Swamini Vato Prakaran 6 Vaat 195 · 6 · Verse 195
Sanskrit Original
Vaḷī, kahyu je, “Jo tame āvyā to darshan thayā. Karoḍ janma tap karīe to paṇ āṭalī vātunā jeṭalo samās na thāy, jo vichār hoy to. Māṭe Bhagwān ke Bhagwānnā jan pāse gayā vinā chhūṭako thāy nahī ne gnān paṇ āve nahī. Ne so varas Bhagwān bheḷā rahīe to paṇ Sādhu pāse rahyā vinā samajaṇ na āve. Ne koīk Mahārāj pāse āvīne thoḍuk bese tyā Mahārāj ke’she je, Muktānand Swāmī pāse jāo. Em mokaltā. Pachhī Swāmī vātu karatā. Te māṭe Moṭā Sādhu sevavā.” Pachhī “Bhagwānnī peṭhe sevavā jog Sādhunā lakṣhaṇ Chhellā Prakaraṇnā Chhavvīsnā Vachanāmṛutmā chhe te vāncho,” em āgnā karīne vanchāvyu.
Swami also said, “Because you came, you got darshan. If one performs austerities for ten million births, still one would not get the benefits that arise from these spiritual talks, if one thinks like this. Therefore, there is no alternative but to go to God or his Sadhu. And spiritual knowledge is also not attained without them. Even if one stays a hundred years with God, without close association with the Sadhu, understanding of God’s glory does not develop. If someone came to sit a little with Maharaj, then Maharaj would say, ‘Go to Muktanand Swami.’ In this way he used to send everyone to the sadhus. Then Muktanand Swami would talk about the glory of Shriji Maharaj. So one should serve a senior sadhu. Read the qualities of the genuine Sadhu worthy of worship on par with God in Vachanamrut Gadhada III-26.” In this way he instructed and had it read.
