'I-ness' will go anywhere like a piece of luggage? He will say, 'I am not coming today.' Would anyone be ready to become a piece of luggage? Would anyone say such a thing?
Many people in Mumbai and Vadodara tell 'us', 'Dada, it would have been nice if you had come early.' They say such things, so 'we' reply," They bring me like a baggage and take me away like a baggage.' Then they understand, but they ask me, 'Why do you say "like a baggage'?' Alas! If this is not like a baggage then what is it? The Lord is within for sure, but on the outside if this is not a baggage, then what is it? Hence, there is no 'Iness'.
I will go wherever they carry 'us'. Often there are many things 'we' do not want to eat and yet they are eaten, there are times 'we' do not want to drink and yet 'we' do. A lot is done for which there is no inclination. 'We' do not have a say anything in these matters. It is all mandatory farjiat. 'We' will drink your tea to give encouragement to the host. Even if the tea is too strong and it does not suit the prakruti, 'we' will still drink it because it will make you happy that 'Dada drank my tea.' That is why 'we will drink it.
During this journey that 'we' just made, 'we' did what others asked 'us' to. If they say, 'You have to stay here', 'we' will stay there. If they say, 'Now let us go from here,' then 'we' will do that. 'We do not have any 'weness' amarapanu ; The 'we-ness' is gone completely. For too long 'we' have lived with this 'we-ness'. We did not have any my-ness' mamata from the beginning and therefore there was no problem.
It is like this, I am subservient adhin to everyone. What is the reason behind this? It is because there is no 'I-ness' potapanu . Therefore, I am abslolutely subservient to the circumstances. I am also subservient to all of you. Subservient means the completel egoless state! To be subservient adhinata is a very good thing. 'We do whatever the one who is with 'us' tell 'us' to do. We do not have any opinions. If 'we' feel that there is weakness in what he is saying, 'we' will tell him, 'brother, do it this way. After that, 'we' remain subservient.
