Sri Swami Samarth always insisted that dishonest and unscrupulous people are social problem and everybody should get rid of them. Swamiji wanted his devotees to do persistent efforts and also wanted his devotes to stay away from lazy people. Swamiji wants his disciples to toil hard like a bull. If Wamiji sees anyone sitting idle without doing any work and thinking aimlessly, Swamiji used to ask that person whether he doesn’t have a bull in him. Swamiji guided his devotees to work hard and earn their own bread and butter. Swamiji gave teachings of karma yoga (Path of Action) to his disciples.
God is in You
Swamiji always said that God is there in every human being. Swamiji believed and told his disciples that whatever good or bad things happen in one’s life are due to Swamiji’s wish. Whatever happens in the life should be accepted with happiness. He never allowed anyone to hurt animals. For Swamiji, the devotee who set their mind and heart on Him constantly and do the worship to Him was dear to Swamiji as a baby is to their mother. Swamiji is God for his disciples and it has been proved many times through his miracles and guidance on many deserving devotees.
