needed. How can one even have that much expectation? One cannot even harbor that much expectation!
Therefore, tackle with a solution. If someone comes and tells you your knowledge is very deep and profound', know instantly that this is the place where the the disease is going to grow. The direct living cause of the disease is right here ! Become very alert there!
Did you ever experience sweetness in this matter before? The day you the sweetness takes hold vartey is the day this disease will arise. Then again, if the sweetness is experienced again in it, it will sprout long shoots, just like the shoots on the mango tree. It reaches a certain height with two shoots, then with an additional pair of shoots, it will grow taller; it will continue to grow in this manner. If one drinks the water of this sweetness, it will nurture this plant. If the sweetness arises upon hearing, 'Wow Chandulal! You have become a Gnani' then the disease has started to grow within.
Now if that happens, if the sweetness is experienced, you should apply another solution. This solution is to erase it immediately. We do have solutions for it. It is natural for that disease to arise. The disease of the seed that has been sewn in the past life will manifest in this life. We do have solutions for the diseases, here. This Vignan we have, is not without solutions, is it?
Questioner: No. Here every sentence is capable of getting rid of all the diseases.
Dadashri: Yes, we do have the solutions. The root of this disease lies in the sweetness that prevails varte when someone gives you compliments, 'very good thing has happened.' And there is sweetness in this, is there not? It will make one forget about liberation moksha.
Questioner: But it is dangerous, very dangerous as far as liberation is concerened.
Dadashri: Yes, dangerous, it is killing of the self atmaghati ! If someone says that to you, you simply have to reply, 'brother, only I know what my situation is. How would you know?' If you say this, he will calm down. Do you want to be a guru?
