## Bala-Dristi: Hearing from the mouth of the Sadguru and the Sat-Shastra (215)
“This Shastra is the elucidator of the existence of the Atma and others; there is no reliance on a direct Sadguru, only on a worthy one. Or, what the Sadguru has said, if it is ignored;
then one should constantly contemplate it and abandon any other opinion.” - Shri Atma-Siddhi
“Is it better to receive direct instruction from an ordinary man, or indirect instruction through the scriptures from an extraordinary man? This question has only one answer. Considering how extraordinary men can perfectly convey their unique Atma in scriptures, it is clear that the second option is superior.” - Prof. Anandshankar Dhruv.
Therefore, this Dristi-wala Mumukhu Yogi Purusha, experiencing an intense desire for Tattva-Shravan, strives to gain access to Shri Sadguru and wishes to hear the Tattva from their mouth. And,
if access to them is not possible, he wishes to hear from the Sat-Shastra. What does he wish to hear? He desires to find resolution to the Tattva-questions churning in his fatherly heart. He wishes to hear the form of peace,
he is eager to hear what the Atma-Tattva is like. What kind of opposition has this being faced before? He wishes to find resolution to the doubt that his Meha-adi Deshas are not yet resolved. He wishes to imagine Bhagwan present, standing before him, and despite all these reasons,
he wishes to ask Bhagwan directly why this being is still not liberated. He becomes one-pointed in his desire to hear the answer. As in, “O Shanti Jin! One request from me, listen, O King of the Three Worlds!
What is the form of peace? How is it known? How is the mind tested?....O Guru of the world, what is the Atma-Tattva? Tell me this thought; without knowing the Atma-Tattva, one cannot attain pure, concentrated mind... Muni-Suvat.” - Shri Anandghanaji
“What opposition did this being face before? What did this red being do? The Meha is not ceasing, the light of the Agam is seen as red.” - Shri Devchandraji
“Because of the reason, the Tattva is with it, it is not a new acquisition... The light of Shri Jinraj shines upon me, who is its cause... Ji.” - Shri Devchandraji
This is the meaning.
