In this way Baba went on giving instructions whenever necessary.  If these are born in our minds and acted upon, the spiritual goal (realization) is not far off.

Sai Baba has His own method of correcting the scandal-monger.  He knew by His omniscience, what the slandered had done and when He met him at noon near the Lendi, Baba pointed out to him a pig that was eating filth near the fence and said to him- "Behold how, with what relish it is gorging dung.  your conduct is similar.  You go on reviling your own brethren to your heart's content.  After performing many deeds of merit, you are born as a man, and if you act like this, will Shirdi help you in any way?"

Saints see scandal, in another light.  They say that there are various ways of cleansing or removing dirt, viz., by means of earth, water and soap etc., but a scandal-monger has got a way of his own.

Generally, we see that people have a tendency to scandalize others, un-necessarily; and this brings on hatred and ill-will.

Once it so happened that a Bhakta of Baba, reviled another behind his back, before other people.  On leaving aside merits, he dwelt on the faults of his brother, and spoke so sarcastically that the hearers were disgusted.
