Explaining Sadhana-oriented sections from Swamiji’s book “My Beloved Baba’, Ma says that Swamiji imbibed whatever he observed in Baba. Giving great value and importance to Baba’s guidance, Swamiji meticulously applied all that he learnt.
Baba said that when one leaves home and takes up a life of austerity, he belongs to the whole world and the whole world becomes his family. Living in this larger family, he must be ready for praise as well as insults. In dealing with devotees and seekers, the saint must be discreet; he must wisely discourage anyone speaking ill of another.
For Swamiji, the call of renunciation was very strong. There was a yearning to dedicate his whole life to the Self, which is neither external, nor internal. It is wholesome, One and unmistakable in its expression.
Baba reminded him that a seeker is already full with what he seeks. To realize the Self one must drop all desires and possessiveness. A seeker must praise none and pray to none; he must be simply seated in his own Self. The challenge to the fullness (Poornata) comes from one’s own mind and intelligence. So, one must make the knowledge doubt-free and absolute. If there is any difficulty, one must look to none and nowhere except their own sadhana, which should burn all defects and imperfections.
