Chit Quote by Dada Bhagwan
““There may or may not be egoism along with a contented state of chit (internal component of knowledge and vision). There are many saints who have contented chit along with egoism. It begins with contented chit and ends all the way to where egoism ends. But from the moment contented state of chit begins, people can do his darshan (view him devotionally). However, the combination of an egoless person with a contented chit is simply incredible.””
