Lākh maṇ loḍhānī loḍhī dhagāvī hoy te upar so ghaḍā pāṇī reḍye ṭāḍhī paḍe nahi. E to Gangānā dharāmā nākhe to ṭāḍhī thāy. Tem ā samāgam dharā jevo chhe ne hālamā kalyāṇ thāy chhe te jem chār mahināno varsād varasyo hoy temā loḍhī dhagelī rahe nahi tevu kalyāṇ thāy chhe.
If a hundred thousand kilo iron pan is heated until it is red hot, then it cannot be cooled by pouring only a hundred pots of water. It is cooled if it is placed in the flowing Ganga. Similarly this association with the Sadhu is like the forceful flow of water. And the moksha attained at present is like when it rains continually for four months the pan does not stay hot – such moksha is attained at present.
