Persevering faith in case of Doubt

A Prarthana Samajist went to Baba. However before seeing baba, he had a

discussion with somebody else as to whether Baba had the characteristics

of a Stitha Prajna as defined in Gita. This unsettled his mind and he

wavered in his faith and went to Baba.

Baba: Syama, take him and tell him something.

Then, Syama took his wada and gave his advice. 1) " Despise irresponsible

and uninformed people's talk, 2) Place your mind at Baba's feet, 3) All

will be safe " .

Then they returned to Baba.

Baba: Follow Syama's advice.

Baba: Do not get over-ascetic, e.g., by giving away all food, play and

exercise. Rather regulate your meals, rest, etc. cf " Yuktahara Vihara " .

Baba To Kusa bhav, Baba: When you come next, come two of you (i.e., get

MARRIED and come).
