________________ Are you aware that these kashayas get their feedings? Are you able to tell which one of them came and ate? The kashayas come and eat all such within. This is how they feed. If they get a feeding just twice a month, they become as strong as they were before. The kashayas have never been fed in our home, which is why they all left. Once it has been decided, 'I do not want to feed them', then they will not feed. Awareness jagruti is needed. Those kashayas are still sitting there; they have not gone away. But at the same time, 'we' have not killed them either. 'We' am not himsak violent, and that is why they have not gone away yet. 'We do not have the to starve them to death either. They simply remain at bay because of the Presence of the Gnani Purush, so what can 'we' do? We should not deliberately call them either. Do they ever come to you to dine? Questioner: Yes they do. Dadashri: If you feed them raw food today, then tomorrow they will dine on cooked food. Therefore, you must never have a relationship or interaction of feeding them. Whereas people feed them all the time, they feed their anger, they feed their pride etc. Questioner: These kashayas eat all the food, energy, so what should I do? Dadashri: They will come to eat. Nevertheless Dadaji stands over you and through his blessings and grace krupa, it is possible to clean everything. If you move away from this satsang on your own, then everything will immediately latch on to you. You should never leave Dadaji's support and protection. These kashayas of anger-pride-deceit-greed are suppressed within and they can still flare up suddenly if they get a chance. So, if you want to bring an end to them all, then the only way is let them die. Understand these two words, oopsham that which can reignite and kshayak that which will not reignite.
