________________ Dadashri: To hide vastu that which is. All of this is nothing but deceit kapat, is it not? Is this deceit kapat not responsible for doing everything wrong within? This only happens when deceit kapat and ego get together. Who takes you on the wrong path? It is anger-pride-deceit-greed. When these four get together, they will take you on the wrong path. The ego is the root cause. And what does one have greed lobha for within? One enjoys the taste that lies within. Not a single percent of deceit kapat can remain within, before awareness jagruti can result in the experience parinaam of Gnan. There should not be any element of deceit kapat of any kind. There should not be any thought of sexuality at all. So what all must leave? The ego must come to an end. The intellect buddhi must come to an end, it will not do if it is smoldering or apparently dead. It has to die. When all the karmas are destroyed kshaya, then angerpride-deceit-greed, will also be destroyed. When all these attributes are annihilated, then the speech will become syadvaad will not hurt any living being and will be acceptable to all. Until then there is danger. There is tremendous danger, extreme danger! Starve the kashayas for three years The energies of anger, pride, deceit and greed are sitting within, waiting in anticipation of 'when will he let go of Dada so that we can grab him.' They are always ready to show you this and that entice You away from the Self. As long as they are standing within, they have not been uprooted and they can creep back again. Until they are eliminated completely, it is not worth saying anything. Such speech will be blown away in the air without any effect. Hence, it is not worth saying anything. When the sweetness mithaash is taken, it is the same as having been fed. The kashayas of anger-pride-illusoin-greed get nourishment and they will use their strength and energies in full force on the other side. They become weak because they remain hungry from not getting any food for a while. If you do not feed them, if you were to starve them for three years, then they will go away. But people continue to feed them a little at a time. People are so compassionate aren't they? So they keep feeding the kashayas. However, if you were to starve them completely, they would not remain past three years. Once they leave, the entire kingdom comes into your hands.
