...."Now I will explain to you the properties of a person who is desirous of
absolution (Mumukshu). You must listen to me carefully with faith".
- One who is sick with the state of being bound, one who knows good from the bad and is keen on meeting with the Lord is a Seeker (Mumukshu).
- If a person repents his past deeds can attain absolution even though he was a sinner.
- A person who is happy with his destined state, one who is afraid of sins, one who does not lie is a seeker.
- One who is sincere to God, who is polite to holymen and who follows the path of morality is a seeker.
- One who does not leave good company, even for a moment and whose tongue is busy with the name of Hari is a Follower (Sadhaka).
- One who realizes that the worldly desires are poisonous, and who tries, every day to understand the Adhyatma Vidhyas is a follower.
- One who prays to the Lord in solitude is called a follower.
- One who is overpowered with joy while listening to the name and acts of the Lord is a follower.
- One who does not allow the Lord to escape from his mind and the one who serves the holymen without caring for his own vanity is a follower.
- One who considers praise and slander, honour and insult, people and the Lord same, is called a Siddha.
- One who is not affected by the six enemies, one who is through with his wishes, who considers others as saints, who has no place for suspicion or desire, who has no sense of duality is a Siddha.
- A Siddha knows that he is the Bramhan. He does not care for the body. He is devoid of pleasure and pain.
Baba continued …."I have explained these four states to you. You must think over this. Everything, living and non-living, is a form of the Lord. There is nothing without Him. He is everywhere. Everything is filled with Him.
Due to the Illusion (Maya), we cannot understand his existence. You, Madhav, Maruti, Pandharinath, Mhalasapati, Kashinath, Adkar,Haripant, Sathe, Tatya, Ganesh Beray, Venu, Bhalchandra and I are the parts of the Lord. Therefore, no one should hate anyone. One should not forget that the Lord is present in even.' person. Knowing this, a person reaches the state of being devoid of enmity. At this state, everything follows automatically. The human mind, then, is unrestrained. One must try to stabilize it.
A fly sits on everything but when it sees fire, it moves away from its direction. Same is the human mind ,it is delighted with everything but at the sight of Bramhan (Knowledge) it turns its face away. Oh Narayan, unless this mind is united with the Bramhan, the cycle of birth and death cannot be avoided.One must free oneself from this cycle in this human birth because there is no better chance except in this birth.
