Vaat 5.10
Swamini Vato Prakaran 5 Vaat 10 · 5 · Verse 10
Sanskrit Original
Pachhī Harishankarbhāīe pūchhyu je, “Pragaṭ Bhagwān ne ā Mūḷ Sādhu maḷyā chhe tethī pūraṇkām mānavu ke vāsanā ṭaḷe to mānavu?” Swāmīe uttar karyo je, “Nishchay thayo eṭale vāsanā ṭaḷī chūkī, māṭe pūraṇkām mānavu. Ne āgnā pāḷavānī ruchi rākhavī ne asat desh-kāḷe āgnā lopāy to paṇ tene vighna nathī.”
Then Harishankarbhai asked, “Should we feel fulfilled because we have attained manifest God and this true Sadhu, or only when our material desires are overcome?” Swami replied, “Because conviction has developed, worldly desires will surely be overcome. Therefore, believe oneself to be fulfilled now and harbour a desire to follow the commands of God. And if the commands are transgressed due to adverse place, time, etc. still one faces no obstacles (on the path of moksha).”
