________________ Questioner: Is the pleasure seeking behavior masti of the prakruti—the non-Self complex of thoughts, speech and body? Dadashri: What else then? One has been habituated to stay there only, no? So You need to tell the non-Self, 'no, I need to go this way, I don't want to any masti transient pleasure, I wish to proceed on my path and attain my goal.' These mastis of the prakruti will lead you in a web of entrapment. That which breaks Your goal is your enemy. How can You afford that?

What will happen to someone like this? There will be no one to bring him back to the main path. Therefore, if you desire liberation do not indulge in ‘talking about this'. If someone asks anything, just say, 'I do not know.' To reveal the danger zones and pitfalls on the path of liberation is our role. If 'we' do not point them out, the whole caravan of liberation can be destroyed.
