The world surrenders to the person who knows well About taste, sight, touch, sound and smell. *** Disciple: Guruji, How such realized persons are treated? Guru: Before the feet of great persons The world bows down itself, They're well respected men. There's no doubt on this. Swami Vivekananda, the disciple Of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Is a typical example, as even today The whole world glorifies him. They're sent as messengers By God to teach people How to develop in their minds Always God consciousness. *** திருக்குறள் -Thirukkural அதிகாரம் 3 - துறவின் சிறப்பு - Chapter 3 - In Praise of Ascetics *** 03/08. நிறைமொழி மாந்தர் பெருமை நிலத்து மறைமொழி காட்டி விடும். 03/08.

Is this true? Guru: Yes, it's true, their words cast a spell As they can foresee events well. They can reveal past, present and future, With their divine power. Their intuition works like an ESP, Meaning Extra Sensory Perception, They can tell on the spot any event What happened, happens, or will happen. More than that, they get divine power To foretell from their subconscious mind The events of past, present and future We've seen many such men in our time also. *** திருக்குறள் -Thirukkural அதிகாரம் 3 - துறவின் சிறப்பு - Chapter 3 - In Praise of Ascetics *** 03/09. குணம்என்னும் குன்றேறி நின்றார் வெகுளி கணமேயும் காத்தல் அரிது. 03/09.

A sage even at the peak of his divine life Cannot suppress his anger when he is angry. *** Disciple: There are many stories like Viswamitra, Durvasa getting angry Though they were realized souls. Guru: Yes, though they were angry It was for some divine purposes To happen for good in their time As if everything was pre-determined. But normally an angry man Shuts his eyes and opens His mouth, what they say, And we also see this way. The food one eats also Determines one's nature, Like thamasic, sathvic, And rajasic food taken. Thamasic food gives laziness. Sathvic food soft nature. Rajasic food fighting nature, Thus food also a reason for anger. *** திருக்குறள் -Thirukkural அதிகாரம் 3 - துறவின் சிறப்பு - Chapter 3 - In Praise of Ascetics *** 03/10. அந்தணர் என்போர் அறவோர்; மற்றெவ்வுயிர்க்கும் செந்தண்மை பூண்டொழுக லான். 03/10.

Guru: One who eats vegetarian food, And not any spicy food That'll provoke anger This much is better. Beside this, one should extend His love for all living beings Treating them as God's gift To His world of creations. Hate no one. Love everyone. This is the man, God wants this man. ***
