Are We Ready for Bhagawan I have to come to correct the Buddhi, the intelligence, by various means. I have come to counsel, help, command, condemn and stand by as a friend and well-wisher to all, so that they may give up evil propensities and, recognising the straight mark, tread it and reach the goal. I have to reveal to the people the worth of the Vedas, the Sastras and the spiritual texts, which lay down the norms. If you will accept me and say, “Yes”, I too will respond and say ‘Yes, Yes, Yes’. If you deny and say “No, I also echo “No”. Come, examine, experience, have faith.
