That Maharaj said in the 62nd Vachanamrut that God has 39 redemptive attributes. How do they manifest in a Sadhu? So why did God not say so in that? The saints did not say so, and Maharaj did not say so either. That in all devotees, the common word 'devotee' was not used. Why was it used only for a Sadhu? What is it? No matter how householders are, God's redemptive attributes do not manifest in them. They cannot become vessels of redemptive attributes. Why? A family is attached behind them. A family is attached behind them. That same attribute is a virtue and a redemptive attribute, what is the difference between the two? Redemptive means being a source of happiness to others. It becomes very useful to others. Then it is a redemptive attribute. If that same attribute is useful to oneself, then? Then it is called a virtue. So if a householder has this attribute, it is useful to themselves. Only a Sadhu's role is such, a platform given by God. So a Sadhu means one who gives up his self-interest, that is a Sadhu. Still, Maharaj considered a Sadhu as such. So if those attributes of God manifest in a Sadhu, redemptive attributes, then they become redemptive attributes. If those same attributes manifest in a householder, then they become virtues. It does not become a redemptive attribute. In a redemptive attribute, one's self-interest must be zero. Until then, that attribute does not become redemptive. It does not become a redemptive attribute. If, despite being a Sadhu, he only pursues his own self-interest, then it is not called a redemptive attribute, even if he has vairagya, has knowledge within himself, observes dharma dharma 1) Universal law or principle that 'sustains' or 'upholds' the entire world.

It was not given to the householder. A householder's attributes are called virtues. He is called a gentleman. But the title of redemptive attributes is given to God, and also to a Sadhu. Because if he has no self-interest. If there is that selflessness. If he becomes selfish, if there is any hint of selfishness, then redemptive attributes do not manifest in him. There may be virtues. So, redemption. So, one worships those redemptive attributes. Not the worship of virtues as such. Gandhiji was there, so he was called truth, 'man man Mind.
