________________ Aptavani-4 327 everything else. Alas, would he have allowed himself to go bald? He would rather have a jungle of hair on his head, than a dry patch of 'desert'! But here, some have become deserts and in many other places they have become jungles! You do not have any control (satta) in your hands. A single tiny toothache makes you cry out loud! Fruit According to Bhaav! Aside from doing inner intent (bhaav), we do not have the power to do anything else. Even your inner intent (bhaav) should not be expressed. When you do inner intent, the ego is always behind it. Except for the attainment of moksha, it is not worth having any other kind of ego.

If someone makes the inner intent, 'I want to sort these people out,' his inner intent (bhaav) gets 'deposited' by Nature and becomes ‘noted'. And when the time comes for Nature to ‘sort them out, it draws all the necessary circumstances towards the nimit who had made the bhaav. So for the person who made the inner intent (bhaav), the event that he made the bhaav for, occurs. The world continues to do bhaav and abhaav. Bhaavabhaav (relative positive and negative intent) is in itself attachment-abhorrence (raag-dwesh). When 'we' give You the knowledge of the Self, from that time onwards, You stop making bhaav, as 'we' put a halt to both the positive and the negative bhaav for you. But when a prior bhaav comes forth to fruition, you wonder why you have such a bhaav. Actually, it is not a bhaav, but a desire (ichchha; a wish). The Difference between Bhaav and Ichchha Questioner: What is considered bhaav? Dadashri: What is considered a real bhaav? It is not
