“One should not keep the company of a fool, because a king’s attendant was a fool and he gave the king a bāti.”1 This is what Maharaj used to say. Footnotes: 1. 1. Brahmaswarup Yogiji Maharaj narrates a folk tale regarding this: One king had a friend. He and his friend were banished from their kingdom. During their banishment, they both stayed together, ate together, and slept together. They baked bātis (a type of a roti made of wheat flour) to eat. After some time, the king acquired his kingdom back. The king made his friend a minister. Many people brought expensive gifts for the king. In the past, the king and his friend ate bātis. After he became a minister, the friend still ate bātis. He bought flour from the market and made eight bātis. When the king was presiding in his court, he brought six bātis covered by a cloth. Everyone asked, “What did you bring?” He said, “Bātis.” Everyone said, “Does the king eat that?” The king was embarrassed. The friend said, “If you are hungry and these aren’t enough, you can have my two bātis also.” The king was perturbed and imprisoned him. Vivek (discretion) is the 10th treasure. One should know how to conduct oneself and know what to say and when to say it.
