What is Baba's Advice regarding our Behavior ?

April 9, 2007

The following words of Baba are general and invaluable. If they are

kept in mind and acted upon, they will always do you good. " Unless

there is some relationship or connection, nobody goes anywhere. If

any men or creatures come to you, do not discourteously drive them

away, but receive them well and treat them, with due respect. Shri

Hari (God) will be certainly pleased, if you give water to the

thirsty, bread to the hungry, clothes to the naked, and your

verandah to strangers for sitting and resting. If anybody wants any

money from you, and you are not inclined to give, do not give, but

do not bark at him, like a dog. Let anybody speak hundreds of things

against you, do not resent by giving any bitter reply. If you always

tolerate such things, you will certainly be happy. Let the world go

topsy-turvy, you remain where you are. Standing or staying in your

own place, look on calmly at the show of all things passing before

you. Demolish the wall of difference that separates you from Me; and

then the road for our meeting will be clear and open. The sense of

differentiation, as I and thou, is the barrier that keeps away the

disciple from his Master, and unless that is destroyed the state of

union or atonement is not possible, " Allah Malik " i.e. God is the

sole Proprietor, nobody else is our Protector. His method of work is

extra-ordinary, invaluable, and inscrutable. His will will be done

and He will show us the way, and satisfy our heart's desires. It is

on account of Rinaubandh (former relationship) that we have come

together, let us love and serve each other and be happy. He, who

attain the supreme goal of life, is immortal and happy; all others

merely exist, i.e., live so long as they breathe " .
