106 Pratikraman Questioner: I had talked to people but they do not understand how good and logical Dada’s science is. They are not even ready to understand that much. Dadashri: That is what I am saying. They are not ready to understand this. They do not want to go deep into this. This is something new and contrary to what they believe, understand, do and accept; and they are afraid of it. Questioner: They believe this is wrong because it is contrary to what the world believes. Dadashri: Yes. Questioner: And the other thing is that they feel, ‘Should I let go of what I have done all my life?’ Dadashri: Yes, ‘Will all that I did go to waste?’! They will have to get rid of that fear, will they not? Questioner: That is the main point. Dadashri: The Guru Maharaj will say, ‘There is lot of misery, but we will put up with the way it (the traditional path) has been going on.’ So I tell them, ‘Hey, you! You can make do with it but why don’t you let your disciples change?’ So to that he will say, ‘No. I will be alone. What will I do?’ That is how it is. This disease of wrong belief (mithyatva) has spread; nature is responsible for spreading this disease. And it is also nature that will turn it around. ‘We’ are just the instrument (the nimit) in all this. There was no essence or substance in the old path and that is why this new one has come about. The one without substance was believed to be the one with substance. That is why Krupadudev Shrimad Rajchandra has said, ‘I have created an opportunity for you to lose everything. An opportunity of losing everything has come.’ (98)
