“Donon kaam nahin ban sakte. Bhakti Guru ki karoge, tho jagath se todni padegi aur jagath se rakhoge, tho bhakti mein kasar padegi. So iss baath ka niyama nahin hai. Jinke ache sanskar hain aur Satguru ki Kripa hai, unke donon kaam bakhoobi banthe chale javenge, kuchh dikkath nahin padegi aur jinke sanskar nikrusht hain, unse ek hee kaam banega.”

Its simple translation into English may be rendered as follows:

“Both the things can’t be done. If you perform devotion to the Guru, you will have to break with the world and if you keep with the world, you will lapse in your devotion. So there is no rule in this matter. Those who possess good sanskaras {or tendencies} and the Satguru’s Grace will be enabled success in both the spheres, without any difficulty, but those with faulty sanskaras will be able to manage only one sphere.”

Radhasoami!
