It has been printed in the Aptavani books that 'we' are abuddha without any intellect. I tell people 'I am abuddha', so people the well wishers plead, 'do not say this, please do not say this!' Hey brother!, you say the same too. You too become an abuddha! If not, you will be beaten to no end. These people will 'break your legs.
Therefore, you should not talk about becoming laden with intellect akkal. That is why 'we have discovered the factory of 'abuddha'. See what 'we' discovered! And in the worldly life if we do not understand something, we can find an attorney and tell him, please take this money and do something about it. This man has been after me so find me a solution’.

Questioner: But what if the worlldy people eastablish us as a fool in all respect?
Dadashri: Yes, but that is precisely what you need to become. Your tremendous merit karmas have awakened! And don't interact with others as if you are at ease with them. You should pretend, only as a show that you want to enter the 'horserace and compete with them. But when you go there, go ahead and lose the race, so that they feel good about winning. I have done that so many times and told them, 'I am not very smart. I am clumsy.' That is the best solution. Otherwise, all thse are nothing but horse races, and racecourses. It these racecourse, with whom will we run? When we do not have any energy to walk, whom
