Swami said, “Dharmaswarupānand Brahmachāri was not able to rid thoughts of whether his food and water were prepared according to or against the methods of the scriptures.” Then, Harishankarbhai asked, “Can such doubts remain even in those with ātma-nishthā?” Swami answered, “They do not remain in one with ātma-nishthā. If they have other deficiencies, doubts will remain. If one has ātma-nishthā, but like Mayārām Bhatta, their deep impressions of being a rishi from previous birth will not be eradicated.” On that, Swami spoke of the deep impressions that were etched in Duryodhan’s and Yudhishthir’s jiva.1 Footnotes: 1. 1. Duryodhan had adharma deeply impressed in his soul. He did not accept Krishna’s talks of dharma. Yudhishthir had dharma deeply impressed in his soul. He experienced despair after speaking a trivial lie - that Ashwatthāmā could be a man or an elephant. Even Krishna spoke to him about coming out of his despair but he was unable to rid his doubts like Arjun.
