Swajan : Mota, can we free ourselves from thoughts and inner natural tendencies if we have ignited bhava in our hearts towards you?
Pujya Shree Mota : When bhava develops in the heart by the will to inquire regarding development of spiritual life, there is a change in the inner instruments like thoughts, feelings and natural tendencies. It is not like we get freedom from these vrutties. It gets sublimated naturally as the bhava takes the hold in the heart just as kite can be flown easily if there is a force of the wind behind it. This is not just the matter of inference but can be experienced.
There is harmony in the vrutties, thoughts etc when bhava develops. It is not true bhava if that does not happen.When bhava is produced one gets engrossed in it just like when someone gets angry and looses the awareness of the surrounding. Usually our understanding and talk of the bhava is not believable. So it is better if we realize and be alert regarding evaluation of bhava. If there is real bhava in your heart towards me, you can definitely help me. In my understanding real bhava can never be just in thoughts but needs to be executed in dynamic fashion.
Swajan : This seems to be entirely different from my understanding of bhava.
Pujya Shree Mota : Yes, bhava is dynamic. Dynamic means the condition that guide us towards the sublimation of vrutties and then enters this process of sublimation of vrutties. We will go nowhere without this kind of bhava. It is not bhava if it does not touch mind, thoughts, etc.
