________________ Confession (Aalochana) is to remove the corpse, the dead body from our inner soul and disclose it to our Guru. 'Jagat ne je matra ful batave chhe, ena jevo FOOL jagat ma bijo koi hoto nathi.' There is no bigger fool than him, in this world, who only displays flowers of false appreciation to the world. But one, who reveals his inner true self to his Guru, confesses his mistakes and admits to his Guru, "Oh! Guru Bhagvant ! I have done this... I am at fault... I have behaved in this manner... I became angry and upset with him...!" When an individual discloses his errors to his Guru, not only tears trickle down his eyes, but his inner self also weeps. When the heart sheds tears, the inner self gets cleansed and becomes pure. 'Ankhon thi radvawala no paar hoto nathi, pan antarthi je rade chhe eni ne parmatma ni vachche antar rahetu nathi.' There are many who cry, but only the one who weeps and repents from the bottom of the heart moves closer to Parmatma. The heart becomes clean and pure only when it is cleansed with tears of confession. Jyan preet tyan pardo nahin...jya pardo tyan nahin preet! Preet tyan pardo rahe, ae preet nahin viparit kahevai chhe!' Where there is love, there is nothing to hide, where =R 87
