- Maataji has very nicely explained the difference between a Gyani “Intellect” and a Bhakta “Devotee”. If anything goes wrong, unfavorable to our expectations, a Gyani “Intellect” thinks that it is his fate, time is bad, he has done something bad either in this birth or in previous birth, therefore, he is suffering / passing through bad phase. But a real Bhakta, a true Devotee enjoys even the pain, suffering and bad times and things, thinking that it is the mercy of Krishna that whatever bad he is undergoing is only to purify his body, heart, mind and soul, but for nothing else. A Devotee gains strength, belief & confidence in God.
