“A few are so born who confuse dhal for boiled rice and take great pleasure in this confusion”
Transmission of the Master or because of the Grace of the Master ever flowing to us is not correct. We have to do our duty. These are Commandments and therefore should be implemented. It may take time but one is sure to meet with success with determination and dependency on Master.
3. Due attachment (Vairagya): We generally confuse ourselves that “due attachment” means detaching ourselves with everything and everybody and live in aloofness. We also enjoy in that state. Where as Master says “we are trustee of God and there are people who have been entrusted to us. What shall be our responsibility towards them? One of trust, God has kept his trust in us. That we will be behaving like God for others who are kept in our care, we have to be a trustee. We should know that whoever is attached to us is basically of the Divine and for the Divine and not for us. This is trusteeship. We have to discharge our responsibilities to our people who are around us. To the society, to the world, to the universe we have responsibilities to keep”. Vairagya, defined in this system as due attachment, can be developed very easily if one only diverts his attention towards Divine/God.
Our Pujya sir says that “Viveka stresses the need for determination. If we do not have a determination, and not prepared to gird up our loins, we are not surely going to have Viveka. The concept of Vairagya is directly connected to the concept of Viveka. In tradition they are generally called two 'Bhushanam' or two ornaments we should have in the path of spirituality- "Jnana, V airagya Bhushanam". If we don't have these two, Viveka which is otherwise called 'Jnana' and Vairagya we are not likely to move far in the path of spirituality.
