Lobha

or Greed

B-: Never accept gratis the labour (or, of course property) of others. This should be

the rule of your life.

Baba said this, as he paid Rs.2/- to a man who brought him a

ladder to get down from the top of a house.

Baba Nana Saheb Chandorkar.: This man has left a box with us and wants

it back. It is not proper to refuse. We must give him back what is

his. -*

Baba (to Jayagvdi Bala Nev. jaskar): Return the lands to the children (i.e., the

lessors),,. Why trouble

them?

This was said to Bala Newaskar who

was a lessee of Kshirasagar's lands, the proceeds of

which were given to Bala. but Bala refused to retirn the lands.

Baba (to Attai):

It

is Anna (your father) that eats your property. Let him eat. Do not sue him. God

will give you plenty.

Baba (to Jog): Do not go to the

debtor's village to ask for your money. The debtor himself will come here.

Jog: Will he himself come? How will

he? The time for recovery of the debt is nearly over.

Baba: Wait.

Jog waited beyond limitation time and the debtor himself

came and paid the debt, viz., Rs.I,400/- the principal without interest.
