________________ (2) (3) Think and You Will Get It The first teaching of the saint is that you are in bondage due to your own fault. Your only fault is to believe yourself as owner of other things and forget your own self. Association of the enlightened is of supreme benefit for the soul. Compassion is the intrinsic nature of religion: Where there is no compassion there can be no religion. Detachment is the perfect guide to lead us to enduring happiness. All religious practices, austerities, and study of scriptures are to achieve only one goal; and that is to disregard all mundane matters and surrender at the holy feet of a saint (divine truth). In the ever-changing world the association of saints is invaluable and incomparable. Wise men constantly strive to avoid endless pain and sufferings of infinite births for the sake of trivial pleasures of this life. Great saints advise us to keep constant vigil against adding new karma while undergoing the fruition of the past karma.
