Adjustment Quote by Dada Bhagwan
““Our talk must ‘adjust’ to others. If our talk does not adjust to others, then it is our mistake only. It is not mistake in entirely, but there is some mistake of ours. If the mistake is destroyed, one will adjust. Vitrags (The Enlightened Ones) talk is of ‘Everywhere Adjustment’.””
