Sadhus Have no Grudge
Book, Sreela Bhakti Ballabh Tirtha Goswami Maharaj
-
Sadhus have no personal grudge against anybody in this world, but for the eternal benefit of all, they refute anti-devotional contentions only to save sincere souls from being misled. If we attack those proponents with a hostile mentality, the bad qualities of the pseudo sects will come to us and we will have a spiritual fall. Even if persons of those protagonists come to the sadhus, the sadhus pay respect to them and serve them with prasada because they have no personal grudge. If the protagonists sincerely want to hear pure devotional conclusive thoughts, sadhus speak to them mildly, establish devotional conclusions and expose the defects of anti-devotional ideas. But they remain silent when they find the person has come not to hear sincerely, but to present pedantic arguments. Shuddha bhaktas do not like idle talks. They have no desire to speak unnecessarily because they want to engage themselves fully for the service of God and His devotees. They know they could leave this most perishable world at any moment. They are completely disinterested in non-eternal worldly affairs. Real aspirants utilise their time for actual benefit, they have no time to find faults and criticise others.
