THE DASBODHA BY: SADGURU SHREE SAMARTH RAMDAS ...

those who consider their vices as virtues. They are able to do things with such speed which can just
be imagined by us. This is because of their state of constant unification with the God. They thus
aren’t subject to mistakes. And if they do commit any the loss is far greater in magnitude as the
whole society’s fate is at stake.
Others don’t know where, why and how they commit mistakes
neither do they understand what someone else does is right or wrong. The number of such people is
more and thus the chaotic situation which is prevailing. (Shree Samarth mentioned this about his
times but is absolutely true even today). Shree Samarth explains that this can be avoided by being
prudent and wise enough to know your limitations and set boundaries for you which shall not be
exceeded in any given condition.
Those who can’t cope up with the pressures of working for the
masses while pursuing their spirituality are better off looking after themselves and keep their minds
cool and not disturbed by any thing else. If whatever you do neither helps you nor the society then
it is always better that you don’t do these things in the interest of the society. The society doesn’t
have any collective faith or belief in any single thing, the Saintly people have to create it and
sustain it too.
All that happens in the visible which is highly unstable reaches the
soul. All the difficulties in the visible aren’t there in the highly stable Parbrahma which is the only
place for the purest bliss. All that is diseased in the unstable, ceases in existence at the Parbrahma.
There is no grief at that state and only bliss is there and that is why it has to be maintained forever
with the application of highest wisdom. You should understand that you are basically Atman
without any properties. Whatever that is around us including the so called our people is because of
the aftereffects of our karmas and they disappear when their time is over. Knowing this you should
develop the attitude of being unaffected by anything around you. Those who are really bored with
all this and go beyond this are bound to get the final bliss. If you are not concerned about whatever
goes on in and around you, you don’t do anything to either rectify it or try to do something which is
going to be futile. Sometimes it becomes imperative that you have to do something may be for the
uplift of the society but for the remaining period you can afford to be with your own self in
complete bliss. Nothing in this world waits for anyone and therefore you should know for sure that
nothing is greater or better than total inner satisfaction. You are luckily born as a human being,
utilize it to attain and maintain the final bliss.

THE NINTH SAMAS – RAJKARANNIRUPAN (ABOUT POLITICS)
If the knowledgeable has the desire to be amongst the people he
should accept their leadership and then do according to his wishes. But before this he should think
very deeply by going into solitude; about what he desires to be done amongst and by and for the
people. He can think of many plans and the ways of implementing them for the benefit of the
people. If he ceases to think he loses the capacity to formulate any plans let alone implementing
them.
