me, 'Who will give me that energy? I told him, 'I will give you the energy. I am ready to give whatever energy you ask for. What can I do if you don't know how to ask? Then I, myself, have to teach everyone how to ask for the energy. Do I not have to teach that? Am I not teaching all this? Is this all not what I have taught; why don't you recite one of the Kalams?
Questioner: 'Dearest Dada Bhagwan! Give me the infinite inner energy not to hurt, cause someone to hurt, nor instigate anyone to hurt the ego of any living being, even to the slightest extent.'
encompass everything. Nothing has been left out. Read them daily. He told me he cannot do so. I told him, 'I am not telling you to do anything.' Why are you telling me, 'I cannot do them?' All you have to do is say, 'Dear Dada Bhagwan, give me the energy.' That is all I am telling you to do, I am telling you to ask. He then told me, 'I will enjoy doing that!' All these other people tell you to 'do things.
"Dearest Dada Bhagwan! Give me the infinite inner energy not to hurt, cause someone to hurt, nor instigate anyone to hurt the foundation of any religion, even to the slightest extent.'
'Give me the infinite inner energy not to hurt, even to the slightest extent, the foundation of any religion and to conduct my thoughts, speech and action in a manner that is accepted by all.'
(106) Religion means any three people waving around a staff (danduko); when there is a gathering of three, it is called gachha (sect). When three sadhus (ascetics) sit down together, and one of them puts a stake into the ground and then they sit and convene, that is considered as a gachha has begun.

'Gachha-maat ni jeh kalpana, tey nahi sadvyavahar.' 'Sectarian views and self-guided whims are not right worldly

Dadashri: That is the very suspicion that starts to get dispelled with this method of asking for energy. Now are you asking for energies? See' and 'Know' Just as You Would a Movie
Questioner: When we ask for energies in these Nine Kalams; when we say, 'Let me not do, nor cause others to do, nor instigate others into doing it,' does that mean we are asking for energy so that such things do not occur in the future, or is it to wash off all that we have done in the past?
Therefore, all this needs to be reconstructed. All new materials are coming in and the old walls and foundation need to be removed. Plaster made out of pieces of bricks and sand will be removed and replaced with the foundation of R.C.C. (reinforced concrete cement). The foundation of religion should be very strong.
That other man told me, 'It is not going to occur, so I am not going to do it.' I told him to ask for the energy. He asked
