Qualities of Gyani Bhakt

To become bhakt of Almighty we have to surrender fully to God and not in bits and parts. We are born full, not in bits and parts. Same is the case with Death.

To become Gyani Bhakt, there are certain qualities which we should have.
First and foremost is that we must not feel jealous of others. We should not have feeling of hatred towards others. We are filled with hatred and jealousy. How can we claim to be the true bhakt. Think peacefully and introspect that why do we hate somebody. Find the root cause and once you know it, the feeling will disappear and you will feel relaxed. The reason of all ailments like depression, blood pressure etc is this deep rooted feeling of hatred and jealousy. We think we are inferior to other. But when the Almighty, the creator of this Universe is with you, why should you feel low and jealous. The person against whom we feel jealous is also his creation. Maybe whatever the other person has is because the God wanted it that way. So be happy that your are blessed, you have no diseases, you are healthy.

There was an old lady. She was ninety years old, death was very near her. Her whole body had shrunk and only bones could be visible. There was nobody to look after her, she was sick and could not move also. Naradji happen to pass her house. He saw her in this condition, he felt sorry for her and pitied her. He went near her and said "You have become old and sick, if you want I can make you look young and healthy". She looked at Naradji, saw that he is the same Narad with Veena, choti and khadau and was sure that he is capable of fulfilling her wish.

She said "Naradji, if you really want to fulfill my wish, want to give me vardaan then don't make me young, beautiful and healthy, just give me this vardaan that in this village where I am staying, everybody in this village should suffer and become like me".

Just don't laugh and take this as a story. This old lady is sitting in the corner every human heart. We are mostly like the old lady. She could have become young and beautiful woman with Naradji's blessings, but she ruined her own life. We very often miss such beautiful opportunities in our life. There is so much of hatred and jealousy filled in our heart that we don't want to improve but want others also to lose, suffer and become like us.
