________________ be ruined! The one on the path of liberation should be without suspicion Once there is suspicion about a person, there is separation from that person. The echoes of suspicion will inevitably reach the other person. Therefore, there should be no suspicion, and as soon as suspicion occurs, it should be removed with awareness. What happens when the daughters go off to college and parents begin to suspect their character? It only creates unhappiness! Children try to look for love from outsiders because they do not receive any at home, and consequently slip. This can be avoided by living with them as their friends and having love for them. However, if the daughter takes a wrong step, can you kick her out of the house? One must give protection with love and avoid losses! Caution in the beginning is welcome, but one should never be suspicious! Where there is no suspicion, there is no unhappiness of any kind. To have suspicion is the result of past karma, but to keep suspicion is not a result of past karma. That will cause worsening of one's inner intent. Suspicion is the greatest weakness; it kills the self. If someone has suspicion about the Gnani Purush, the Gnani Purush will know everything and yet behave in a natural way as if nothing has happened. The Gnani does not have the slightest separation from the person who is suspicious about him. His inseparability, his oneness will only make the other person become free from suspicion. It is better to slap someone than to suspect him, at least this way there is an instant solution but to suspect someone will eat you up day and night all the way to death Suspicious people can never succeed in any task. Success selects those who do not harbor suspicion. Suspicion is removed by remaining in a suspicion-less state, in the state of the Self. Does anyone ever become suspicious about death? One quickly removes any suspicion there. As long as the Gnani Purush is there to help, all kinds of suspicions can be resolved completely and thereafter there will be no obstacles in the path to liberation. Having suspicion is double the loss. First, there is the direct suffering and secondly there is a loss (karmic) of seeing faults in the other person. Akram Vignan says 'You' tell the one (your relative-self) who harbors suspicion 'don't suspect anyone. The one who does the telling is separate from the one who has suspicions! Can one give a car to a driver who has suspicions about getting into an accident? You should not be in the company of a suspicion-laden person at all; otherwise he will engulf you in suspicions too. Those with suspicion get into trouble, that is the law of nature and those who do not listen to suspicion have no difficulties at all Why should one be consumed by suspicion in a world where even what is witnessed with one's own eyes is proven wrong? A single seed of suspicion will grow into an entire jungle! As we do in Algebra, we should just cross out suspicions. Finally, one should remove all suspicions by separating one's Self from the one (relative-self) who suspects, by employing Gnan and by scolding and threatening the relative self.
