In the Samvat year 1876, on the eleventh day of the bright half of the month of Margashirsh, Shreeji Maharaj was seated in the Darbar of Dada Khachar in Gadhada. He had put on all white garments. Saints and devotees from various places had gathered before Him in an assembly.
Then Shreeji Maharaj said, “If the activities of the organs of senses are directed towards the service of Lord Shree Krushna and His devotees, one’s heart becomes pure, and the sins attached to him from times immemorial are redeemed. But if these activities are directed towards fulfillment of the desire for women and other such objects, his heart becomes polluted and he falls from the path of his ultimate good. Therefore one should enjoy the objects of senses in the manner prescribed by the Holy Scriptures. You should never transgress the limits prescribed by the scriptures. You should always be in the company of saints and avoid the company of the wicked. Only when a person leaves the company of the wicked and seeks the company of saints, his attachment for the body and its relatives will disappear, and he will develop intense love for God and become unattached to everything except God.”
