Swami described the glory of the great Sadhu: “He is great, has realized God, lives according to the commands of God, tolerates hardships; God is under his control, God does as he says, God travels to wherever he says; he has won over God, he knows the opinions of God, he grants moksha, by his darshan one has the darshan of God, by worshipping him one worships God; he frees us from having to stay in the womb, hell and the cycle of births and deaths and helps us attain the limitless Akshardham of God; he helps us attain similarity to God – that is how great he is. “God cannot live without him and by his darshan the five grave sins are burnt away. By the actions of his senses the universe is enlivened, and kāl, karma and māyā tremble before him. Just as by worshipping the body, the jiva is worshipped, similarly, by worshipping this Sadhu, God is worshipped. He is the provider of food; the indweller, omniscient, all-doer, and he appears to be like a human but is not human, God continuously stays with him, he helps one attain the eternal abode; he is the doer, yet is the non-doer; like a tree his body is for the benefit of others, he possesses the qualities of the genuine Sadhu which have been described in the scriptures; he is ‘kāmil, kābil sub hunar tere hāth.’1 One should understand his glory in this way.” Footnotes: 1. 1. He is pure and perfect and has mastered all the arts.
