THE DASBODHA BY: SADGURU SHREE SAMARTH RAMDAS ...

themselves as they consider anything done with a sense of gratitude to the God is a great
opportunity, organize the various festivals and the anniversaries of the Sages and Saints.
They, are very excited to listen to the preaching of the Saints wherein
there is praise of the God as they consider the God as an inseparable part of them, brush aside even
very important personal work while working for others’ cause, never boast about themselves and
their achievements, on the contrary they feel elated to do anything for others and for pleasing the
God without thinking for a moment even if it involves work which is usually done by the needy and
poor as for them everything done in good sense for others will ultimately please the God and this is
precisely what they want. They will keep fast to provide food for others or as a prayer to the God,
they don’t have any addictions and even if they have they leave it at once when they realize that the
God dislikes them. They, are soft spoken, never talk crudely rudely or cruelly, follow the rules and
regulations of spiritualism and are very happy to keep the Sages, Saints and the Yogis satisfied.
They readily part with their pride and while explaining the
spiritualism and singing the praise of the God, Saints and the Guru they almost choke with
emotions and forget the presence of their body and mind. Their love for the God is incomparable to
anything, nothing can disturb it and it grows further with the passage of time.
They, always talk about the God, serve his worshippers, never care
much for their body, are disillusioned with the visible, know that this is all Maya, an illusion, are
constantly in search of ways to get out of this materialistic life through the wisdom of realization of
the Atman and are bored by the ungainly family life.
They are absolutely annoyed by anything but the God, Guru and
Saints. Through them they know that courage can be gathered to fight any sort of difficulties. They
are not bound by anything and have a positive disliking for the bodily pleasures. Their love for the
God, Guru and the Saints attains such a level that the others think that they have gone mad and
even trouble them, yet their love for them goes on increasing rather than the other way round
because of the troubles.
They get intuitions from the God himself; their mind is full of the
thoughts about the real self and all their doubts vanish. They want to use their body for the cause of
others, they are at utmost peace with themselves and forgiveness and kindness come naturally to
them. They welcome anyone who visits them and considering the visitor as God they serve him.
They never refuse shelter to anyone. They have conquered their desires and lust and also have full
control over their senses and their demands. They don’t vie for anything except the God. They
know that one has to bear one’s own cross and also that the destiny can’t be changed but can be
molded in such a way that whatever it has to offer in the form of sufferings can be born with
courage and calmness of mind, a quality which makes them unafraid of any damn calamity.
They are ready to part with all their people, property, money and
everything for the sake of the God. Even if they become poor and nobody helps them and are
therefore living in utterly filthy environment they still refuse to refrain from uttering the Gods name
all the time and also never blame the God come what may.
They behave and work in such a way that even after they have left
their mortal body their memory echoes in the minds of the posterity for eons to come. They know
what others are lacking in but never utter about that to anyone. They never retaliate even if
someone insults them. They rather help the people despite them being arrogant, vicious and
unnecessarily and severely critical of them. They are happy in others’ happiness and grieve in
other’s grief. They after being authorized by the Guru and if asked for by others teach them the
morals, ethics and rules and regulations to be followed while living in a society and also while
