God has such an intense desire, and for that, God makes a lot of effort that some jiva walks on the path of God. If, while doing so, one falls from the path of God, then Maharaj says that he feels a lot of sorrow. If a son dies, and he is the only one for a householder. Such sorrow occurs to God if one jiva falls back from the path of God. Maharaj said that God comes to this earth to establish ekantik dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world.

This is considered to be a greater avatãr than the others, as Shree Krishna possessed all of the powers of Bhagvãn, whereas other avatãrs possessed less power. Shree Krishna conveyed the message of love and humanity to the world. Also, He recited the epic poem, the Bhagvad Geetã, to Arjun in which He stated: ‘Whenever dharma declines and adharma increases, I shall incarnate myself as a human to save the holy, to destroy the sin of the sinner, and to establish dharma.

Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → And after God, that is his place. So, but in that, God wrote only one characteristic: 'nirmat saranaam satam'. We often say. Why did God write only one characteristic, that a saint should be 'nirmat sar'? How many characteristics does a saint have? An ekantik saint should have at least more than one characteristic. How can one work with just one? Maharaj wrote five or six characteristics in the Vachanamrut, that if one has these six characteristics. If one serves him, it is service to God, and if one betrays him, it is betrayal of God. In the Bhagavat, 30 characteristics are written. 39 are written. In Satsang Satsang 1) True company. The practice of associating with Bhagvãn’s sant, other satsangis, the ãtmã, and the sacred shãstras, and also observing vartmãns and niyams. 2) Also refers to the sampradãy, which is the presence of good company.

Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → Even if they are incomplete, they do it. That's what he said. What does that mean? Even if there is only one, why would he have taken only one reason? If there are others or not, it works. He has many characteristics. But only one. That 'nirmat saranaam satam'. Such pure-hearted sadhus of God can nourish the ekantik dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → If they are few, if they are small, they do small things, and if they are big, they do big things, that's all. They nourish. Pure. And if there is jealousy, even if they are very great, they cannot do it; we just keep on wasting time, don't we? He specifically showed the characteristic of jealousy.

Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → And the result is zero. He doesn't get the fruit. We often talk about how Duryodhana observed double the ekantik dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → Double. When Yudhishthir Maharaj had to go to the forest, all the Brahmins went with him. And they walked together and said, Yudhishthir Maharaj asked, "Where are you all going?" So they said, "Maharaj, we are coming with you." But he said, "I am going to the forest." There, I won't have any facilities, and if you remain hungry, I will incur sin. So you turn back. They said, "Maharaj, we will live as you live." If you eat forest fruits, we will also eat them. We won't need anything, but we enjoy staying with you. We enjoy staying with you very much, so we will stay with you. It's not that we have any need, so we are coming with you. But Yudhishthir Maharaj said, "You turn back." So Duryodhana met him and said, "Brother, where are you going?" So they said, "We are going with Yudhishthir." What are you going to do? You turn back, I will give you double dakshina. I will give double the dakshina that Yudhishthir was giving. And Yudhishthir used to perform yagnas until noon, I will perform them until evening. I will do everything double. And he did. In Kiratarjuniya, the poet Bharavi has written very well. That Duryodhana started all the aspects more than Yudhishthir Maharaj. So, did Duryodhana get the fruit of ekantik dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → What do you think? Guess. You saw it, and none of us saw it. Did he get it or not? He wouldn't have gotten it. Why wouldn't he have gotten it? When he died, he went to hell, and Yudhishthir went to get him out, so it means he didn't get it, right? Duryodhana was in hell. When Yudhishthir found out, Yudhishthir went to hell to get him out. That Duryodhana is my brother, no matter what. He went to get him out. So he wouldn't have gotten the fruit of ekantik dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → So if he did double, where did he go? He did double, he observed ekantik dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → He doesn't get the fruit. Again, he performs all the rituals of ekantik dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → If he is jealous. Does he perform the ritual of theft or the ritual of charity? Karna was with him. So Karna made a vow. That if anyone asks me for something, I should not refuse them. If someone asks me for something, I should not refuse them. If someone asks for my life, I should give my life. So Karna is called a donor. And Bali Raja is called a donor. Two great philanthropists emerged. The third one, Bill Gates, has just become one. He donated a lot. The fourth is Warren Buffett. So all of them are called donors. So Karna was a donor, but he didn't get any fruit from it, as he went with Duryodhana, so he didn't get any fruit. Because the vow he took was out of jealousy. I have to give charity. But until when? Until I finish off Arjuna. It comes in the Mahabharata. I am not less than him. So does he have to do good or bad? He has to do good. If he wants to show that he is not less. Then he has to perform good actions, but he doesn't get the fruit. God is not pleased. So how can he nourish the Bhagavat dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → So he refused the jealous ones. Even if others are a little incomplete, they can nourish the Bhagavat dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → So, after God, the nourishment of Bhagavat dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world.

So his belief is that to die physically is not death. But to fall from the activity of ekantik dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → So if we stop the activity of ekantik, then we are considered fallen, right? What is it called? But if we stop it, then.

But if he takes the fault of one who is engaged in that activity, then he is considered fallen. What does the fault-taker do then? He performs the activity of ekantik dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → It's not something to be forgotten in this. It's something that can be forgotten. He performs the activity and is called fallen. He performs the activity. And he is called fallen. What is it called? Is he called walking or fallen? Maharaj has said in the Vachanamrut, is it that or are you saying something else? Am I saying something from my home or to you? See what Maharaj said. If we think a little about the scriptures, we realize. That God comes to this earth to lead others on the path of God. And leading others on the path of God is called the activity of Bhagavat dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world. Righteousness, morality, religion, Tap to open in glossary → The activity of Bhagavat dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world.

The sorrow of one who does not make an effort is less, but it goes in vain after making an effort. He does make an effort, but all those efforts go in vain. God feels a lot of sorrow for that. God has given these senses, inner faculties, and materials. And all the materials of satsang satsang 1) True company. The practice of associating with Bhagvãn’s sant, other satsangis, the ãtmã, and the sacred shãstras, and also observing vartmãns and niyams. 2) Also refers to the sampradãy, which is the presence of good company.
