Gadhada 1-11: Vāsanā; An Ekāntik Bhakta
<p>On <a href="https://anirdesh.com/vachanamrut/index.php?format=en&vachno=11#">Māgshar</a> sudi 14, Samvat 1876 [30 November 1819], Shriji Mahārāj was sitting in Dādā Khāchar’s darbār in Gadhadā. He was dressed entirely in white clothes. At that time, an assembly of munis, as well as devotees from various places, had gathered before Him.</p> <p>Thereupon Brahmānand Swāmi asked, “Mahārāj, what is the nature of ‘vāsanā’?”</p> <p>Shriji Mahārāj explained, “A desire within the antahkaran to enjoy vishays that have been previously seen, heard or indulged in is called ‘vāsanā’. Moreover, a desire within the antahkaran to enjoy those vishays that have not been previously indulged in is also called ‘vāsanā’.”</p> <p>Thereafter Muktānand Swāmi asked, “Mahārāj, who can be called an ekāntik bhakta of God?”</p> <p>Shriji Mahārāj replied, “A person who has no ‘vāsanā’ except that of God and who offers bhakti to God realizing himself to be brahmarup is called an ekāntik bhakta.”</p>

Gadhada 1-10- The Ungrateful Sevakrām
<p>On <a href="https://www.anirdesh.com/vachanamrut/index.php?format=en&vachno=10#">Māgshar</a> sudi 13, Samvat 1876 [29 November 1819], Shriji Mahārāj was sitting in Dādā Khāchar’s darbār in Gadhadā. He was dressed entirely in white clothes. At that time, an assembly of paramhansas, as well as devotees from various places, had gathered before Him.</p> <p>Thereupon Shriji Mahārāj said, “Once when I was traveling from Venkatādri to Setubandh Rāmeshwar, I encountered a sādhu by the name of Sevakrām. He had studied the <a href="https://www.anirdesh.com/vachanamrut/index.php?format=en&vachno=10#">Shrimad Bhāgwat</a> and the other <a href="https://www.anirdesh.com/vachanamrut/index.php?format=en&vachno=10#">Purāns</a>. But it so happened that during his journey, he fell ill. He had a thousand rupees worth of gold coins with him, but since he had no one to nurse him, he began to cry. I consoled him, saying, ‘Do not worry about anything; I shall serve you.’</p> <p>“On the outskirts of the village was a banana grove which had a banyan tree within which a thousand ghosts lived. Because that sādhu had become extremely ill and was unable to walk any further, I felt extreme pity for him. I prepared a bed of banana leaves one-and-a-half feet high under that banyan tree. As the sādhu was suffering from dysentery and was passing blood, I would wash him and attend to him.</p> <p>“The <a href="https://www.anirdesh.com/vachanamrut/index.php?format=en&vachno=10#">sādhu</a> would give Me enough of his money to buy sugar, sākar, ghee, and grains for himself. I would bring the ingredients, cook them, and then feed him. As for Myself, I would go to the village for My meals. On some days, when I did not receive any food from the village, I had to fast. Despite this, that sādhu never once said to Me, ‘I have enough money. Cook for both of us so that You may dine with me.’</p> <p>“After serving the sādhu for two months in this way, he began to recover. Thereafter, as we walked towards Setubandh Rāmeshwar, he made Me carry his belongings weighing about 20 kgs, whereas he would walk with only a rosary in his hand. By then, he was healthy and capable of digesting half a kilogram of ghee, yet he would make Me carry his load while he walked empty-handed. In actual fact, My nature was such that I would not keep even a handkerchief with Me. But respecting him as a sādhu, I walked carrying his belongings weighing 20 kgs.</p> <p>“Although I served that <a href="https://www.anirdesh.com/vachanamrut/index.php?format=en&vachno=10#">sādhu</a> and helped him recover, he did not offer Me even a single paisa worth of food. Therefore, realizing him to be ungrateful, I abandoned his company. In this way, a person who does not appreciate favors done by others should be known as an ungrateful person.</p> <p>“In addition, if a person has committed a sin but has also performed the prescribed atonement for it as laid down in the scriptures, then whoever still considers him a sinner should himself be known as a sinner just like an ungrateful person.”</p>

Gadhada 1-9: Desiring Nothing Except God
<p>On <a href="https://anirdesh.com/vachanamrut/index.php?format=en&vachno=9#">Māgshar</a> sudi 12, Samvat 1876 [28 November 1819], Shriji Mahārāj was sitting in Dādā Khāchar’s darbār in Gadhadā. He was dressed entirely in white clothes. At that time, an assembly of munis, as well as devotees from various places, had gathered before Him.</p> <p>Thereupon Shriji Mahārāj said, “Suppose a person has developed a conviction of the manifest form of Shri Krishna Bhagwān, offers bhakti to Him and does His darshan. But, despite this, he still does not consider himself fulfilled and feels a deficiency within his antahkaran instead; that is, ‘As long as I have not seen the radiant form of this very same God in <a href="https://anirdesh.com/vachanamrut/index.php?format=en&vachno=9#">Golok</a>, <a href="https://anirdesh.com/vachanamrut/index.php?format=en&vachno=9#">Vaikunth</a>, and the other abodes, I have not attained ultimate liberation.’ Even talks about God should not be heard from a person with such ignorance.</p> <p>“Conversely, if a person has firm faith in the manifest form of God and believes himself to be fulfilled merely by His darshan and desires nothing else, then God Himself forcefully shows him His divine powers and forms in His abodes.</p> <p>“Therefore, one with singular faith in God should desire nothing except the manifest form of God.”</p>
