So, one should be careful about that. God has mentioned two precautions in the Gita, hasn't he? He whose mind is not egoistic, and whose intellect is not tainted. Is not tainted. So, in that, two precautions should be taken. Which two precautions? Firstly, one should not become attached to worldly objects. And if something good happens, arrogance should not arise. If one becomes cautious and joins in God's service, then he remains nirvikar. The cause of flaws is all this attachment. And ego. Either there is attachment or there is ego. In that, attachment is the first stage. And ego is a higher stage. Ego. It comes later, after going higher. And in the beginning, there is attachment. One who has no support. Attachment destroys him. And one who has support, ego destroys him. That support, I feel in my mind that support should come, that this shouldn't happen to me. And if he is completely loose, like a mattress, then he will be milked by holding his leg. So, if there is no support, attachment destroys him. And if there is support, ego destroys him. One who is not destroyed by both of them is Maharaj's. One who cannot be destroyed by ego and cannot be destroyed by attachment. He is not considered to be of maya. He is considered to be of God. The empire of maya is of this kind, attachment and ego, both. Either he dies in attachment or he dies in ego.

Five sense organs. In the scriptures, somewhere, it is propounded like that, in the Gita and so on. Abandon all dharmas and take refuge in Me alone. After taking refuge, does he have any duty or not? Its clarity, God may not have said it, but there is not much clarity. It is not. But Maharaj clarified that. To please God, to please God, he remains eager day and night even after taking refuge. Refuge is the cause of his salvation. If that is not there, it will not happen. Yes. So, but that means all his duties cease. His selection is gone. The choice is gone. So, the choice is from here to here and from here to here, all options disappear and his options close. This is my kal parmanu. But to please God, one has to remain eager day and night. In this Vachanamrut, Shriji Maharaj has asked a question. The five sense organs and the five organs of action know their respective objects accurately. The wise and the ignorant have the same interaction through the senses. But the senses of a wise person do not behave differently from those of an ignorant person. Yet, the wise are called jitendriya, how is that to be known? Then Muktanand Swami said that when nirvikalpa samadhi occurs, one becomes jitendriya, so it seems. Maharaj raised a doubt that even those in nirvikalpa samadhi perceive the five senses, and that too is perceived through the senses like everyone else. Therefore, there is no difference in perception between those with nirvikalpa samadhi and those without nirvikalpa samadhi. Furthermore, just as those with nirvikalpa samadhi remain nirvikar when they enter samadhi, so too do beings without samadhi remain nirvikar when they enter deep sleep. When the senses become accustomed to objects in the waking state, no difference is seen. So, how is jitendriyatva and ajitendriyatva present in it? If nirvikalpa samadhi is not the main cause in it, then what is the main cause? Then no one could answer. Maharaj replied. The faults that exist in the five senses, such as sound. Which are of the nature of pleasure, pain, and delusion. Enjoyment is the fear of disease. They are the centers of disease and suffering. They are difficult to obtain, and after obtaining them, they are difficult to maintain and are terrifying. When experiencing them, sorrow, fear, and the torments of Yama are associated. Furthermore, the result of enjoying those objects is also extremely painful. They are the cause of the torments of Yama. They create bondage, attachment, and enmity. They invite misfortune, downfall, and death. They are like treasures of worry, sorrow, and anxiety. The result of the burning samskaras is all sorrow for the discerning. According to the Yoga Sutras, it is naturally full of many faults. One who knows it, that is, realizes it by having faith in the scriptures and the Satpurush. And if one knows the benevolent qualities of God's murti murti 1) Sacred idol of Bhagvãn used to offer worship. There are eight types of murtis that can be worshipped: stone, wood, metal, earth, engraved or drawn, sand, gems, and mental. 2) The form of Bhagvãn. Tap to open in glossary → And he develops a sense of enmity towards it. Then he will never develop affection for it. Understanding this, when the knot of the absence of the five senses settles in the mind, in the jiva, that person becomes jitendriya. As shown by Shriji Maharaj, nirvikalpa samadhi is also not a cause of jitendriyatva. The sense of aversion towards the five senses is the cause of jitendriyatva. Therefore, even if there is no nirvikalpa samadhi. But by listening, contemplating, and meditating, if one realizes the faults of the senses in the heart, then one becomes jitendriya and free from desires. That's what Gunatitanand Swami said. If Premanand Swami feels thirsty, Maharaj does not quench it. Satchidanand Swami. If Satchidanand Swami feels thirsty, Maharaj does not quench his thirst. Still, he says, 'Become a jnani.' Don't become a lover. Become a jnani. If thirst is not quenched, it's okay. But one whose worldly thirst is quenched is a jnani. Become a jnani like King Janak. Become a jnani like Parvatbhai. Nirvikalpa samadhi is not the cause of jitendriyatva in samadhi. Maharaj said no, didn't he? So what are you saying, how? How? When is jitendriyatva to be discerned? It's not to be discerned in samadhi. Jitendriyatva is known when one is made to sit amidst the clamor of all five senses. Where. That happens. When the clamor of the five senses is speaking, and he is made to sit there, then he knows how much of a jitendriya he is. Yes. If he goes into samadhi, Maharaj says that the ignorant person remains nirvikar when he goes to sleep, so is he nirvikar? The state of being nirvikari is known in the waking state. And it is known in the presence of the senses. So, how is it known in samadhi? So, samadhi is not its cause. Developing a sense of enmity towards the senses is the cause of jitendriyatva. It is the cause. And how much of that happened to him? And friendship with the senses is the cause of the pamer state. The more friendly one is, the more pamer one becomes. If it's more, then one becomes more pamer. If it's less, then one becomes less pamer.
