Gadhada I-10: The Ungrateful Sevakrām

Summary

1. How Mahārāj served Sevakrām:

1. Prepared a bed of banana leaves one-and-a-half feet high under that banyan tree.
2. Washed him as Sevakrām was suffering from dysentery (bloody diarrhoea).
3. Brought ingredients, cooked, and fed him; but Mahārāj ate the food He got from begging. Some days Mahārāj fasted but Sevakrām never gave him food to eat.
4. He served him until he recovered fully but Sevakrām made Mahārāj carry his belongings weighing 20 kg while he walked empty-handed.

2. Ungrateful:

1. Is one who does not appreciate favours done by others.
2. If a person has atoned for a sin as according to the scriptures, then whoever still considers him a sinner should himself be known as a sinner just like an ungrateful person.
