Dadashri: Everything will help. These entire material here, all things of Dada, those are Dada's words; it is Dada's intent. So everything will help.
Questioner: But there is a difference between familiarity of live satsang (parichaya) and this, isn't it?
Dadashri: If you try to evaluate the difference then there is difference in everything. Therefore, we have to do whatever presents at whatever time. What can you do when Dada is not here? You should read Dada's book. Dada is verily there in book, isn't He? Otherwise, the moment you close your eyes, you will see Dada!
