WHO AM I ?
come here is dependent upon so many different circumstances.
A lot of circumstances have to be just right and precise in order
for you to be able to come here.
If you had a migraine, you may have to go back even
after arriving on time. If you yourself were truly independent
and came here on your own accord, your migraine would have
no bearing upon your being here.
Or, if on your way here to satsang, you meet a friend
who insists that you go with him then, you would have to turn
back. Therefore, so many circumstances have to be just right.
You would only be able to come to satsang provided there are
no obstacles preventing you from coming.

Questioner : Yes.
Dadashri : A person is proud of himself when he earns
money, but when he incurs a loss or fails, he makes excuses or
says, “God is upset with me.”
Questioner : This is a convenient excuse.
Dadashri : Yes convenient, but one should not accuse
God of anything. It is okay if we accuse a lawyer or someone
else, but how can we accuse God? A lawyer can file a suit and
claim damages, but who will file this suit? Such accusations
cause terrible bondage in the next life. Can anyone accuse God?
Questioner : No.
