26 Aptavani-2
• Who am I?
• What connection do I have with this person here?
• Will these people ever become mine?
These teeth do not become clean even after brushing them for sixty-five years. Should we then not understand what is true and what is false? All your life you have scraped your tongue clean but even then, it does not remain clean. Everyday you spend time taking care of your teeth but even then they do not remain loyal to you. Did your tooth not start hurting today? That is what this world is like. This world is truly like that; it will let you down in the hour of your need. A daughter-in-law will massage her mother-in-law’ s feet everyday, but when the daughter-in-law has a stomachache, the mother-in-law will tell her to take some ajwain seeds! Everyone will give such suggestions but will the mother-in-law take on the pain of the daughter-in-law? Tell me, for that matter does your husband or children take on your pain? This world is such that it works the bullock until it becomes crippled and then they will take it to a slaughterhouse. As long as the father earns money, they have affection for him and when he stops working, they will tell him to sit on one side. They will even tell him he has no sense. This is what the world is like! The entire worldly life is one big betrayal. If there were any good in it, would this Dada not say,“ This much of it is real and worthwhile”? However, in reality it is nothing but a betrayal. Nothing in this worldly life can ever be truly yours. Everyone is a living‘ top’( spinning toy); they will never let you be in peace. Arey, even if you want to come to this satsang and do darshan, they will not let you. So the fact that they do let you come is very good.
Only the pure Soul is your true relative
Dadashri: When you wake up in the middle of the night, what is the first thing that comes into your awareness?
