Dada BhagwanIf you want to attain moksha (ultimate liberation), then you cannot give unsolicited advice. Give advice only when it is asked for. In order to give advice, you have to become the chief!
About This Quote
We all know how important it is to give advice when asked for. However, this doesn’t mean you can give any advice you wish to anyone at anytime. To give advice without check, you have to become the chief. Moksha (liberation/enlightenment) is not attained by giving unsolicited advice.
Rather, it comes through doing what is right when asked to do so. It is only then that you will truly be emancipated from the bonds of karma. This is because you will have earned the respect of everyone in the world, including yourself.
