If any devotee meditated on Him, day and night, with complete self-surrender, he experienced complete union (without any difference) with Him like sweetness and sugar, waves and sea, eye and its lustre.  He, who wants to get rid of the cycle of births and deaths should lead a righteous life with his mind calm and composed.

He replied that nobody should take the labour of others, in vain.  The worker should be paid, his dues promptly and liberally.  If the principle taught by Baba be followed , i.e., if the remuneration for labour be paid promptly and satisfactorily, the labourers will turn out better work and both the labourers and their employers will be profited, and there will be no room for lockouts and strikes, no ill feeling between labour and Capital.

There was a rich gentleman (unfortunately his name and whereabouts are not mentioned), who was very prosperous in his life.  He had amassed a large quantity of wealth, houses, fields and lands, and had many servants and dependents.  When Baba's fame reached his ears, he said to a friend of his, that he was not in want of anything, and so he would go to Shirdi and ask Baba to give him Brahma-Jnana which, if he got, would certainly make him more happy.

"Oh my dear friend, do not be anxious, I shall immediately show you the Brahman;  all My dealings are in cash and never on credit.  So many people come to Me, and ask for wealth, health, power, honour, position, cure of diseases and other temporal matters.  Rare is the person, who comes here to Me and asks for Brahma-Jnana.  There is no dearth of persons asking for worldly things, but as persons interested in spiritual matters are very rare.  I think it a lucky and auspicious moment, when persons like you come and press Me for Brahma -Jnana.  So forthwith, I show to you with pleasure, the Brahman with all its accompaniments and complications."

That gentleman had a roll or bundle of currency notes in his pocket, and if he was really earnest, he would not have sat quiet and be a mere onlooker, when Baba was frantically trying to get or raise a paltry sum of Rs. five.  He knew that Baba would keep His word and repay the debt and that the sum wanted was insignificant.  Still he could not make up his mind and advance the sum.  Such a man wanted from baba the greatest thing in the world, viz., the Brahma-Jnana!  Any other man who really loved Baba, would have given to him at once Rs. five, instead of being a mere onlooker.  It was otherwise with this man.  He advanced no money nor did he sit silent but began to be impatient, as he was in a haste to return and implored Baba Saying "Oh Baba. please show me the Brahman soon".

"Baba, hearing that you show without any delay, the Brahman to all, who come over here, I too have come here all the way from my distant place.  I am much fatigued by the journey and if I get the Brahman from You, my troubles will be well-paid and rewarded."

"it is not easy to know Brahman, and especially, so for an avaricious man like you, who is always engrossed in wealth, wife and children.  Who will, in your quest of Brahma-Jnana, satisfy you, who won't give away even a pice in charity?"
