In plain words
“Before Rāma I am humble. Before Rāvaṇa I am a great hero,” he said. “Where have you come from?” Rāvaṇa asked. “I have entered this Laṅkā in order to carry out the command of my Lord Rāma,” he said. “You have come, but why did you eat all the fruit?” he said. “I was hungry, so I ate,” he said. “Why did you pluck all those flowers and throw them away?” he said. “Those flowers are not yours or mine. My Lord created them. As much right as you have, I have as much,” he said. “Then why did you uproot all these trees and throw them away?” he said. “That is natural to me,” he said. “Then why did you kill all our demons?” he said. “They came to kill me. To protect myself, I killed them,” he said. Hanumān went on giving answers like these to each question. In not a single word was there any untruth or any kind of deceit. Taking Rāma's command on his head, he kept to the word of truth. “My Lord is Śrī Rāmacandramūrti. I am His servant. His command alone is what matters to me”: Hanumān is the one who proclaimed Bhakti and prapatti to the world in this way.
Today, as the Lord is, so must the servants become. To call ourselves devotees of Sāī, and to follow a path that is the opposite of it! We become people who have entered the path of untruth. We must conduct ourselves as befits Sāī's ideals. We must offer an exemplary life. We must take the command on our heads. However many hardships, however many sorrows come, we must regard carrying out the command as our duty. While keeping this command, we must give no room at all to selfishness and self-interest. That alone is the true meaning of Bhakti. We must enter this work with trikaraṇa śuddhi. “Since they have said something, all this discipline has to be followed. If we do not follow it, who knows, they may send us out”: you must not live merely with that fear. “This is the duty of my life. This is my goal”: so you must feel. There is no use in your staying here and practising it by force. You will have no Śānti. We will have no joy. Only when there is a way of practising discipline properly should it be practised wholeheartedly. You must not enter this discipline out of fear or out of any other kind of worry. If you come in that way, you only become one who has betrayed yourself. You only become one who has deceived yourself. No one is deceiving you. They become people who have betrayed the Ātma. In every single matter you must recognise the Satya, “This is the holy path for my future.” To keep thinking, Bhakti, Bhakti. To get into other people's talk. This is how the world is today: it gives no thought at all to holy things. It lends its ears quickly to unholy things.
