Bhagwān vinā bījo sankalp thāy to baḷbaḷto ḍām de evu dukh āpaṇne thātu nathī paṇ upāsanānā pratāpthī sarve doṣh ṭaḷī gayā chhe. Māṭe ‘Hu Bhagwānno chhu ne Bhagwān mārā Swāmī chhe.’ Eṭalo bhāv rākhavo. Ne sharīr-sharīrī tathā kāraṇ-kārya tathā anvay-vyatirek e Vachanāmṛutne samajyā vinā arth karavo nahī, nīkar bādh āvashe. Māṭe āpaṇe to Swāmī-Sevakne bhāve upāsanā draḍh rākhavī eṭale sarve doṣh ṭaḷashe.
When thoughts other than those of God arise, one does not feel pain like that which is experienced when a branding iron is applied. But by the power of upāsanā all faults are overcome. Therefore, maintain the sentiment that “I am God’s and God is my master.” Preserve this feeling. Also, never try to explain the meaning of ‘the body-soul relationship,’ ‘cause-effect,’ and the ‘immanent-transcendent aspects of God’ without thoroughly understanding the Vachanamrut, otherwise obstacles will be encountered. Therefore, we should develop firm upāsanā, together with the master-servant understanding. Consequently all faults will be overcome.
