gas, as they are difficult to digest and gas goes towards the mind and the people practicing Kashaf, have to be careful because of dryness in the mind, mistakes may happen in the Kashaf and due to the dryness of the people, there will be a doubt of mistake in their experience.
One person has enquired, about the reasons, for the present day gurus ordering their disciples that they should not think about the teachings of the previous elders or gurus, but they should only follow the instructions given now. The teachings of a vali, elder, guru and Avatar, who are no more, should not be paid any attention rather should not think about them. Then only benefit will happen. You have answered that, it is not like that, I have advised the seekers to be interested only in me and not to pay any attention to the other elders and elders who are no more. On the other hand, the truth is that people come to me with interest in this benefit and not with any other interest. Now, after training a person in a method, is advised to follow this method and that person goes to a second, then third and then to fourth teacher and wants to follow the matters heard in their company, then, is it possible to give benefit to him, as desired. It is said that a person who is at one place is every where and a person who is every where is no where. The condition of having one interest/aim, is the rule of the method. If a method is selected, it should be followed and do not hope to reach the goal if many methods are followed. In addition, there is a change in the conditions, events, bringing up, education, of the previous elders and the climate, customs, disposition, health, of those times also have also been changed. In that case, if the practice is done according to the present times and it does not suite his health and disposition and it leads to a loss instead of profit, it brings bad name to the guru, unnecessarily. Therefore, if they are not restrained to sit in the company of others, there is a possibility for them to become unscrupulous. Nowadays, there is predominance of selfishness. If a person changes his company to other group, they will try to remove his faith from the roots, due to the jealousy and enmity and they find defects in a wink, even though there may or may not be any defect in their education. Persons of less intelligence can not understand that they are being ruined. Therefore let it be according to their wish, as nothing can be done. There are plenty of persons here also, who are in the company of such people. They are hoping to get benefit from all, but in fact they are wasting their time. These people are an example of a goat which is made fatter by giving plenty of fodder and it was shown a wolf in the night. The goat which became fatty by over eating during the day becomes thin during the night due to fear. These people made clever by intense efforts, ruin them selves by going to other places. May God be kind to such people and open their eyes.
