________________ the answers to all this from within, then know that the mistake has been fractured. Investigate what happened on the first day initially, what was the basis of becoming emotional, on what basis did the bliss of the Selfnirakudata leave? All this can be known. Questioner: In the worldly interactions that are happening, there is no persistent preference of taking one way or the other. In what is unfolding in daily life there is no insistence that we should take this way or that. Otherwise in nischaya—matters of the Self-there is no deviation or slippage. Dadashri: Once the vyavahaar—relative worldly interaction slips then verily there will be slippage in nischaya—the state of the Self. It may seem so to you that there is no slippage from the Self. The mind may give you false impressions that, 'nothing has been disturbed in the Self.' But if the relative worldly interaction becomes unsteady-being on the wrong track—then understand that the nischaya—state of the Self has slipped and become unsteady for sure. Beware of this one critical point! When the track is never switched then it is correct. No one dare switch it, one should not be so gullible, and then it is correct. So many persons come and tell me all kinds of things but I remain unmoved. I do not let their talks sway me. Questioner: Primarily, which matters are you talking about with reference to not being moved? Dadashri: Samyak—the real and the right—the state of the Self. I would investigate and reach for the right in it. And then I would cancel it. Afterwards, if someone tries to instigate it further, he will not get any response. Many people do say, 'Dada is guileless bhoda.' At least try to estimate 'Dada' He is the Self. He would not be guileless bhoda or otherwise. Would He be guileless? If a Gnani Purush is guileless then what is the difference between him and a stupid person? Do you have any ability to sort out-critically analyze—this talk? Are you able to critically appreciate this line of conversation that you are involved in?
