________________ Now we have control of the kite. Other people's kites can take a nosedive if it wants to, but our kite is in control and the control is in our hands. Why enter the horse race of these people? Each person to himself; I will take care of myself. And what are you going to do with this misguided intellect akkal anyway? Had you gone deeper into it, you would have sunk very deep for sure. It is good that you stayed away just like me. People come to me and tell me, 'you show us a lot of good things' and I tell them, 'no', and in the end I even tell them, 'I have forgotten everything. I cannot remember things anymore'. People like it when I tell them, “There is no substance and competence left in me.' Otherwise these people with substance and competence barkat will come to make deals with me. Is this even a place , the Gnani as the Self, where one can make deals? 'We' am higher than everyone! Deals are to be made with people of your own caliber. I am above everything and at the same time without any substance and competence. That is why 'we' say, 'What are you looking for in the one who has no substance?' Even to the robbers and thugs 'we' say, 'what is there to take from me; from the one without any substance and competence? Infact I don't even know how to give and so take whatever you want from my pocket, yourself!' When I was young, people used to scold me and tell me 'you do not have any substance and competence in you.' Now rather than have anyone else tell us, might as well tell ourselves that we have no substance. All the problems will go away if you certify yourself this way before anyone else does. People go around telling you, 'you have no substance in you,' and you go around trying to show that you are something, now how can this work? Instead, just certify your ownself as not having any substance and competence and the problem will be solved. The racecourse of life When our business was getting recognition as being number one in the area, a kind of power entered the mind as I started to think that I was being very clever , laden with akkal . It was not akkal wisdom, right
