Samvat 1877na Magshar vadi Amasne divas Shriji Maharaj gam Shri Loya madhye Sura Bhaktana darabarma dholiya upar virajman hata ane mastak upar dholo fento bandhyo hato ne bije dhole fente karine bokani vali hati tatha garam posni rati dagali maheli kore dhole angarkhe sahit paheri hati tatha dholo khes paheryo hato tatha chofal odhine te upar pili rajai odhi hati ane potana mukharvindni agal Munini sabha tatha desh-deshna haribhaktani sabha bharaine bethi hati. Evi rite Shriji Maharaj prasanna thaka ratrine same virajman hata.

Pachhi Shriji Maharaj potani mele bolya je, “Juo ne, Bhagwanni mayanu bal kevu chhe! Jene karine viparitpanu ghanu thay chhe; kem je, pratham kevo saro janato hoy ne pachhi atishay bhundo thai jay chhe!” Em kahine pachhi vali Paramhansa pratye bolya je, “Aj to prashna puchho to varta karie.” Tyare Nityanand Swamie puchhyu je, “He Maharaj!

Ane je dehabhimani hoy ne panch-vishayno atishay abhav na thayo hoy, tene jyare sant e vishaynu khandan kare tyare te sant motera hoy teno pan abhav ave ne Bhagwanno pan abhav ave. Ane Bhagwanno to yatharth nishchay hoy to pan jo panch-vishayno atyant abhav na thai gayo hoy ne teni asakti hoy ne te vishaynu Muktanand Swami jeva khandan kare to tenu mathu shastre karine mukavi de evo droh kare.”

Pachhi vali Nityanand Swamie puchhyu je, “Koikne dehabhiman tatha panch-vishayni ashakti hoy to pan te satsangma nabhyo jay chhe, te kem samajavu?” Tyare Shriji Maharaj bolya je, “Ene jya sudhi koik dhakko nathi lagyo tya sudhi nabhyo jay chhe. Pan jyare koik mota sant athava Bhagwan te manne khodashe tatha svad, dehabhiman, lobh, kam, krodh, ene khodashe tyare ene jarur te santno abhav avashe; tyare e jarur santno droh karashe ne satsangmathi vimukh thashe. Jem sarpe lal nakhi hoy evu je dudh-sakar tene jene pidhu hoy ne te jive chhe to pan te ghadi be ghadima, sanj-savare, aj-kal jarur maranaro chhe; tem je dehabhimani chhe te mahine, be mahine, varshe, be varshe, dash varshe, deh mukya same, deh mukine, jyare-tyare pan e jarur santno abhav laine padi jashe. Ane jene dehabhiman na hoy ane em samajato hoy je, ‘Antahkaran-indriyono prakashak ne jene karine deh chale chhe, hale chhe evo je sattarup atma te hu chhu, te hu dhan-striadik koi padarthe karine sukhi thau evo nathi ne e padarth na male tene karine dukhi thau evo nathi.’ Em dradh samajan jene hoy, tene sant game tevi rite panch-vishaynu khandan kare tatha dehabhimannu khandan kare to pan te santno abhav koi rite ave nahi ane tuchchha padarth saru sant sathe bakhedo thay nahi ne ati pan pade nahi.”

Ane lugada jeva-teva jada paherto hoy tema anand hoy tevo zina lugada paherva pade tema anand na rahe ne man munzay. Tem ja sari pathari hoy athava koik man de ityadik je je sara padarthno yog thay tyare tema tenu man munzay, pan tema koi rite anand pame ja nahi; tyare tene em janie je, ene vishayne vishe abhav chhe.”

Pachhi Muktanand Swamie prashna puchhyo je, “He Maharaj! E panch-vishayno abhav kem thay?” Tyare Shriji Maharaj bolya je, “Vishayno abhav thayanu mukhya sadhan to Parameshvarnu mahatmya chhe ne te pachhi atmanishtha ne vairagya chhe. Te mahatmya te shu? To je, Bhagwanni bike karine Indra varshe chhe; Surya, Agni, Chandrama prakash kare chhe; Pruthvi sarvane dhari rahi chhe; Samudra maryada nathi lopata; Oshadhio rutune pamine fale chhe; ane je Bhagwan jagatni utpatti, sthiti, pralayne kare chhe; ane jeni shakti kal chhe, maya chhe, Purush chhe, Akshar chhe. Evi rite je Bhagwanni motyapne samajato hoy tene jagatma evu shu padarth chhe te bandhan kare? Te kam, krodh, lobh, man, irshya, svad, sukshma vastra, dhan, stri tatha je je panch-vishay sambandhi padarth te ene koi bandhan kare nahi. Ka je, ene to sarvanu pariman kari rakhyu chhe je, Bhagwan te ava chhe ne avo e Bhagwanna bhajan, smaran, katha-vartane vishe mal chhe ane Akshar te avo chhe ne avu e Akshar sambandhi sukh chhe tatha Golok, Vaikunth, Shvetdvip sambandhi sukh te avu chhe tatha Prakruti-Purush sambandhi sukh te avu chhe ane Brahmalok sambandhi sukh te avu chhe ne swargnu sukh te avu chhe tatha rajyadiknu sukh te avu chhe. Evi rite e sarvana sukhnu anuman karine ane Bhagwanna sukhne sarvathi adhik manine je Bhagwanne vishe jodano hoy tene evo kyo padarth chhe te Bhagwanna charanarvindthi pade? Koi na pade. Jem parasmani hoy te koik lodhane adine tenu sonu thayu, te sonu pachhu parasmaninu karyu pan lodhu thay nahi; tem evu jene Bhagwannu mahatmya janyu chhe te Bhagwanno padyo pan te Bhagwanna charanarvindthi pade nahi, to shu bije padarthe karine e pade?

Tem eva Bhagwanna sant hoy tene agal man kem rahe? Ane tene namay kem nahi? Tene agal to dasanudas thaine rahevay. Ane pach pach khasada mare to pan khame ane em samaje je, ‘Mara mota bhagya thaya je eva santno hu tiraskar sahu chhu.

Jem Mumbaino gavarnar saheb khurasi nakhine betho hoy ne teni sabhama koi garib manas jay ne tene khurasi na nakhi de ne adar koi na kare, tyare kai ene te Ingrej upar dhokho thay chhe? Ne kai tene gal didhanu manma thay chhe? Leshmatra pan thatu nathi. Sha mate je, e Ingrejni motai jani chhe je, ‘E to mulakno padashah chhe ne hu to kangal chhu,’ evu janine dhokho thay nahi. Tem jo santni motai jani hoy to te sant game tevo tiraskar kare to pan dhokho thay nahi ane jetalo le etalo potano avagun le pan santno avagun to koi rite le ja nahi.
