SHRIMAD RAJCHANDRA
At Khambhat in 1896, Shrimad gave a sermon from the terrace of Shri Chhotalal Manekchand's house. There was no room left to even step in the house. People even spilled over on the streets to listen to him. They were spell-bound in amazement as all doubts were quelled in every individual heart!
In 1898, he went for a walk with Shri Motilalbhai at Uttarsanda.
Why are you not arousing yourself from worldly stupor ? In the present age, the spiritual path is strewn with thorns. To remove such obstacles, I have to undergo unimaginable trouble. You, who have the good fortune to be in the presence of a truly realised soul, are still not spiritually awakened. Shake off worldly slumber and be vigilant. When I was the last disciple of Bhagwan Mahavir, a slight lapse of vigilance on my part resulted in my having to undergo so many re-births. It is indeed rare for an individual to recognise a truly realised soul.
