Questioner: What other things are included in this lalachagluttonous greed for pleasure?
Dadashri: Everything falls into it.
Questioner: Yes, but what types of greed is included in it?
Dadashri: Greed for all kinds of pleasure. Nothing is left out!
Questioner: Please, explain it to us with some examples.
Dadashri: Everyone understands this. Would anyone like to have any greed for the pain of getting beaten up? Would anyone like to have any gluttony for getting verbally abused? Would not everyone understand the nature of this gluttony? Let me enjoy this, let me enjoy that; let me enjoy this and that, that verily is the insatiable greed—the lalacha.
Questioner: But on what basis is such gluttony maintained and sustained?
Dadashri: On the basis of enjoying pleasure. Such a person wants to experience pleasure from whatever and whichever source available. There is no meaningful goal in life. Such a person does not care for public recognition and respect and is unaffected by defamation and insults. Just goes for pleasure in a shameless manner. There is no respect for any man made laws or discipline.
Questioner: So what is the cause of this kind of gluttony? How do these avarices originate?
