The day Swami came from Vartal, he said, ‘Ākuti-chitichāpalyarahitā nishparigrahāhā.’1 When someone has these 64 attributes,2 then one becomes a sadhu. If one continuously associates, day and night, until the final dissolution of the universe, with sadhus such as Gopalanand Swami, Krupanand Swami, Swarupanand Swami and Muktanand Swami, then one can become a complete sadhu. And without saintliness, happiness is not experienced and ultimate moksha is also not attained. So whatever deficiencies remain will have to be overcome.” Footnotes: 1. 1.
