would the poor girls not come to do the darshan? They come here because they find no elsewhere. At least let them do darshan peacefully. Those women even told Hiraba that dada would marry one of these girls. They also coached Hiraba that these young girls would take Dada away from her. Arey! How can that happen? I am an old man, what kind of nonsense were they teaching Hiraba?
